Rank is the bid.

Take1 is a public leaderboard. No ads, no accounts, no revenue share. You pay to stand above everyone else.

How ranking works

Bids are whole US dollars, $2 minimum, $1 at a time.
Paying less than #1 still puts you on the board at whatever rank that bid can take. Equal bids stay in the order they were placed — the older bid keeps the higher rank.
Enter the same website or @handle again to raise that listing. The new bid must be at least $1 above the current top bid; you only pay the difference. Someone else cannot take your rank by paying that difference.
App Store, Play Store, GitHub, and similar platform links are keyed by their path, so different apps do not share a bid. Tracking query strings are ignored.
A leaderboard takeover costs 10× the current #1 and locks the first page (top 10) for 24 hours. Anyone else can steal it with another 10×.

A product website, or an X @handle.
Chat and invite links are not allowed — Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord, Messenger, Signal, and similar. The board is for products and profiles, not group chats.
Links to sexual content are not allowed. If it is porn, NSFW, or an adult platform, it does not belong on the board.
Query parameters are stripped from listing links. Affiliate, referral, and tracking URLs will not work.

Place bid opens Stripe Checkout. A completed payment is what claims the rank.
Your listing is public. Clicks go to the URL or profile you submitted, without query parameters.
