Rules
Outbid Creators is a public leaderboard. No ads, no API keys, no revenue share. You pay to stand above everyone else. Rank is the bid, nothing else.
How ranking works
1. Whole dollars, $1 at a time
New listings start at $1 minimum, $999,999 maximum, in whole-dollar amounts only. A bid already on the board keeps its rank until it’s raised, outranked, or the board resets for the week.
2. Every bid just needs to clear the target by $1
A brand new listing only needs to beat the current top bid by $1 to take #1, same as beating any other rank. Paying less still puts you on the board at whatever rank that bid can take. Equal bids stay in the order they were placed, the older bid keeps the higher rank.
3. Already-listed creators top up the same way
Enter your own handle again to raise your listing to any rank. The new bid must be at least $1 above your current bid, and you only pay the difference, the same $1 minimum applies whether you’re taking #1 or any other rank. No one else can take your rank by paying just the gap between your bid and theirs.
4. Bids aren't refunded
Money spent bidding is not refunded when you get outbid, same as the original outbid.lol. Payments are processed securely by Stripe.
5. The board resets every week
Every Friday at 01:00 UTC, every bid drops back to $0 and the board empties out, so everyone gets a fresh shot at the top. Your handle, profile info and click history all stay intact between resets, you just need to place a new bid to reappear on the board. Last week’s top 5 stays visible as a permanent record of who was on top right before each reset.
What you can list
6. Instagram profiles only
Submit any public Instagram profile, your own or a favorite creator’s to show them some love ♥, as an @handle or an instagram.com link. One spot per handle: submitting the same handle again raises that listing rather than creating a duplicate.
7. No chat apps, no shorteners, no tracking links
Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord, Messenger, Signal and similar chat/invite links aren’t accepted, this board is for creator profiles, not group chats. Link shorteners are resolved to wherever they actually point; if that isn’t an Instagram profile, the submission is rejected. Query strings and tracking parameters are stripped.
8. Keep it legitimate
No sexual or adult content, no impersonating someone else’s account, nothing illegal. Listings that break this get removed.
