Sydney, 14 October 2026. Surgence Labs today launched TraderComps (tradercomps.com), the home of trading competitions, bonuses and rewards. It starts as a free calendar of every live, upcoming and recent trading campaign across crypto exchanges, decentralised exchanges, prediction markets, brokers, trading apps and prop firms, and is being built into the place where traders compete.
Trading platforms now run hundreds of campaigns at any time: trading competitions, points seasons, airdrops, sign-up bonuses, fee discounts and prop firm challenges. Most are announced only on each platform’s own blog or social channels, with dates, eligibility and entry rules spread across separate pages. TraderComps brings them together, with each listing linked to its official source.
As of 13 October, TraderComps profiles 168 trading platforms and lists 142 live campaigns on 81 of them, with $17.6 million in published prize pools: 66 in Trading Competitions, 26 in Airdrops and Points and 50 in Bonuses and Offers. Among them are Gate’s WCTC Season 9 trading competition, with a pool of up to 6,000,000 USDT running to 25 November, and Kraken’s $5,000,000 USDG Futures Challenge, running to 10 December.
What traders get today
- One calendar of trading campaigns, filterable by platform type, market, prize size and days left, with views for campaigns ending soon and new this week, and all live trading competitions on a single page.
- Eligibility by country. Visitors can set their location to hide campaigns they cannot join. In October, 41% of tracked campaigns excluded at least one country or were open to a single region only.
- A competition score out of 5, read from each competition’s official rules: clear rules, how easy it is to qualify, how widely prizes are shared, the cost to compete and whether the platform has paid out before.
- Airdrop status and sign-up offers, checked on each project’s own docs and dated, with offers listed only when the platform publishes them itself.
- A saved list and early alerts. Traders can save campaigns to My list and join the free VIP list to get new campaigns by email the day TraderComps finds them, matched to the platform types they choose.
- Past campaigns with payout records, so traders can check whether a platform paid earlier competitions.
- A monthly State of Trading Competitions report. The first edition found 156 campaigns active on 80 trading platforms in October 2026, with $18.0 million in published cash prize pools. Its data is free to reuse under CC BY 4.0.
TraderComps is free to use. Platforms list themselves for free through a “List a trading platform” form, and no platform can pay for its place, ranking or score. Paid placements are labelled Sponsored.
What comes next
TraderComps is being built into the platform where traders compete, not only where they find competitions. None of the following is live yet:
- Trader profiles that carry a trader’s volume and history across platforms, verified through exchange APIs.
- Competitions on TraderComps: tasks and exclusive competitions hosted on TraderComps itself, with leaderboards and rewards.
- Bonuses in one place: offers from different platforms, claimed from one place.
- Platforms launching to the community: exchanges and trading apps launching competitions straight to TraderComps traders.
Traders on the VIP list hear first when each one opens.
Quote
“Trading platforms spend heavily on competitions and bonuses, but traders find them through whichever banner reaches them first, and the terms that matter, such as who can join and what it costs to compete, are often a few clicks away from the headline prize,” said Julian Stafford, Co-Founder of Surgence Labs. “TraderComps starts by putting every campaign on one calendar with its official rules. Next, traders will be able to carry a verified trading record and compete on TraderComps itself, and platforms will be able to launch competitions straight to them.”
