Why this site exists.
The retail trading review space is dominated by affiliate marketing optimized for converting clicks rather than honest evaluation. Reviews of brokers who pay highest commissions get the best scores; reviews of brokers who pay less get worse scores. The methodology isn’t disclosed because there isn’t one — the rankings reflect commercial relationships, not operational quality.
PrimeTraderAI operates as an independent publisher. We maintain affiliate relationships with most brokers we cover, but our editorial decisions — scoring, rankings, recommendations — are independent of commission rates. We don’t accept paid placements, sponsored rankings, or “broker partnerships” that would compromise editorial judgment. Our complete methodology is publicly documented, our affiliate disclosure is comprehensive, and we score brokers based on what they actually deliver — not what they pay us.
This won’t make us the most profitable affiliate site. It does make us a useful one for traders who want honest information. If you want sycophantic reviews praising every broker equally, you’ll find dozens of sites elsewhere. If you want honest evaluation that sometimes criticizes brokers we have affiliate relationships with, you’re in the right place.
