Rules

betterbid is a public leaderboard for products, websites, and any URL. No ads, no votes, no algorithm. Your position is the money you put in — nothing else. There is no login and no account.

How ranking works

  • Bids are whole US dollars, starting at $1.
  • Your rank is your lifetime total, not your last payment.
  • Equal totals: the listing that reached that total earlier stays higher.
  • Submit the same URL again to climb. You only pay the difference.
  • Anyone can outbid you at any time. A rank is not a timed slot you own.
  • Same price, same time is allowed. Checkout does not reserve a spot. If two people pay the same total, the earlier successful payment ranks higher — always. No refunds.
  • The on-page rank preview is an estimate and can change while you check out.

What you can list

  • A product, website, or any URL you own or run — a tool, landing page, or link.
  • An X profile as @handle or x.com/handle. Handles normalize to x.com.
  • Chat and invite links are not listed (Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord, Signal, Messenger, etc.).
  • Sexual and adult content is not listed.
  • Query parameters are stripped (Play Store id is kept). Affiliate and tracking URLs will not work.
  • Links are keyed by full path — two pages on the same domain are separate listings.
  • Link shorteners are not allowed.

After you pay

  • A completed Creem.io payment claims the rank. Your listing appears within about a minute.
  • Clicks go through betterbid and then to your URL. The count is public.
  • Title, description, and favicon (or X avatar) are pulled when you bid.
  • There is no listing “owner” account. Anyone who pays for a URL adds to that URL’s lifetime total.

Payments and refunds

  • Creem.io is the merchant of record. Applicable tax is handled at checkout.
  • Bids are non-refundable. Being outbid or matched is not a refund reason.
  • Listings that break these rules may be removed without a refund.
  • Payment issues: email [email protected] before opening a dispute.
