# Glossary — every term used on PropWorld, defined Edited by PropWorld on 2026-10-31. HTML version: https://www.propworld.org/glossary ## Payout Reliability Score (PRS) PropWorld's 0–100 score of how much a prop firm pays its traders and how sustainable that flow looks, computed from six published components: lifetime payout volume verified by Payout Junction, verified payouts over the last 30 days, audience size, month-over-month momentum, the operator's rating and years on market. Reported as "not available", never as 0, when a firm has no verified payout record or no traffic data. The full formula and its version history are on the methodology page. ## Cashflow warning A disclosure badge for a firm with between 10,000 and 100,000 monthly visits whose verified payouts exceeded $3,000 per 1,000 visits over the last two complete months — heavy payout outflow relative to the likely inflow of new customers. Computed from those published thresholds, not an opinion. ## Limited data The operator's manual flag that a firm's numbers rest on thin data — a very low traffic reading, or a short payout-verification history — and should be read with more caution than the rest of the board. ## Market Which market a firm funds: Futures, CFD, Perps (perpetual crypto futures) or Both (CFD and futures). Set per firm from its public offering and shown as — when not yet verified; never a default. ## Assets The instrument classes a firm's profile lists (forex, indices, metals, energy, crypto, stocks, futures and so on). A separate field from Market: a futures firm trades futures contracts on indices and energy, a CFD firm trades the same underlyings as CFDs. ## Time windows Payout figures are shown over the last 24 hours, 7 days and 30 days (rolling windows, UTC, as the source computes them) and for all time since the source began tracking a firm. Traffic figures are per calendar month. The window is always stated next to the figure, and a figure for one window is never compared with another. ## Monthly visits Estimated total visits to the website in the selected month. ## Month-over-month change (MoM) Month-over-month change in visits versus the previous month. ## Visits trend Monthly visits we've recorded so far. The series grows each month as we keep tracking. ## Bounce rate Share of visits that leave after viewing just one page — lower usually means more engaged traffic. ## Pages per visit Average number of pages a visitor views per visit. ## Average visit duration Average time a visitor spends on the site per visit. ## Global rank Worldwide traffic rank across all websites. Lower is better. ## Country rank Traffic rank within the site's top country. Lower is better. ## Category rank Traffic rank within the site's industry category. Lower is better. ## Traffic sources How visitors arrive: direct, organic search, social, referrals, mail and paid. Shares are estimates and may not total 100%. ## Top countries Share of visits by the visitor's country. ## Organic keywords Top organic search terms driving visitors — with monthly search volume, cost-per-click, and estimated traffic value. ## Payout A single payout a prop firm sent to a funded trader, verified and published by Payout Junction and recorded in USD. ## Payout count Total number of verified payouts recorded for a firm. ## Payout rail The payment route a payout travelled: Rise (a payout provider many firms use) or Direct Crypto (the firm paying a trader directly). Where volume is split between rails, the split is estimated from the source's charts rather than measured. ## Median payout The middle verified payout for a firm — half were larger, half smaller. Less distorted by a handful of very large payouts than the average. ## Verified via Which payment routes Payout Junction checked for this firm. A firm may also pay through channels the source does not cover, which would not appear here. ## Max allocation The largest account size a firm will fund a trader with. ## Challenge type The evaluation format a firm uses before funding a trader. ## TrustPilot rating The firm's average rating on TrustPilot, out of 5. Collected by TrustPilot, not by PropWorld, and snapshotted monthly. ## Our review PropWorld's own editorial score for a firm, separate from its TrustPilot rating. --- Payout figures are tracked and verified by Payout Junction, an independent service that publishes verified payout totals for prop firms. PropWorld republishes those figures, keeps them as a history, and links each firm to its source record. Payout verification is Payout Junction's, not PropWorld's. Absence of verified payouts is not evidence that a firm does not pay. Licence: CC BY 4.0 (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/).
