About BinaryOptions.net
BinaryOptions.net is a free resource for individuals seeking to learn about binary options. Since 2011, we’ve published thousands of articles explaining how binaries work, how they’re regulated, and how to choose a broker, with practical insights from our team, which includes experienced traders.
Our binary options guides cover the essentials for beginners, while our broker reviews help traders make informed choices about where to open an account.
How We’re Funded
We have partnerships or marketing relationships with some of the companies listed in our comparison tables. This can result in a commission if a visitor opens an account and trades with a broker having clicked a link on our pages.
This does not cost the trader anything; for the brands it is another form of marketing and for BinaryOptions.net it, means that we can continue to provide accurate, informed, and comprehensive comparisons that are free for our visitors to use.
Importantly, commercial terms do not impact our review process. Our first-line testers do not know which firms are partners and we only have arrangements with some of the brands mentioned on our website.

How We Test Brokers
We take a forensic approach to reviewing brokers, considering over 200 data points across the categories that matter most to binary traders. These include contract types, expiry times, payouts, platform quality, support, and crucially, regulation and safety.
Our researchers don’t just review marketing materials or take brokers’ claims at face value – they open accounts and run tests on the tools provided, ensuring a well-rounded assessment of each provider.

How We Stay Abreast of Regulations
Binary options have been the subject of regulatory debate over the years, most notably in the late 2010s and early 2020s when regulators in major markets, including the EU, UK, and Australia, introduced restrictions on some binary options providers.
That’s why we keep our pulse on the latest binary options regulations. We’ve also built and maintain a global database of financial regulators, complete with our own classification system so you can, at a glance, gauge the level of oversight and trader safeguards provided.
When rules change, we update affected reviews and articles with easy-to-understand summaries of what the changes mean for traders.
