How we score

Ranked firms are scored on the same six dimensions at the same weights. Nothing else moves a score, and no firm can pay to change one. The same weights run across our full prop firm review index, sorted best first. Perpetuals programs use product-specific scores, ranked highest first.

Four caps override the maths. Payout reliability stops at 6.5 without twelve months of verified history. Transparency stops at 5.0 when pricing or core rules are unpublished. No firm scores above 7.0 in its first twelve months. Anything at 8.5 or higher needs three years of verified payouts. Read the full methodology

Firms that stopped operating. We keep reviews of firms that shut down or stopped paying, with the reason and the date we delisted them, so you can check a name before you pay for a challenge.

Active discount codes. We track live coupon codes for the firms on this page, so you are not paying full price for a challenge.
