bidwar is a public leaderboard. There are no ads, no API keys and no revenue share. You pay to stand above everyone else. Rank is what you pay — nothing else.
The boards
One payment ranks you on every board that includes that spend. The boards just 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 until it closes; past days freeze as an archive.
How ranking works
- New listings are whole US dollars, $5 minimum, $999,999 maximum, $1 at a time.
- Taking #1 costs at least $1 more than the current #1. 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 URL or @handle again to raise your rank. The new amount must be at least $1 above your current one; checkout only charges the difference.
- App-store, Play-store and GitHub links are keyed by their path, so different apps don't share a rank. Tracking query strings are ignored.
What you can list
- A product website, or an X @handle.
- No chat or invite links (Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord and similar). The board is for products and profiles, not group chats.
- No sexual or adult content.
- Query parameters are stripped. Affiliate, referral and tracking URLs will not work.
- Link shorteners are replaced by the URL they redirect to.
Categories
Pick a category when you claim. If your product is in the wrong one, message @tanishmundra to have it changed.
After you pay
- Your listing is public. Clicks go to the URL or profile you submitted, without query parameters.
- A completed payment is what claims the rank. Payments are not refundable.
- Paying means you agree to the Terms and Privacy Policy.
