How it works

Rules

The whole mechanism, in one page. Rank is what you pay — these are the details around that.

01The boards#

One payment ranks you on every board. The boards look at different windows of time.

  • All-time is the main board. Rank is everything you have ever paid for that listing. It does not expire.
  • Today is a rolling 24 hours. Each payment counts from the moment you paid, then drops off a day later.
  • Daily is a UTC calendar day. The current day stays live; past days freeze as an archive.

02How ranking works#

  • New listings start at ₹100 minimum, up to a ₹1,00,00,000 maximum, in whole rupees.
  • Passing someone costs a raise step, which depends on what they hold — the table below.
  • Taking #1 costs that step plus ₹100, so the top spot always costs more than the place below it.
  • Paying less still puts you on the board at whatever rank that amount can take.
  • Equal amounts stay in the order they were placed — the older listing keeps the higher rank.
  • Already listed? Enter the same link again to raise your rank. The raise must be at least one step, and you are charged only the difference.
  • Nobody can take your rank by paying that difference. Re-entering your link always tops up your listing.
  • Rank is live. Nothing is reserved and no position is held: what you pay is added to your listing, and where that puts you is worked out at the moment anyone looks. Someone can pay more at any time, including in the seconds while your own payment is being confirmed, and there is no refund if that happens.
Amount being passedStep
₹100 to ₹499₹10
₹500 to ₹1,999₹20
₹2,000 to ₹9,999₹50
₹10,000 to ₹49,999₹250
₹50,000 to ₹99,999₹1,000
₹1,00,000 and above₹2,500

The step is read off the amount being passed, not off yours. Passing a listing holding ₹600 costs ₹20 whether you are new to the board or already hold ₹80,000.

03Payments are final#

There are no refunds. Once your payment is captured and a rank assigned, that rank is final. This applies if you change your mind, if you mistyped your link, and if your listing is removed for breaking these rules.

We may remove any listing that breaks these rules or becomes harmful — including a link whose destination changes after it was listed. Removal does not entitle anyone to money back.

Because there are no refunds, we check every submission before taking payment. If your link cannot be listed, you will be told why and charged nothing.

04If someone listed your profile#

Anyone can list any public profile — there are no accounts here, so we cannot tell who owns what. If your X, Instagram or YouTube profile has been listed and you would rather it were not, tell us and we will remove it. You do not need to prove you paid for it, because you did not.

Whoever paid does not get their money back (see above). That is between them and their decision to list someone else.

05What you can list#

  • A product website, or an X @handle.
  • Chat and invite links are not allowed — Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord, Signal, Messenger and similar. The board is for products and profiles, not group chats.
  • Sexual and adult content is not allowed.
  • Link shorteners are not allowed. If you submit one, the link it points to is listed instead — and that destination must also follow these rules.
  • Tracking, referral and affiliate parameters are stripped from every link.

06After you pay#

  • Your listing is public, and the amount you paid is public.
  • Clicks go to your link with tracking parameters removed.
  • Click counts shown on the board are measured, never estimated or inflated.
  • Your rank appears once your payment is confirmed by the payment provider.

07How the numbers are counted#

Every figure published on this site is a count of something that happened. Nothing is estimated, projected, scaled up, smoothed or rounded in our favour. Where a number is not known, it is left out rather than filled in. These are the exact definitions.

  • Clicks — one per visit sent from a listing to its link. Counted when the visit is handed over, not when a button is pressed, so a click that goes nowhere is not counted. Repeat visits by the same person all count: they are all traffic the board sent you.
  • Visitors — distinct browsers seen that day. A browser is recognised by a random token it generates and stores itself. Nobody is identified, and no attempt is made to work out whether two browsers are the same person — so somebody using a phone and a laptop counts twice, which we would rather do than track anybody.
  • New visitors — visitors whose first ever visit was that day.
  • Page views — one per page opened by a counted visitor. A tab left open all day is one view, not one a minute.
  • Online now — visitors seen in the last five minutes. A tab in the background is not counted as watching.
  • Peak at once — the highest “online now” that day reached.
  • Total paid — every rupee ever credited, minus anything reversed. It is the same sum the board ranks by, so the headline figure always equals the board.
  • Listings — listings currently on the board. Removed listings are not counted.

A day means a calendar day in Indian Standard Time, midnight to midnight — the same day boundary the daily board and the archive use.

Visitors, page views and peak-at-once are counted as they happen and cannot be worked out after the fact, so they begin on the day we started counting them. Days before that are shown as blank on the charts rather than as zero. A zero would mean nobody came; blank means nobody was counting.

Clicks that reach a listing through an automated crawler are not traffic and are excluded where we can tell. If we ever cannot tell, the number stays as measured — we will not adjust a figure by guesswork in either direction.
