Rules

The Drop is one slot on one page. No ads, no API keys, no revenue share. You pay to stand there, and you stand there until somebody pays more recently than you. The clock is the whole mechanism — nothing else decides who is on the page.

01How the price works

  • The price starts at $10 and loses 1% of its current value every minute. It never falls below $5.
  • Because it is a percentage of a falling number, the drop is steep while the slot is expensive and gentle once it is cheap — about $0.10 a minute at $10, about $0.05 at $5.
  • When someone buys, the price resets to 1.5× what they paid and starts falling again.
  • Starting checkout freezes the price and holds the slot for 3 minutes. You pay the frozen figure, whatever the clock does while you are typing your card in.
  • If you do not finish in that window the slot is released and the clock resumes exactly where it paused. Walking away from a checkout does not hand the next buyer free decay.
  • The price is computed on the server. What your browser shows is a mirror of it, corrected for a wrong local clock — a client that lies about what it saw gets charged what the clock actually says.

02What you can list

A product website, or a profile. On X, Instagram, TikTok, GitHub, YouTube and LinkedIn the listing is shown as the @handle rather than the domain, because the domain alone would be the same for everybody.

  • Links must be a real domain served over https. Bare IP addresses, localhost and internal hostnames are refused at checkout.
  • Link shorteners are refused — bit.ly, t.co, tinyurl and the rest. What gets published has to be the destination itself, not a redirect that can be repointed the moment it is live.
  • Chat and invite links are not allowed: Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord, Messenger, Signal and similar. This is for products and profiles, not group chats.
  • Links to sexual content are not allowed. Porn, NSFW and adult platforms do not belong here.
  • Affiliate, referral and tracking links are not allowed. List the real destination.
  • Links are capped at 300 characters.

The link is checked before your card is ever charged, not afterwards when a refund would be the only remedy left. If it fails a check you are told immediately and nothing is taken.

03After you pay

  • Your listing goes live the moment the payment settles. There is no review step and no queue.
  • The page shows the best it can find: your site's preview image, or its icon beside the name, or a monogram.
  • Clicks through to your link are counted and shown next to it. It is a rough figure, deduplicated loosely, and nothing is billed on it — treat it as a signal, not a measurement.
  • You hold the slot until somebody else takes it. That may be minutes and it may be weeks; there is no minimum, and none is implied by what you paid.
  • All sales final. Being outbid is the point, not a defect.
  • A completed payment is what claims the slot. Nothing else does.

Any listing can be removed at any time. Removed for breaking these rules, no refund is due. Removed for any other reason, you get your money back. To report a live listing or reach us, DM @LoPard49 on X.
