Who Comes to MonkeyTrade
Our readers arrive with a specific question in mind: which broker should I open an account with, or which prop firm challenge is actually worth the fee. They are not browsing casually. They have already done the early research and they are here to make a final call.
That is a different kind of reader from someone who sees a banner while checking the news. By the time someone lands on a MonkeyTrade review, they are days or hours away from a decision. They want a source they can trust before they commit.
Why Being Here Matters
Being listed on a site that reviews you honestly is a stronger signal than any campaign. It tells traders you are confident enough in your product to let an independent source assess it. In a space full of paid rankings dressed up as editorial, that stands out.
There is a short window between a trader deciding they want a new broker and actually signing up. MonkeyTrade sits inside that window. Our readers are weighing their final shortlist, not starting from scratch. Visibility here carries a different weight from visibility elsewhere.
What a Partnership Gets You
The core of every partnership is a published review and featured placement in our directories. Beyond that, there are options for sponsored content, newsletter placements, and other integrations. We talk through the specifics once we understand what you are trying to achieve, rather than pushing a fixed package on everyone.
A review that stays current
Your review is written using our published methodology
and updated as your platform evolves. If you improve
your offering, the review reflects it. That accuracy over time
is what makes it worth having.
Placement in our directories
Partners appear prominently in our broker and prop firm directories when traders are actively comparing their options. Placements are labelled as sponsored. We do not disguise commercial content as editorial and our readers know the difference.
A badge that actually means something
Your Verified Partner badge links back to an honest independent review. That is a different kind of trust signal from one you just paid for. Put it on your site, your landing pages, your email footer.
Your voice in trader conversations
When traders leave reviews about your platform on MonkeyTrade, you can respond publicly. How a firm handles criticism tells prospective traders more than how it handles praise.
More, if it makes sense
Sponsored articles, category sponsorships, newsletter features, YouTube integrations. These are conversations, not a fixed menu. If you have something specific in mind, bring it up and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
From First Email to Live Listing
No lengthy sales process. Here is how it goes:
Drop us a Line
Tell us who you are, what you offer, and what you are hoping to get out of this.
No pitch deck required.
Review & Onboarding
Our editorial team starts the review independently. Once published, your listing goes live, your badge is ready, and your dashboard is active.
We Come Back with a Proposal
We look at your platform and put together something that fits your situation. Not a brochure. We respond within 2 business days.
The Relationship Keeps Going
Your review stays current. You get notified when traders leave reviews. We do not go quiet after the contract is signed.
The Straight Answer on Independence
We get asked about this a lot, so here it is plainly.
Scores are not for sale
Signing a partnership does not move your score up. Cancelling one does not move it down. The score comes from our methodology and nothing else.
Same process for everyone
We assess every broker and prop firm the same way regardless of whether money changes hands. Our methodology is public. You can read exactly what we look at.
Sponsored placements are labelled
We do not dress up commercial content as editorial. Readers can always tell a paid placement from an organic ranking.
Non-partners are in the directories too
Firms that have never paid us appear in our listings and recommendations if their scores warrant it. We do not gatekeep the lists.
You can respond, not rewrite
You can reply to trader reviews through your dashboard. If something in our review is factually wrong, flag it to editorial@monkeytrade.com and we will look at it. The partnership is not the right channel for that.
Why this actually works in your favour
If we wrote favourable reviews for whoever paid us, traders would stop trusting them within a year and the whole thing would be worthless. The reason a MonkeyTrade listing has commercial value is because the review behind it is real. A strong score from us means something precisely because a weak score from us also means something.
Who This Is For
We work with forex brokers and prop trading firms that are comfortable being reviewed honestly. You do not need a flawless product. You do need to be willing to stand behind what you offer and engage with trader feedback like a firm that plans to still be around in five years.
We will not partner with firms under active unresolved regulatory sanction, firms with credible widespread reports of not paying traders or clients, or firms that have previously tried to pressure our editorial team. That list is short. Most firms have nothing to worry about.
Let's Talk
If any of this sounds right for your firm, send us a message. Tell us who you are and what you are trying to achieve. We will take it from there.
