What TradeGives is
TradeGives is a charitable transparency initiative . It is not a registered charity or non-profit organisation itself. TradeGives's purpose is to collect affiliate commissions earned through our affiliate links and distribute them to verified charitable organisations, with full public transparency.
By visiting this website you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the site — though honestly, we don't know why you'd object.
No financial advice
We list prop firms as an affiliate. We have no control over their operations, challenges, payouts or policies. Any issues with a prop firm are between you and them.
Affiliate disclosure
TradeGives earns affiliate commissions when you sign up to a prop firm through our links. This costs you nothing extra — the commission comes from the prop firm's marketing budget.
These commissions are the entire basis of TradeGives's charity pool. 100% of affiliate commissions are transferred to charitable causes as described on this site. TradeGives's operating costs are covered separately through advertising revenue.
We may not have affiliate relationships with every prop firm we mention. We try to be clear about which links are affiliate links, but if you're unsure, assume any prop firm link on TradeGives may earn us a commission.
How donations work
You choose which cause your commission goes to at the point of sign-up. TradeGives controls the transfers based on individual selections.
- Donations are made directly to the charitable organisations, not through TradeGives as an intermediary charity.
- We ask each recipient to publicly confirm receipt on their own channels. This is our verification mechanism — we cannot guarantee every organisation will comply every time.
- Vote results and donation amounts are published on this site within 14 days of the transfer.
- In the event that a cause or partner becomes ineligible (organisation ceases to operate, partnership ends, etc.), the allocated funds for that cause will be redirected to the next eligible cause by vote count for that month.
Charitable partner relationships
The five charitable causes listed on TradeGives represent our intended donation recipients. Partner logos and names are not displayed until a formal agreement with the organisation has been signed. "Partner TBA" labels indicate we have not yet confirmed participation with the relevant organisation.
We cannot guarantee that any specific charitable organisation will agree to participate or continue participating. If a partnership falls through, we will replace the cause with an equivalent organisation and inform our community.
No guarantees
We make no guarantees about:
- The ongoing availability of this website
- The continued participation of any specific NGO partner
- The volume of affiliate commissions generated in any given month
- The accuracy of any information about third-party prop firms
We do our best. That's all we can promise.
