About The Prop Standard
Published in the United Kingdom. We cover evaluation prop firms, funded trader programmes, payout reliability, and regulatory pressure—without selling evaluations ourselves.
Ownership and the network
The Prop Standard is one of four sites under common ownership. The others are propfirmpal.com, which maintains the firm dataset, the calculators and the glossary this publication links to; propweekly.com, the network's news desk; and proptechpal.com, a directory of the technology vendors prop firms buy from. Some firms listed on Prop Firm Pal carry affiliate links, which is how the network is funded. No firm pays for coverage here, for a favourable conclusion, or to be left out — the full standard is set out in our editorial policy, and the byline is explained on who writes this.
Our mission
Independent reporting on prop trading firms: news, payouts, reviews, and analysis. Readers use our reporting to compare firms, understand rule changes, and follow payout trends across X and public filings when they exist.
Editorial independence
We are not a broker or prop firm. Nothing on this site is personalised financial advice. Always verify live terms before purchasing a challenge or scaling a funded account.
Trust, privacy, and contact
Read our privacy policy, terms, disclaimer, and contact page for corrections, ads, and editorial enquiries.
Frequently asked questions
Who owns and publishes The Prop Standard?
The Prop Standard is published from the United Kingdom as part of a small network of prop trading sites: propfirmpal.com (firm data and comparison), propweekly.com (industry news) and proptechpal.com (technology and vendor directory). It is not owned by any proprietary trading firm or broker, and no firm reviews its coverage before publication.
How does The Prop Standard make money?
We may run display advertising and affiliate links where clearly disclosed. Advertising does not dictate our reporting on payouts, rule changes, or firm conduct; corrections and updates follow primary sources.
Can I quote your prop firm coverage?
Yes with attribution and a link to the original article. For syndication or commercial reuse, contact us via the contact page first.
