Methodology

Prosper Factory publishes educational content. We do not provide personalized investment advice.

What we evaluate

Our reviews and comparisons focus on decision criteria, not “promises”:

• Product scope: stocks/ETFs, crypto, CFDs/derivatives, leverage exposure.
• Total cost: fees, spreads, FX costs, withdrawals, inactivity fees where applicable.
• Friction: onboarding, KYC, deposits/withdrawals, support responsiveness.
• Safety basics: account security, 2FA, email hygiene, and custody tradeoffs for crypto.
• Limitations: what the product doesn’t do (or for whom it’s a bad fit).

Risk-first approach

Tools can improve execution and reduce mistakes, but they don’t remove risk.

We try to make risk explicit when a product involves:

• leverage,
• derivatives/CFDs,
• custody risk or counterparty risk,
• unclear fee structures.

How we handle claims, pricing, and updates

Products and pricing can change. We aim to:

• separate facts (features, fees as published) from opinions (fit for a use case),
• mark uncertainty when needed,
• update key pages when we detect meaningful changes.
