Prop Firm Partnership for Trading Communities, Signal Groups and Educators
What a trading community gets from an OctoFunded partnership: a 10% member discount through the partner code, rules members can read for themselves, USDT payouts with a transaction hash, and a custom deal on request for larger communities.

A prop firm partnership with OctoFunded lets a Telegram group, Discord server, signal group or YouTube educator give members 10% off any challenge with a partner code, while the community owner earns 30% of what each referred member actually pays, in USDT.
This article is written for people who run a room, not for solo affiliates. If you want the full commission rules, payout steps and a plan-by-plan table, read the OctoFunded affiliate program first. Here we cover what changes when you speak to hundreds or thousands of members at once: what they get, what you can point them to, and how to talk about a prop firm without overpromising.
What does a trading community get from a prop firm partnership?
A community gets three things: a real discount for members, rules members can read for themselves, and payouts members can verify. Commission for the owner comes fourth, and it only works well when the first three are true.
| What your community gets | How it works at OctoFunded |
|---|---|
| A member discount | Your partner code gives 10% off any challenge, one use per buyer |
| Public, written rules | Every plan's targets, loss limits and payout terms are on the site and in the Terms |
| Verifiable payouts | Trader payouts in USDT or USDC with a transaction hash anyone can look up |
| Choice across markets | Classic (forex, metals, indices, BTC/ETH), Perpetuals 24/7 and Futures |
| Attribution you can see | Your dashboard shows clicks, sign-ups and sales |
| A commission for the owner | 30% of the amount paid, after a 14-day hold |
Why the member discount matters
Members in a group compare. If your code gave them less than they could find elsewhere, someone would post the better deal within a day. Your partner code gives the same 10% as the public code OFF10, so a member who uses yours loses nothing, and the sale is attributed to you. One code per order applies, which also means members cannot stack codes, so there is nothing to argue about in the chat.
Rules members can point to
The worst thread in any trading group starts with "they changed the rules on me". OctoFunded publishes each plan's rules on the site, and our explainer on prop firm challenge rules walks through the common ones. When a member asks a rule question, you can link the written answer instead of paraphrasing it from memory. That protects you as much as them.
Payouts members can verify
Trader payouts are sent in USDT or USDC and recorded with a public transaction hash, and paid partner commissions are recorded with theirs too. Members do not have to take a screenshot on faith: they can verify a transaction hash on a public block explorer. Our guide to on-chain payouts explains what a hash proves and what it does not. Payouts always depend on meeting the program rules.
Which communities fit a prop firm partnership?
Any community where traders already ask "which prop firm should I try?" fits. The format changes how you share the code, not the rules.
| Community type | Where the code fits naturally | Plans that often match |
|---|---|---|
| Telegram or Discord trading group | Pinned message, welcome bot, a #prop-firms channel | Classic 1-Step and 2-Step for most members |
| Signal group | Under a clear note that signals are not a funded-account strategy | Plans whose loss limits fit the group's style |
| YouTube educator | Video description, a pinned comment, a dedicated walkthrough | Whatever plan you actually demonstrate |
| Course or mentorship | Module on choosing a prop firm, resource page | Classic 1-Step for beginners, Instant for experienced students |
| Crypto community | Channel focused on 24/7 markets | Perpetuals, open on weekends |
| Newsletter | A recurring "tools we use" section | Plans matched to the readers' markets |
Match the plan to the audience. A crypto group that trades on Sunday nights is better served by Perpetuals than by a forex plan, and a beginner channel is better served by a small Classic account than a large Instant one. The three OctoFunded markets explains each.
What would a community earn per member?
Each referred member who buys earns you 30% of the price after their 10% discount, which equals 27% of the list price. These are examples on real OctoFunded prices.
| Plan a member buys | List price | Member pays (10% off) | Example commission (30%) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Classic 1-Step $10,000 | $69 | $62.10 | $18.63 |
| Classic 1-Step $50,000 | $289 | $260.10 | $78.03 |
| Classic 2-Step $25,000 | $179 | $161.10 | $48.33 |
| Classic Instant $25,000 | $249 | $224.10 | $67.23 |
| Perpetuals 1-Step $10,000 | $239 | $215.10 | $64.53 |
| Perpetuals 2-Step $25,000 | $359 | $323.10 | $96.93 |
| Futures 1-Step $50,000 | $752 | $676.80 | $203.04 |
Prices checked 1 November 2026. Commission = 30% of the amount paid, rounded to the cent. Examples only: earnings are not guaranteed.
