Can I use free tools to build my prop firm's website?

Quick answer

Yes. Many website builders offer free or low-cost plans that are enough for a launch: a landing page, pricing, rules, FAQ and legal pages, with a link to your payment provider's hosted checkout. Upgrade for a custom domain, better performance and integrations once sales start.

Detailed answer

A website needs to be clear and trustworthy more than elaborate.

What the site needs

  • Home page: what you offer and for whom.
  • Pricing: account size, price and key rules.
  • Rules page: every rule with examples.
  • FAQ: payouts, refunds, platform, support.
  • Legal: terms, privacy, refund policy, risk disclosure, company details.
  • Checkout link.

Free tier limitations

  • Builder branding on the site.
  • No custom domain on some free plans.
  • Limited integrations.

A custom domain is worth paying for early, because a builder's subdomain looks less trustworthy.

Show the platform

Screenshots of your branded terminal, or a short walkthrough video, help visitors trust that the product is real. Your terminal's login screen with your logo is an easy first screenshot.

Later improvements

  • Speed and mobile optimisation.
  • Automated delivery through your platform's API.
  • Content for search: rule explanations and guides.
