Tradeify or YRM Prop: which one actually costs less
On a 50K account, the order between Tradeify and YRM Prop changes with the path you take. A page that announces “the cheapest” without saying which path it assumed has picked that path for you.
This comparison is written neither by Tradeify nor by YRM Prop. No link on this page is paid for — the methodology explains how to check, and links to the firms’ sites go through a page that says so.
Total cost across three paths
| Path | Tradeify | YRM Prop | Cheaper |
|---|---|---|---|
| Passed first time | $145 | $132 | YRM Prop $13 apart |
| Three resets before passing | $430 | $501 | Tradeify $71 apart |
| A year of funded account | $145 | $132 | YRM Prop $13 apart |
A total marked “≥” is a minimum: an amount is missing — sometimes because the firm does not publish it, sometimes because we have not recorded it. Each firm's guide says which. A minimum cannot be ranked against a firm price, and the column says “undetermined” rather than pick one.
The answer depends on the scenario, and that is the point
The three rows above are the same calculation along three paths. Where both totals are firm, the column names the cheaper of Tradeify and YRM Prop; where one is a floor, it answers “undetermined” rather than compare a minimum against a price.

YRM Prop enforces a 35% consistency rule at payout; Tradeify publishes none. A consistency rule caps how much of total profit a single day is allowed to represent. On an event-driven strategy — one big day on a report — it is the rule, not the split, that decides whether the withdrawal goes through.
