Questions before you join?

Why does the free option require a badge?

The free option asks founders to place the official Zero Revenue Club badge on their homepage. We verify the badge automatically before sending the submission to moderation.

Does the $4.99 option improve my ranking?

No. The $4.99 option only removes the badge requirement. Free and paid submissions use the same moderation review and organic ranking rules.

Is this the same as a Featured Listing?

No. Paid submission is a one-time $4.99 submission option. Featured Listings are separate paid placements with separate visibility rules on the Advertise page.

When do I pay and when can I get a refund?

The $4.99 payment happens before review through Dodo Payments. If the submission is rejected, the full payment is refunded automatically.

Are both options reviewed?

Yes. Every submission is reviewed before it becomes public. The paid option does not bypass eligibility or moderation review.
