The board

It’s empty. Somebody has to be first.

The income strip

Every cent, in public.

Pay A$3 to A$20. Your country moves up a live board. The money goes to the one person who built this site. Nothing goes to charity. This strip will show every figure, live, from a ledger anyone can download.

Become a row in history

You get a numbered, timestamped receipt in a public, hash-chained ledger, and your country’s total moves as soon as it settles.

Per capita is hard to buy: at most A$20 per card per day counts there, and a country needs 10 distinct cards before it is ranked. The total board has no cap. Rounds run Monday to Sunday, UTC, and the close never moves.

Questions

Fair questions.

What do I get?

A timestamped row in a public ledger that moves your country’s live rank. Here it is. Yes, it is a row in a spreadsheet. Literally.

What will they do with the money?

Keep it, after card fees and any tax owed. Your row and your country’s rank are what you bought. The money is ordinary income to the developer, and the ledger shows every cent of it.

Why not charity?

Because then this would be a charity, with charity law. If you want to fund a charity, fund a charity.

Can I get a refund?

All sales are final: we don’t refund a purchase because you changed your mind. This doesn’t limit your rights under the Australian Consumer Law. If something goes wrong, for example your row isn’t delivered as described or you were charged twice or in error, we’ll fix it or refund you. Any refund or dispute removes the credit from the board and publishes a matching negative row in the ledger.
