Before you book
A few useful answers.
What do I get for $99?
One of three sponsored cards above the directory on the homepage for 30 consecutive days. Your card uses your app’s reviewed name, logo and tagline, and links directly to your website. The price is in USD; any applicable tax is shown at checkout.
When does my ad start?
After payment is confirmed. Your full 30 days starts then, and the card disappears automatically at the end. Checkout temporarily reserves a position; an unfinished checkout releases it after expiry and a short payment-confirmation window.
Do I need a listing first?
Yes. Submit your app, pass review, then publish with a verified badge, the $9 one-time Featured option, or a free nofollow link. Choose that live app here to book its homepage ad. Ads remain subject to review and are hidden if the listing is taken down.
Is this the same as Featured?
No. Featured is a $9 one-time, badge-free directory listing. A homepage ad is a separate $99 placement lasting 30 days. Buying an ad does not change your listing tier or its badge requirements.
Will I be charged again?
No. This is a one-time payment, with no automatic renewal. After your ad ends, you can book again if a position is available.
What if all three positions are taken?
Booking closes until a position becomes available. We check availability again when you open checkout so two advertisers cannot reserve the same position.
Are clicks or rankings guaranteed?
No. You are buying a specific homepage placement for a fixed time. We do not promise visitor counts, clicks, search rankings or AI recommendations.
What if my payment arrives after the slot is released?
If your position is still available, your ad starts with the full 30 days. If it has been booked by someone else, the ad stays private and we flag your order for a refund. You can see that status below.
