White Label Prop Firm Plans Compared

Comparing white-label plans on feature lists tells you almost nothing, because the lists converge. Comparing them on structure tells you everything: the pricing model decides whether your platform cost shrinks or grows as the firm succeeds, and that single choice outweighs every feature difference in the category.

Where the models cross

The arithmetic is simple enough to do on the back of an envelope, and almost nobody does it before signing. Take a firm selling €30,000 of evaluations a month.

Monthly evaluation revenueKept on a 30%-of-gross shareKept on a €3,500 flat fee
€10,000€3,000€6,500
€30,000€9,000€26,500
€60,000€18,000€56,500
€120,000€36,000€116,500
Before payouts and processing. On the revenue-share side the vendor is typically absorbing payout risk, account costs and processing — the flat-fee column is gross of those, and you carry them.

Read the table as a trade rather than a verdict. Revenue share is a rational way to buy certainty while you are still finding out whether the firm works. Once it does, the same arrangement is the most expensive line you own, and it never stops. The crossing point is early — usually within the first year of a firm that is working at all.

What to ask before you compare numbers

  1. 1Is there a revenue share at any tier, including ones I have not been shown?
  2. 2Is payout risk mine or yours — and if yours, what are the limits?
  3. 3Is the setup fee refundable, and what specifically does it buy?
  4. 4Does the trader-count band change the price, and what happens the month I cross it?
  5. 5Are the trading platform and liquidity provider connections included, or quoted separately?
  6. 6What is billed annually versus monthly, and is the annual prepaid?

Frequently asked questions

How much does a white label prop firm platform cost?
Flat-fee platforms in this market run roughly €2,000–€5,000 a month, often with a one-time setup fee of €5,000–€15,000. Revenue-share vendors charge little or nothing upfront and take a percentage instead — real tiers range from leaving the operator 30% of gross revenue to a roughly 50/50 split after expenses.
Is revenue share or a flat subscription cheaper?
Revenue share is cheaper only at low volume. Past a modest revenue level a flat subscription costs substantially less, and the gap widens permanently. The trade-off is that revenue-share vendors often absorb payout risk and processing costs, which a flat-fee vendor does not.
What does a prop firm setup fee include?
On PropsEngine it covers platform configuration, custom branding, domain setup, the MetaTrader 5 connection path, liquidity provider wiring and initial compliance configuration — one-time, per firm. Other vendors scope it differently, so ask what is inside rather than comparing the number alone.
Can I change plans as the firm grows?
Yes. Moving from Starter to Growth or Enterprise is prorated, takes effect immediately, and involves no downtime or migration.
