Here's the info I have received from them over a few emails.

-$.55 cents per Options contract, that’s an ALL IN fee, no extra fees.

-(.005) or $5 per 1000 shares for Equities, but this rate can go down with the access of the various ECN routes we have and with the rebates offered through WTS.

Payout Structure:

-99% payout on the options trades per month. With the 1% going back to the prop firm, this is an SEC rule for prop firms in that 99% can be the highest payout.

-95% payout for the equity trades per month. With the 5% going back to the prop firm, as we build the volume in the prop firm with equities the payout will only go higher.

-The Prop Firm pays out the traders once per month usually around the 30th of every month.

-Can trade both Options and Equities on the same platform.

-Professional direct access platform with multiple routes and ability to trade various ECN’S.

Any desk fees? 20 to 1 seems relatively low relative to what most firms give as a max. .005 a share is relatively steep too!

Do they allow option spreads/naked and overnights? Is that 20 to 1 on options also? Or just equities?

I am interested as well I will take a look to see what I can find.
 
So, what rate would you all offer a trader who only puts up $5000, to trade equites and options with basically no return from profits, only commissions. Taking into account all the fixed costs, risk of running the firm, compliance and don't forget the cost of borrowing risk capital and setting up an office with rent, Internet and tv costs. He was also not required to hit any volume numbers.

If it were your firm, what would you offer someone new?
