How the check works
Every firm gets one of three statuses under a published rule: active (no trigger holds), caution (still selling, but dated public evidence such as a cluster of recent payout complaints or a suspended Trustpilot profile) or closed (stopped operating, with sources). A caution caps the PA Score at 4.0 and removes the firm from offers and best-of lists. We never call a firm a scam unless a regulator or court has said so.
Safe is relative: no prop firm is risk-free. Evaluations are paid products, most traders do not pass, and a firm's rules can change after you buy. That is why every card shows the date of our last check and links to the sources.
FAQ
How do I know if a prop firm is safe?
Check three things: a recent cluster of payout complaints, any regulator or court record, and whether the firm publishes its rules, fees and payout terms in full. This page puts that evidence in one place, with sources and dates.
What does caution mean on PropAnalyse?
The firm still sells challenges, but dated public evidence shows risk, such as many recent reviews reporting unpaid payouts or a suspended Trustpilot profile. The score is capped at 4.0 and the caution is re-checked at least every 30 days.
Which prop firms have shut down?
16 firms in our list have stopped operating, including FORFX, Seacrest Funded, FundingTicks, Vault Funder, Traders With Edge. Each has a dated card with sources.
