PropSim vs Execurve PropScale 2026
PropSim and Execurve target overlapping prop-firm infrastructure needs from different starting points. PropSim markets a zero-code white-label platform with subscription plus funded-trader credits. Execurve's PropScale is positioned as a deeper prop-firm CRM and operating layer with monthly pricing by trader count.

Pricing model
PropSim's homepage currently lists Free $0, Launch $149, Scale $599 and Enterprise $1,999 per month. Credits are the core usage unit: the provider says one credit covers a trader's journey through evaluation to funded status, and paid plans include monthly credits. Credit packs are offered for additional volume.
Execurve states that PropScale starts at €740 per month for up to 500 traders, with no revenue share and hosting, support and platform updates included. Pricing scales by trader count, so larger operators need higher-tier quotes.
The billing units are not equivalent. A firm can have many registered or challenge traders for every funded trader. Build a funnel model before comparing Execurve's trader-count tiers with PropSim's funded-trader credits.
Pricing confidence
Execurve's current CRM page gives a consistent entry statement. PropSim has a material conflict: its homepage says no setup fees and paid plans from $149, while an official use-case page says plans start at $499 per month with a $1,000 setup fee, then later says no setup fees. Until PropSim resolves this, buyers should obtain written confirmation.
CRM and operations
Execurve's strongest case is operational depth. PropScale publicly describes the full trader lifecycle from challenge sales and KYC through rule enforcement, funded accounts, payouts and affiliates. It also adds marketing attribution, back-office controls and developer tooling.
PropSim presents a broader launch-in-a-box experience: challenge configuration, branded terminal, storefront, payment gateways, automated payouts, KYC/AML, fraud controls, CRM/helpdesk integrations, email marketing and progressively deeper features at higher tiers.
Trading-platform strategy
Execurve publishes native connections to MetaTrader 4/5, cTrader, TradeLocker and its IntraQuote WebTrader, with other platforms available on demand. PropSim includes its own branded terminal and TradingView charts, while Scale adds MT4/MT5 bridges. This makes the platform decision central: a founder happy with an integrated web terminal may evaluate PropSim differently from an operator requiring several established third-party terminals.
Migration
Both providers discuss migration. Execurve is unusually specific publicly, claiming migration of traders, accounts and history with zero downtime, two months free for migrating firms and up to 10 workflow-critical features built at no charge. PropSim says it provides white-glove migration support and cites firms moving from custom or competitor platforms. Treat all timeline and zero-downtime statements as provider claims and make them contractual if important.
Best fit
PropSim: worth investigating for founders seeking self-service, low headline entry cost and an integrated terminal-first stack. Execurve: worth investigating for firms prioritizing CRM depth, developer access, multiple named platform integrations and a more explicit migration proposition.
