Browse the guidesHow prop firms work
A prop firm gives you a trading account to manage in exchange for a share of the profit. You pay for an evaluation, reach a profit target without breaking the daily or maximum loss limit, and then trade a funded account. Splits run 15-100% across the firms here, and a $100,000 account costs $15 to $997 to start.
The headline split rarely decides which firm is right. The drawdown type, any consistency rule, the payout schedule and the platform matter more, and they differ a lot between firms in the same market. That is what the comparison tool and the rules comparison line up.
Where to start
- Not sure which market — read crypto vs forex vs futures, or take the firm quiz.
- Know your market — open the futures, forex or crypto hub for the directory and top picks.
- Shortlist in mind — put them side by side in the comparison tool and check their rules.
- Ready to buy — grab a code from the deals page before you pay full price.
Before you pay for anything
The question that matters most is whether a firm actually pays. The payout tracker records real on-chain withdrawals as they settle, and firms that stopped paying are on the delisted firms page. New to all of this? Start with the beginner guide, how to pass a challenge and the glossary.
Prop firm FAQs
The questions traders ask before their first account.
What is a prop firm?
A proprietary trading firm funds traders with its capital. You pay for an evaluation, reach a profit target without breaking the loss limits, then trade a funded account and keep most of the profit, usually 15-100% depending on the firm and program. The evaluation fee is your only real cost.
How do prop firms work?
You buy a challenge at a set account size, for example $50,000 or $100,000. Hit the profit target while staying inside the daily and maximum loss limits, and you move to a funded account. From there you request payouts on the firm’s schedule. Most funded accounts are simulated, and the payout is your share of that simulated profit.
Futures, forex or crypto: which prop firm should I choose?
Trade the market you already know. Futures firms suit index and commodity day traders and are open to US traders. Forex firms cover currency pairs, metals and indices with more leverage. Crypto firms trade around the clock, including weekends. The full breakdown is in crypto vs forex vs futures prop firms.
How many prop firms do you review?
57 firms across futures, forex and crypto, with 1,334 account sizes priced. A few firms cover two markets and are listed in both.
How much does a prop firm challenge cost?
A $100,000 account costs $15 to $997 across the firms here, depending on the market, the program and the discount. Futures firms often add an activation fee once you pass, so compare the full cost in the comparison tool, not just the sticker price.
Which prop firm is the best?
Are prop firms legit?
The established ones are, and you can check it instead of taking anyone’s word for it. The payout tracker shows real on-chain withdrawals, and firms that stopped paying are listed on the delisted firms page. Start small and request your first payout early.

Can US traders use prop firms?
Yes. Most futures prop firms are US-based or open to US traders. Many forex and crypto firms restrict US residents, so check the firm’s restricted countries first. See the best prop firms for US traders.
