Rankbid.lol is a public leaderboard with no advertisements, no API keys and no revenue sharing. You pay to stand above everyone else, and your rank is determined solely by that payment — nothing else.
There is one board and it never resets. Your rank is the total you have ever paid for a listing, and that total does not expire — there is no rolling window, no daily archive and no separate chart to also be ranked on. The highest total holds #1. Categories filter that same board rather than creating others: a listing sitting at #12 overall still reads #12 inside the category it is filed under.
New listings are whole US dollars, with a minimum of $4 and a maximum of $999,999. To claim the #1 spot you must pay at least $5 more than the current top listing; paying less still puts you on the board at whatever rank that amount reaches. Equal totals keep the order they were placed in — the older listing holds the higher rank, so a challenger has to beat an amount rather than match it. If you are already listed, enter the same URL or @handle again to raise your rank: the new total must be at least $1 above your current one, and checkout charges you only the difference. Nobody else can take your rank by paying that same small difference, because their payment is measured from zero. Links from the App Store, Play Store, GitHub and similar platforms are ranked by their path, so two different apps never share a rank, and tracking query strings are discarded.
You can list a product website or an X @handle. Chat and invite links — Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord, Messenger, Signal and similar — are not allowed: this board is for products and profiles, not group chats. Links to adult content are not allowed. Query parameters are stripped from every listing link, so affiliate, referral and tracking URLs will not work. Link shorteners are rejected rather than followed; submit the destination URL instead.
You choose your category at checkout, from the list on the Categories page. It is a label used to filter the board, not a separate ranking, and it is set once when the listing is created — a later top-up will not refile a listing other people are already browsing under its current tab. If your listing ends up in the wrong place, contact @FoundrFam on X and it will be moved.
Once the payment is confirmed your listing is public. The name and description shown on the board are read from the listed site itself, not typed by the buyer, and the icon is the one the site declares. All clicks go to the URL or profile you provided, with query parameters removed. A settled payment is what claims the rank, and payments are final and non-refundable — being outranked later is how the board works and is not grounds for a refund.
