How we verified this
Our research on July 30 and August 22, 2026 found no public affiliate signup anywhere at Topstep — nothing on the official site, nothing across the 61 public help-centre articles, and the legacy application URLs unreachable. What remained open was whether invite-only arrangements existed, so on August 28 we asked through the official support channel.
Topstep’s answer (August 31, 2026)
A human Trader Support representative replied:
- The firm has “sunset our existing affiliate program”
- No new affiliate or partnership applications are being accepted
- The community will be updated if anything changes
What it means
- Legacy pages around the web still advertising a Topstep affiliate program with recurring commissions describe a program that no longer exists
- Treat any new solicitation claiming to offer “official Topstep affiliate links” with caution
- This site has no partnership with Topstep, and this reply confirms that will remain the case for now. Our Topstep coverage — how to start, reputation review, TopstepX guide — continues as non-affiliated, neutral content
