Plain-language guide
ProofRank is paid sponsored placement, not a product-quality or reputation endorsement. Rankings show confirmed payments under clear rules; they do not certify a company or its products.
Today means the current UTC day. Ranking uses the highest individual confirmed payment per canonical company that day. The top 10 are shown.
All-time ranks the top 10 by cumulative historically confirmed payments under each canonical company.
A UTC day starts at 00:00 and ends just before the next 00:00 UTC. Closed daily archives are immutable.
Repeated payments for the same domain aggregate to its first canonical company. That company's original name, URL, logo, and category remain authoritative.
The full bid is charged through Stripe Checkout. Bids have a USD 30 minimum and use USD 5 increments.
Completed sponsorship purchases are final and non-refundable.
A signed webhook and database confirmation—not a redirect—authorizes publication. Company details are collected only after payment confirmation, and publication is immediate after a valid submission. There is no manual review.
Recovery works in the same browser only, using an HttpOnly cookie. The recovery credential expires. There is no login, email recovery, or cross-device recovery. Clearing browser cookies or using another device prevents recovery.
Metrics are tracked as viewable impressions and outbound redirect attempts. Their reporting windows are Today (UTC), Trailing 7 days (168 hours), Trailing 30 days (720 hours), and All-time. The public performance interface is live on live ranking cards. Archives remain immutable and untracked; we do not publish invented numbers.
ProofRank has no accounts. A rotating, daily pseudonymous same-browser key deduplicates events. We do not use an account, IP address, user-agent, or browser fingerprint. These controls limit, but cannot eliminate, automated traffic.
After signed payment confirmation, submit the requested company details. A valid submission publishes immediately; there is no manual review.
Completed sponsorship purchases are final and non-refundable.
A paid Global Sponsor placement has no expiration date. The current sponsor remains visible until another sponsor pays the required amount—exactly USD 20 more than the current confirmed amount—completes the verified purchase and profile, and replaces it.
A failed or expired payment never authorizes publication. Start a new bid if you still want to sponsor a placement.
A payment Stripe records as refunded or disputed no longer authorizes a new publication or profile change. That does not mean an earlier publication or historical record vanished.
No. A closed daily archive is immutable, so there is no archive correction path.
No. Ranking follows confirmed payment rules and canonical-company aggregation. Placement cannot be bought as a quality signal, endorsement, or reputation claim.
