Why this exists
Sponsors pay monthly. Rivalries pay daily.
A directory sells each sponsor slot once a month. A pay-to-rank board sells the same #1 spot over and over — every time a rival refuses to lose it.
Built for directory, newsletter & community owners. Not for bidders — this sells the kit.

How you get paid
They pay for rank. You keep the money.
You set the entry price and the increments — $5 to enter, $5 to take #1 works well. Smaller spots cost less to take. Topping up costs only the difference.
One $142 fight for #1 pays back the $99 kit in a single bid. Everything after that is profit.
What your visitors see — so you know what you're selling them
Take #1 by beating the leader.
Whoever wants it most pays most. Someone always does.
Take any other spot for $1 more.
$1 feels like nothing. Nothing adds up fast.
Rebids pay only the delta.
Bidders return and pay again. You do nothing.
90 seconds: how your board turns visitors into bidders — you set the entry price, every outbid lands straight in your Stripe / Dodo / Razorpay account.
- The bidding war
- The live outbid ticker
- Where the money lands
Where do bidders come from? You bring the first ones. Then the board helps: the ticker pulls losers back, Google pages pull strangers in, and embeds borrow other sites' visitors. When bidding slows, sponsor ads keep paying.
