Rules
Effective and last updated: September 1, 2026
BidOrbit is a public leaderboard rendered as a solar system. Rank is what you pay — nothing else. There are no ads, no editorial curation, and no way to buy a rank other than outbidding whoever holds it.
The ranks
There are nine fixed ranks. The highest bidder owns the Sun (#1). The next eight highest bidders own a planet, in order out to Neptune. Everyone else orbits further out, in the Kuiper List.
Ranks are labelled by orbit rather than by number. SOL is the Sun — first place, at the centre. After that, Orbit I is Mercury and second place, Orbit II is Venus and third, and so on out to Orbit VIII — Neptune, and ninth. The further from the Sun, the lower the bid. Kuiper List entries keep a plain number, counting outward from the first one past Neptune.
The boards
- All-time is the main board. Rank is everything you have ever paid. It does not expire.
- Today is scoped to bids placed since midnight UTC. A bid drops off this board once the day resets.
- Daily keeps a permanent archive — one closed board per day, forever.
- Categories run the same all-time mechanic scoped to one vertical at a time.
How outbidding works
You can outbid the current holder of any spot — planet or Kuiper — at any time, by paying more than they currently hold that spot for. There is no lock-in period and no tiebreaker beyond the clock: the higher bid wins, and if two bids are ever equal, the earlier bid keeps the higher rank.

A completed payment is what claims the rank — see our Refund & Cancellation Policy for why payments are final.
