Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: 8 November 2026
1. The short version
CleaRank does not use affiliate links. We earn no commission, referral fee, bounty, revenue share or any other payment when you open an account, buy a challenge or sign up with a broker, prop firm, exchange or any other company we review or write about. No company can pay for a rating, a review, a better position on a list or a mention in an article.
2. How CleaRank is paid
CleaRank Ltd. is a software company. It is paid for by subscriptions to its trading workbench: there is a Free plan, and paid Pro and Unlimited plans. Our calculators, broker and prop firm reviews, Broker Alerts, Market Insights pages and market news are free to read. That is the whole business model, and it means the only customers we have to keep happy are the traders who use CleaRank.
3. How links to firms work
When a review or an article links to a broker or a prop firm, the link goes to the firm’s official website and carries no tracking or referral code, so neither the firm nor CleaRank can tell that you came from us. These links are marked nofollow and open in a new tab. A link is there so you can check the firm’s current terms yourself, not as a recommendation.
4. What changed in November 2026
Until November 2026 some of our prop firm and broker reviews, and the hub pages that list them, carried affiliate links, and CleaRank could earn a commission when a reader signed up through one of them. On 8 November 2026 we removed every affiliate link from the site and replaced it with a plain link to the firm’s homepage. Scores did not change because of it: each review’s overall score is calculated from the category scores shown on the review, as explained in our broker and prop firm methodologies.
5. Free accounts, gifts and other benefits
If a firm ever gives CleaRank or one of our writers a free account, a free challenge, a gift or anything else of value in connection with a review, that review will say so in a note at the top of the page. If CleaRank ever decides to take paid placements or affiliate links again, this page and every page that carries such a link will say so before the first one appears.
6. Our editorial rules
Our writers and fact-checkers follow the CLEAR™ Editorial Code. Every review names its author and fact-checker and shows the date its facts were last checked. If you think we got something wrong, write to info@clearank.com and we will check it and correct it.
Trading is risky. Please read our risk disclaimer before you act on anything you read on CleaRank.
