Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: March 2026

βš–οΈ

FTC Required Disclosure: PropFirmRetiree is a participant in affiliate marketing programs. We earn commissions when you click certain links and sign up with prop firms we recommend. This disclosure is made in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's 16 CFR Part 255: β€œGuides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising.”

What Is an Affiliate Relationship?

PropFirmRetiree (propfirmretiree.com) participates in affiliate marketing programs operated by the futures prop firms reviewed and recommended on this website. When you click a link on our site labeled β€œVisit Site,” β€œTry [Firm] β†’,” or similar calls-to-action and subsequently sign up or purchase an evaluation account, PropFirmRetiree may receive a referral commission from that firm β€” at no additional cost to you.

Which Firms Do We Have Affiliate Relationships With?

We currently have, or may have, affiliate partnerships with some or all of the following futures prop firms listed on our site:

  • My Funded Futures β€” myfundedfutures.com
  • Top One Futures β€” toponefutures.com
  • Elite Trader Funding β€” elitetraderfunding.com
  • Tradeify β€” tradeify.co
  • Topstep β€” topstep.com
  • Top One Trader β€” toponetrader.com
  • Lucid Trader Funding β€” lucidtrader.com
  • Apex Trader Funding β€” apextraderfunding.com
  • The Futures Desk β€” thefuturesdesk.com

This list may be updated as we add or remove firm partnerships. Affiliate status does not affect our editorial ranking or review scores.

Does This Affect Our Reviews or Rankings?

No. Our Retiree Rankings and firm review scores are determined by our own independent 100-point scoring methodology β€” evaluating payout reliability, rule simplicity, drawdown structure, cost, customer support, and other factors. Our editorial content is never paid for, sponsored, or influenced by affiliate fees.

A firm with which we have an affiliate relationship may rank lower than one without, if our honest evaluation warrants that result. We believe in recommending only what we would trade ourselves.

How Are Commissions Earned?

We typically earn a commission when a visitor clicks one of our tracked affiliate links and completes a qualifying action β€” such as purchasing a futures evaluation account. Commissions are paid by the prop firm, not by you, and do not increase the price you pay.

Why Do We Use Affiliate Programs?

Affiliate commissions help keep PropFirmRetiree free for you to use. Running an independent, ad-free, high-quality review site requires time, ongoing research, and server costs. Affiliate income allows us to maintain and grow this resource without charging readers or compromising our editorial standards with display advertising.

External Links & Third-Party Sites

This site contains links to third-party websites, including the prop firms reviewed here. PropFirmRetiree is not responsible for the content, privacy practices, or terms of service of those external sites. We encourage you to read each firm's rules, terms, and risk disclosures before making any purchase.

A Note on Promo Codes

We may share promo codes or discount links provided to us by prop firms. Using a promo code issued through PropFirmRetiree may result in us receiving referral credit. Promo codes are always disclosed in context and never hidden.
