$5 per upvote.
Buy any amount.
Upvotes cost $5.00 each. Buy any quantity — 1 for $5, 20 for $100, 200 for $1,000, up to $50,000.00 (10,000 upvotes). Each upvote adds $5 to the project only after the payment provider sends a valid signed settlement event. The public board ranks active projects by net settled total. It’s a one-time purchase, not a subscription.
The board uses settled records.

Refund and dispute reversals subtract from the same public ledger. Bidstage uses net settled totals for rank.

Complete payment

Publish the entry
A signed webhook settles the payment. New projects enter review; active projects receive another ledger entry.
