Be the first — claim #1 from $1
The live board is open and has no approved listings yet. The first product that pays from $1 and passes review takes the top spot. Anyone can then outbid by $1. The counters above are live zeros, not placeholders.

Ad policy & terms
Clear rules for every placement
What we refuse
- Adult content, gambling or betting
- Crypto giveaways, investment schemes or “guaranteed returns”
- Illegal products, piracy, hacked accounts, fake reviews or followers
- Misleading health, medical or weight-loss claims
- Malware, phishing or deceptive redirects
Labels & links
Every position is labelled as an ad. Outbound links use rel="sponsored nofollow noopener" and pass through a click counter at /go/. Rank depends only on the amount paid.
Review
A person reviews every listing before it goes live, and we may edit for length or reject. We may remove a listing that later breaks these rules.
Refunds
Full refund if we reject your listing, or if you ask before it goes live. After a listing is live, the placement has been delivered and is non-refundable, except where the law requires.
No guarantees
We publish real click counts, but we do not promise traffic, sign-ups, sales or search rankings. See also our site terms and privacy policy.
FAQ
Leaderboard questions
How does the GearPicked Leaderboard rank products?
Purely by the total amount paid for each approved listing on the main board. The highest total is #1. If two listings have the same total, the one that reached it first ranks higher. Nothing else — not reviews, not traffic — changes the order, and every position is labelled as a paid ad.
How much does it cost to claim a rank?
The minimum is $1 USD. To take a position, pay $1 more than the listing currently in it; to take #1, pay $1 more than the current #1 total. Amounts are whole US dollars and add up: you can top up your own listing at any time from its details page.
What is today’s board?
A separate one-day board for cheap, short placements from $1. It shows payments for listings that went live on the current UTC day and resets at 00:00 UTC. Today’s-board amounts do not count toward the main board.
When does my listing go live?
After two checks: PayPal confirms the payment, and a person reviews the listing against the ad policy. This usually takes 24–48 hours. Until then it stays pending and is not shown.
Are leaderboard links dofollow?
No. Leaderboard links are paid, so they use rel="sponsored nofollow" as Google requires for paid links. Buy a placement for visibility and clicks from readers, not for search-engine link value.
Can I get a refund?
Yes, in full if we reject your listing, or if you ask before it goes live. Once a listing is live, the placement has been delivered and payments are not refundable, except where the law requires. We may remove a live listing that later breaks the policy, without refund.
What is the directory + leaderboard combo?
Our directory submission service (Launch 100 or Full Coverage 200 directories) plus a $30 ranking credit on this leaderboard, for $10 less than buying both separately. After buying a combo, submit your product here, choose “I bought a combo” and paste the PayPal transaction ID.
Are the stats real?
Yes. Live listings, total placed and outbound clicks are counted from the database. The board started empty on 8 November 2026; we do not add sample or fake listings. Clicks exclude obvious bots and prefetches.
