Rules
onedollarbid is a public leaderboard. You pay one dollar to stand above everyone else, and rank is who paid last — nothing else.
How ranking works
- Every bump costs exactly $1. There is no other amount anywhere on this site.
- Rank is recency of payment and nothing else. The most recently paid bump is number one.
- Every bump goes straight to the top. Everyone else slides down one place.
- There are no ties. Bumps are ordered by the moment they were paid.
- You cannot pay while you are number one. Somebody else has to take the top before you can buy it back.
- A completed payment is what claims the top. Opening a checkout reserves nothing.
Two boards
- The live board is ordered by who paid last. It changes the moment anyone bumps.
- The all-time board counts lifetime bumps. It never resets and it never decays.
- Websites, X, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and LinkedIn each have their own live board and their own all-time board.
- A listing belongs to exactly one board, picked from the link you submit.
What you can list
- A website, app or product URL, or a profile handle on one of the supported networks.
- Chat and invite links are not allowed — Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord, Messenger, Signal and similar. This is a board for products and profiles, not group chats.
- No malware, phishing, adult content, or anything illegal where the site is operated. Listings that break this are removed without a refund.
- Query parameters are stripped from listing links, so affiliate, referral and tracking URLs will not work.
- Store and repository links are keyed by their path, so two different apps on the same platform do not share one listing.
- New listings are capped at three per board per hour, so nobody can buy the whole top of a board at once.
After you pay
- Your listing is public: name, one line of description and a link that goes straight to what you submitted.
- Being knocked off moves your listing down one place. It never removes it.
- Bumps are not refundable, because you keep the listing whether or not you are still on top.
- Every bump you have ever paid for stays counted on the all-time board.
- Every listing links straight to what you submitted, with no redirect in between. The link carries rel="sponsored", because the placement was paid for — what you are buying is the traffic.
Bumps and packs
- One bump is one dollar. That never changes.
- You can buy exactly one. A pack buys several at once and costs the same per bump — it only saves you a trip through the checkout.
- Prices are before tax. Dodo Payments adds whatever your country charges at checkout, so the total you pay may be higher than the price shown.
- Nothing includes bonus bumps: $1 buys 1, $10 buys 10, $100 buys 100.
- Bumps buy listing positions only. They are not refundable, not transferable and cannot be withdrawn as money.
- Bumps belong to your account, so signing in on another device brings them with you.
Bumping automatically
- You can leave a standing instruction on a listing you own: bump it again whenever somebody knocks it off, or bump it on a fixed interval.
- Every rule has a daily ceiling that you set, and it can never spend past it.
- A rule switches itself off the moment you run out of bumps. It does not start spending again by itself when you next top up.
- Reclaim rules are checked once a minute, so two people bumping each other automatically cannot burn a wallet at machine speed.
- A rule can be turned off at any time and takes effect immediately.
Payments and chargebacks
- Payments are processed by Dodo Payments, the merchant of record. Their name is what appears on your statement.
- If something is wrong with a purchase, email hello@onedollarbid.lol before opening a dispute — it is faster and it is always fixable.
- Nothing here limits any right you have that cannot be excluded by law.
Questions people ask
- What is onedollarbid?
- onedollarbid is a public leaderboard of websites and social accounts where the last person to pay $1 sits on top. Knock the current holder off for a dollar, and hold the spot until somebody else does the same. There are six separate boards: websites, X, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and LinkedIn.
- How much does it cost to be number one?
- One dollar. Always one dollar — on every board, at every moment, for everyone. There is no bigger payment and no auction.
- Can I pay more to hold the top for longer?
- No. There is no larger payment anywhere on the site. The only way to stay on top is for nobody else to spend a dollar.
- Why can I not bump while I am number one?
- Because otherwise one wallet could hold the top forever and nobody else would have a reason to pay. You may only pay to reclaim the top spot, never to reinforce it.
- What happens when someone knocks me off?
- Your listing moves down one place. It keeps its link, its description and every bump it has ever been paid, and one dollar puts it back on top.
- What is the all-time board?
- A second ranking of the same listings, ordered by how many dollars each has been paid in total. It never resets, so the money you spend leaves a permanent mark even after you are knocked off the live board.
- Can I just pay one dollar?
- Yes. One dollar buys one bump, which is what the site has always said it costs. A $1 card charge loses about 45 cents to payment processing — that is our cost of selling at the price we advertise, not a surcharge on you. Packs are there for people who know they will be back: same dollar a bump, fewer checkouts. Tax is whatever your country adds on top.
- Are bumps refundable?
- No. The listing is the product and you keep it permanently, along with every bump counted on the all-time board.
- Can the site bump for me automatically?
- Yes, on a listing you own. You choose whether it fires when somebody knocks you off or on a fixed interval, and you set a daily ceiling it can never spend past. It stops itself when you run out of bumps and does not restart on its own.
- Is this gambling?
- No. Everyone pays the same dollar and receives the same thing — a permanent public listing with a working link, and the top spot for as long as nobody else pays. Nothing escalates and there is nothing to lose a bet on.
- Can I list a Telegram, WhatsApp or Discord invite?
- No. Chat and invite links are not allowed. The board is for products, websites and public profiles.
