Does higher propfirm discounts really correlate with higher chances of no payout?

I’ve been noticing a pattern with prop firms offering huge discounts, sometimes 70–90% off challenges.

It sounds great on the surface, but it makes me wonder… is there a catch?

Do higher discounts mean:

• tougher rules hidden in the fine print?
• stricter risk parameters?
• or just a lower likelihood of actually getting paid out?

Or am I overthinking it, and it’s just aggressive marketing to attract more traders?

Curious to hear from anyone with real payout experience, especially from heavily discounted challenges.
