About Rankly

We are building the most trusted trading platform decision engine on the internet.

Our Mission

Rankly was created to solve a single problem: it is too hard for traders to find honest, data-driven comparisons of online trading platforms. The internet is filled with biased reviews, outdated information, and affiliate-first content that puts commissions before accuracy.

We believe every trader deserves clear, unbiased information before they deposit money. Our mission is to rank and compare trading platforms transparently — so traders can make confident decisions based on facts, not marketing.

What We Do

Independent Reviews

We test and review trading platforms across 10+ scoring categories including regulation, trading costs, withdrawal speed, platform quality, and customer support.

Side-by-Side Comparisons

Our comparison engine lets traders filter brokers by country, platform, market, account type, and minimum deposit — with real data, not opinions.

Educational Guides

We produce beginner-to-advanced guides covering CFD trading, platform selection, risk management, and regulation — written by experienced traders.

Trading Tools

Our free tools — Trading Platform Finder, Cost Calculator, Withdrawal Checker, and Regulation Checker — help traders find the best fit before they trade.

Our Editorial Team

Rankly reviews are written by a team of experienced traders, financial analysts, and compliance researchers. Each review is tested against real account data, platform screenshots, and regulatory filings. Our scoring system is weighted and transparent — no broker pays to be ranked higher.

Independence & Transparency

Rankly is an independent platform. We do not own, operate, or hold any stake in the trading platforms we review. Our revenue comes from affiliate partnerships, but these partnerships do not influence our rankings, ratings, or editorial content.

Every review is based on our own testing, publicly available data, and user feedback. We disclose all affiliate relationships clearly. Our editorial policy prohibits any broker from paying for favorable placement or higher ratings.
