HighRank Official Rules
Transparent rules governing starting bids, Top 10 rankings, difference outbidding, and platform integrity.
Your previous payment of $4 counts forever toward your total ranking value of $7.
Minimum Starting Bid ($1 USD)
Every eligible product, SaaS tool, website, or X creator profile can enter the live rankings starting at just $1 USD. Rankings activate as soon as the real payment is verified via Dodo Payments.
TOP 10 Showcase & Other Listings
HighRank prominently showcases the 10 highest-ranked products in the primary TOP 10 Leaderboard in the central spotlight. All other active listings appear in the Other Ranked Products grid directly below.
Paid Rank-Up & Difference Billing
When raising your product's total bid, you only pay the exact difference: Desired Total minus Current Total (e.g. from $4 to $7, you pay exactly $3 via Dodo Payments).
Verified Ranking Valuation
The leaderboard position of every listing is determined strictly by its accumulated verified total bid amount. Standings are updated atomically in real time.
Deterministic Tie-Breaker Rule
If two products share the exact same total bid amount, the product with the earlier verified payment timestamp (ranked_at) ranks higher (First-Come, First-Served).
URL Normalization & Eligibility
All submitted URLs are normalized (protocol standardization, www trimming, tracking param stripping, and X/Twitter handle canonicalization). Localhost, private IPs, and unsafe protocols (javascript:, file:, data:) are strictly rejected.
Instant Live Activation
Paid rank-up bids update the live leaderboard in real-time as soon as the Dodo Payments webhook confirms the transaction.
Permanent Cumulative Bid Equity
All cash payments accumulate permanently on your listing. You never lose your prior investments when outbidding competitors.
Content Moderation & Integrity
HighRank prohibits malware, phishing, deceptive scams, adult content, hate speech, or illegal services. Administrators reserve the right to reject or hide violating listings.
Strict Non-Refundable Policy
All cash bid payments are final and non-refundable. You are purchasing real-time marketplace discovery and ranking; positions fluctuate dynamically as participants compete.
