How to Choose

As a beginner, prioritize trust and simplicity over profit splits and account sizes. Here's what matters most:

  • No time limits — take as long as you need to hit the profit target safely
  • High Trustpilot score — 4.0+ with thousands of reviews means real traders are getting paid
  • Responsive support — important when you have questions about rules
  • Clear, simple rules — avoid firms with complex consistency rules or hidden restrictions
  • Free retake or reset — gives you a safety net while learning
