Discount-heavy prop firm offers should be mapped to checkout and payout terms

Affiliate or industry-news discount mentions are useful discovery signals, but OPF only treats checkout-confirmed terms as actionable.

What changed

Discount mentions are separated from rule quality and payout eligibility.

Trader impact

A large discount can still be a bad purchase if activation, reset, data, refund, or payout terms are unfavorable.

Before buying
  • Verify final checkout price
  • Check activation and reset fees
  • Confirm refund policy
  • Compare payout minimum and cap before buying

Source universe

Official sources first, trader reports second.
