Rules
A clear place to discover websites and compete for visibility. These rules explain what the numbers mean, how payments are checked, and what belongs on the board.
The board
The Outbid is a public website leaderboard. The All-time board uses each listing’s cumulative amount, with no daily reset. The Today board counts customer payments approved and owner-added amounts assigned during the current UTC calendar day, from 00:00 to 00:00. Today resets at midnight UTC without changing All-time totals. It is a visibility board, not an independent quality ranking.
Customer payments are checked manually. Entries added directly by the site owner are marked Owner-added. Their assigned amounts can affect ranking, but do not represent verified customer payments.
Ranking and bids
- The first customer payment starts at 1 USDT, displayed as $1.00. Amounts may include up to two decimal places.
- For a new website to take first place, its bid must be at least $1.00 above the current leading amount. The live “Claim #1” amount shows the current target.
- You can submit a lower bid and take the position that amount earns.
- Additional verified payments for the same website add to its existing total. Enter the same website URL and check the quote before sending an additional payment. There is no automatic checkout charge.
- If two listings have the same total, the earlier listing keeps the higher position.
- Positions can change when another entry is approved or an owner-added amount is updated. A newly approved customer payment contributes to both All-time and Today. An owner-added amount counts for Today on the day it is first assigned or changed. Editing its description alone does not refresh its day.
What you can list
- Submit a public website or project page that you own or are authorized to represent.
- Use the direct destination URL and an accurate name and description. Do not use shortened, affiliate or misleading tracking links.
- Group chat and invitation links, including Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord and similar services, are not accepted.
- Pornographic, sexually explicit and adult platform links are not accepted.
- Scams, impersonation, malware and other harmful or unlawful content are not accepted. Entries may be rejected or removed if they break these rules.
- Keep the project’s identity and business or contact details accurate on the linked website. Being listed does not mean the business endorses The Outbid.
Categories
Choose the category that best describes the website. Categories help visitors browse relevant projects; they do not change a listing’s bid amount or guarantee a position.
Payments and review
- Customer payments use USDT on Ethereum (ERC20) only. Do not send another asset or use another network.
- Dollar amounts on the board are display values: a $5.00 bid means 5 USDT. Network fees are separate.
- Check the wallet and payment instructions, send the payment, and submit the transaction hash and requested details.
- A screenshot or submitted form alone does not verify a payment. The recipient, token, network, amount and completed transaction must be checked.
- A customer listing becomes public after payment review and approval. Submission does not guarantee immediate publication.
- Contact details and payment screenshots are kept private for admin review. Approved website details, category, position and amount appear publicly.
After publication
Approved paid placements are nonrefundable, except where applicable law requires otherwise. Review your website URL, listing details and payment instructions before sending funds.
Placement does not guarantee website visits, clicks, leads, sales or Google rankings. Your position may change as the board changes.
Check the current first place amount, then submit your website. By submitting, you confirm that you are authorized to list the website and agree to these rules.
