Editorial independence
What money can and can't buy
We sell visibility. We don’t sell verdicts. Traders can only trust the sites if those two never mix.
Can be bought
- A listing, once your firm passes our checks
- A sponsored article, labelled "Sponsored"
- Top Placement above the deal list, labelled "Sponsored"
Can't be bought
- An eligibility verdict for any country
- Removing or softening a warning
- Changing how we quote your terms, or the date we read them
- A code-test result
- Your position in the editorial list
- An unlabelled sponsored article or link
Sponsored is always labelled
Anything paid for carries a visible Sponsored label. Links in sponsored articles and placements use rel="sponsored", as Google’s guidelines for paid links require. We say this plainly because it’s the point: readers can tell paid content from our checks at a glance.
The same method for everyone
Every firm is checked the same way, whether it pays us or not: its own terms and restricted-country list, quoted word for word and dated; its checkout tested; its code tested. A firm that pays for a listing still has to pass. A firm that doesn’t pay can still be covered, including with a warning.
When a paying firm changes its terms
The verdict follows the terms. If a listed firm closes a country, the site for that country says so. If a firm stops paying out as its terms state, we can delist it. Fees already paid don’t buy an exception, and they aren’t refunded.
Not advice
Our sites report what firms publish and what their checkouts do. They are not investment advice, and prop-firm challenges are not regulated investment products.
