PropMarket has launched a proprietary trading firm focused
on prediction markets, introducing a funding model for traders on Polymarket.
The New York-based startup aims to provide capital to
traders who previously relied on personal funds to participate in the growing
sector.
Evaluation Model and Funding Structure
In practice, PropMarket’s offer follows a standard prop-firm
challenge model adapted to prediction markets. Traders pay for an evaluation, trade
a simulated account under strict rules, and then receive a funded Polymarket
account plus a profit split if they pass.

According to the firm, traders complete a one-step
evaluation on a simulated account and must reach a 20% profit target while
staying within a 10% drawdown over 30 days. Those who pass receive funded
accounts to trade live markets on Polymarket.

Account sizes range from $5,000 to $100,000, while a
$250,000 tier remains in development. Funded traders start with a 70/30 profit
split, which can increase to 90/10 based on performance.
Prediction market contracts settle at either zero or one,
which differs from traditional asset classes. PropMarket said it built its risk
framework specifically for this structure, including specific rules on position
sizing, drawdowns, and trading consistency.
Named firms with similar offerings
The company partnered with the team behind BreakoutProp to
develop the platform and provide liquidity. It enters a market where
activity has increased in recent years. Several other firms have launched, or at least announced,
prop-style offerings for prediction markets.
For instance, For Traders rolled out a prediction markets prop
trading offering, initially in beta, with coverage describing it as the first
prop firm to launch such a product. Their model aggregates events from Kalshi
and other venues into a prop-style challenge structure.
Maven Trading, a CFD-focused prop firm, has also introduced
a dedicated prediction markets product and publicly described it as the first
prop firm to launch prediction markets. Industry roundups frame this growing trend as a part of a broader wave of props experimenting with prediction markets as a
new product line.
Amid rising competition in the prediction markets space,
Match-Trade Technologies recently launched a new solution for brokers. It
enables event-based trading through its Match-Trader platform or as a
standalone white-label product. The firm said the offering runs on the same
infrastructure that has supported its FX and CFD systems.