A worked example for a group
Illustrative arithmetic only. Suppose a Discord group posts one honest walkthrough, and over the next 60 days three members buy a $10,000 Classic 1-Step and two buy a $50,000 Classic 1-Step, with no refunds.
| Sales | Commission each | Subtotal |
|---|---|---|
| 3 x Classic 1-Step $10,000 | $18.63 | $55.89 |
| 2 x Classic 1-Step $50,000 | $78.03 | $156.06 |
| Total | $211.95 |
That clears the $50 minimum once each commission passes its 14-day hold. It is an example of how the numbers add up, not a forecast. Many communities see no sales in a given month, and any refund or chargeback cancels that commission. For the full price list, see every OctoFunded price.
How should a community talk about a prop firm responsibly?
Talk about rules, prices and risk, never about income. Your members trust you, and a single "easy money" post can cost you that trust and your partnership.
Say this:
- "This is my partner code. It gives you 10% off and I earn a commission if you buy."
- "Funded accounts use simulated capital. No real money is traded on your behalf."
- "Read the rules for the plan before you buy. Here is the link."
- "Trading carries a high risk of loss. Many traders do not pass."
- "Payouts depend on meeting the program rules."
Never say this:
- Any income figure, monthly target or "replace your salary" line.
- Pass rates, win rates or "our members always get funded".
- That signals will pass a challenge for someone.
- Invented statistics, awards or trader counts.
- Fake deadlines or countdowns.
- Discount codes other than your own and the public OFF10.
If a member asks whether a funded account is real money, send them to is a funded account real money. If they ask whether the firm is safe, send them to is OctoFunded legit, which lists what to check.
A note for signal groups
Signals and funded accounts mix badly when the group's risk is larger than the plan's daily loss limit. Before you share a code, compare your typical drawdown to the plan's limits and tell members if a plan does not fit the way your group trades. A member who breaches on day two blames the room, and a refunded order earns you nothing anyway.
Can a larger community get a custom deal?
Yes. Larger communities and educators can ask for a custom partnership, such as account giveaways for members, a fixed monthly arrangement or a dedicated partner manager. Terms depend on the community and are agreed case by case, so there is no public price list for them.
To ask, write to [email protected] or message @octofunded on Telegram with:
- The community's name, platform and link.
- Approximate size and how active members are.
- The markets your members trade.
- What you have in mind (giveaway, monthly deal, co-hosted session, other).
Start with the standard partner code in the meantime: sales from it count from day one, and your dashboard gives both sides real data to discuss.
How does the partnership work day to day?
The mechanics are the same as for any affiliate, and they fit in four steps.
- Join and pick your code. Open Become a partner, choose a code of 4 to 16 letters and digits, and copy your link.
- Share it where members look. Pin it, add it to the bot, put it in the description.
- Watch the dashboard. Clicks, sign-ups, sales and each commission with its status.
- Request on Friday. After the 14-day hold, request your USDT payout on any Friday (UTC) once your ready balance reaches $50. The team reviews and pays it.
Self-referral is blocked, so an owner cannot buy through their own code, and the 60-day window means a member who joins today and buys next month still counts. For the payout side in detail, see crypto affiliate program paid in USDT.
FAQ
What is a prop firm partnership for a trading community?
It is an agreement where a community owner shares a prop firm's partner code with members. At OctoFunded, members get 10% off with that code and the community owner earns 30% of what each referred member actually pays, paid in USDT.
Do my members pay more because I earn a commission?
No. They pay less. Your partner code gives them 10% off, the same discount as the public code OFF10, and the commission comes out of OctoFunded's side, not the member's.
Can a large Telegram or Discord community get a custom deal?
Yes, larger communities can ask for one, such as giveaways, a fixed monthly arrangement or a dedicated partner manager. Terms are agreed case by case: write to [email protected] or message @octofunded on Telegram.
Can I run a signal group and promote OctoFunded?
Yes, as long as you do not promise profits, pass rates or payouts, and you tell members that funded accounts use simulated capital and that trading carries a high risk of loss.
How can my members check that payouts are real?
Trader payouts are sent in USDT or USDC and recorded with a transaction hash, which anyone can look up on a public block explorer. Payouts depend on meeting the program rules.
How much would a community earn from a referral?
As an example, a member who buys a $50,000 Classic 1-Step pays $260.10 with the 10% code, and the 30% commission is $78.03. These are examples of the arithmetic, not guaranteed earnings.
