Rules

The whole game is one number. Here is everything that number touches.

Ranking

Rank is decided by the total you have paid on a listing. Biggest total sits at #1.
Equal totals keep their order. Whoever reached that number first stays above.
Nothing expires. A spot stays yours until somebody wants it more than you do.
There is no editorial layer. No votes, no ranking model, no promoted slots.

The minimum bid is $1, and bids move in whole dollars.
Taking #1 costs $1 more than the current top total.
If your listing is already on the board, you pay only the difference between your current total and your new one. You never pay for the same ground twice.
You can bid any amount. Less than the top price is not a rejected bid, it is simply a lower rank.
A bid takes effect when the payment clears. Opening checkout claims nothing.
Payments run through Stripe. bidrush never sees or stores your card details.
Discount codes count as paid. If you use one, your listing still climbs by the full amount, and bidrush covers the difference. Rank always reflects what a listing has been credited.

Post about your listing and tag @bcaparing on X, and you get a code for $1 off your next bid.
Codes are sent by DM, by hand, one per person. There is no automatic check, so give it a little time.
Deleting the post after collecting a code is the kind of thing that ends the offer for everyone.

Anything with a public link: a product, an app, a song, a video, a shop, a newsletter, a repo, a portfolio, a profile. Or an X @handle, typed as @name.
No chat or invite links. Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord, Messenger, Signal and the like are all out.
No sexual content.
One domain, one slot. Bids pointing at the same domain stack onto the same listing rather than creating a second row.
Platforms that host many unrelated things, such as the App Store, Google Play, Spotify, YouTube, Instagram, GitHub, Etsy and Gumroad, are tracked by path instead, so two songs or two apps on the same platform get their own slots.

Query strings are stripped. We keep the clean address, not your campaign parameters.
Short links are expanded to wherever they actually point, and the destination is what gets listed.
Clicks go straight to your URL. Nothing is appended, no tracking parameters, no interstitial page.
Your title, blurb and icon are read from your own page. Update them on your side, and they refresh the next time a bid lands.
