Plain version: you pay once, you hold the tile until someone outpays you, and there are no refunds. The rest is detail. Last updated 2026-08-23.
What you are buying
A tile is a slot on a public board. You pay once to put a logo, a line of text and a link on it. That is the whole product.
You are buying exposure and clicks. You are not buying a ranking, an SEO outcome, an amount of traffic, or a promise that anyone will look at it. We publish live click counts on every listing page so you can judge for yourself what it is worth.
Every outbound link on this site carries rel="sponsored" — on the board and on your listing page. We do not sell links that pass ranking signals, and we will not agree to any arrangement that does, at any price.
Holding a tile
You hold a tile for as long as nobody outpays you. Every tile’s heat halves every three days. Position on the board is heat and nothing else.
Once every tile is taken, anyone can take yours by paying 1.5× its current heat, and never less than the current floor price. When that happens your logo comes off the board immediately.
Nobody owns a tile. There is no lease, no term, and no renewal. Topping up raises your heat; it does not buy you protection.
No refunds
Payment is final. There are no refunds, partial refunds, credits or transfers — not when you are evicted, not when your heat decays, not when you change your mind, and not when the board turns out to send you less traffic than you hoped.
You paid for the time you held the tile. That is the deal, and it is the same deal for everyone on the board.
If you open a chargeback, we will remove your tile and will not restore it.
What we will not carry
Gambling, adult content, crypto schemes, malware, phishing, counterfeit goods, and anything illegal where we operate.
We may remove any tile, at any time, for any reason we consider good — including reasons not listed here — and we will not refund it. We screen at checkout, but screening is not approval: passing the automated check does not mean the tile is permanently accepted.
You are responsible for what you put on your tile and for where it points. If your link later starts pointing somewhere it should not, that is grounds for removal without refund.
Availability
The board is a small operation. It may go down, lose data, change its rules, or shut down entirely. If it shuts down, tiles stop existing and nothing is refunded.
Prices, the decay rate and the eviction multiplier can change. Changes apply going forward — we will not retroactively reprice something you already paid for.
Liability
To the extent the law allows, our total liability to you for anything connected with this site is capped at what you have paid us in the previous thirty days.
We are not liable for lost profits, lost traffic, lost rankings, or any indirect or consequential loss.
What we keep
Your email address, so you can claim your tile and so we can tell you when someone takes it. Your logo, anchor text and link, because those are the product. A record of what you paid, because we have to.
Card details are handled by Stripe and never reach us. Click counts are aggregated per tile per day — we do not build profiles of the people who click.
To stop the emails, use the unsubscribe link in any of them. That does not affect your tile.
