The outbid.lol alternative where #1 gets cheaper
Same idea — a public leaderboard you buy your way onto. One rule changed: every payment decays 10% a day, so the price of the top falls by the hour instead of only ever climbing.
The short answer
outbid.love is an independent pay-to-rank leaderboard. Like outbid.lol, your position is decided by money rather than votes, editors or an algorithm, and there is no account to create. Unlike outbid.lol, a payment here is rent rather than property: it loses 10% of its value every day from the moment it clears. That single change flips the economics — on a permanent-bid board the cost of #1 only ratchets upward, while here it falls continuously until somebody tops up. Entry is $3, and the board is organised by city, so there are 5,000 separate #1 positions rather than one.
Why people go looking for an alternative
- The price only goes up. When bids are permanent, every new leader has to beat the highest amount anybody ever paid. A board that trends viral prices its own top spot out of reach within days.
- One payer parks at the top. Nothing dislodges a permanent #1 except a bigger cheque, so the interesting part of the game ends early and the board stops moving.
- Arriving late is a penalty. On a permanent board the people who showed up on day one hold the good positions indefinitely. Here the opposite is true: every hour you wait, the top gets cheaper.
What outbid.love does differently
- Decay, not permanence. $100 is worth $47.83 after a week and $22.88 after two. Below $1 a listing leaves the board.
- Cities, not one global list. Every city on Earth has its own #1 and its own page, and the cities compete against each other in a world league. Most of them are still unclaimed.
- Profiles, not just products. An X, TikTok, Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube or GitHub profile works as well as a website.
- Eighteen languages. The board, the city pages and the rules are translated, so a bid from anywhere lands on the same ranking without an English-only funnel.
What it costs today
Right now there are 5 listings live across 5 cities. The quietest city currently in play can be taken for $1.98, and any city nobody has claimed costs the $3 minimum. Those numbers move every hour, which is the point — check the live globe rather than trusting this paragraph.
Payment is by card through Shopier. Bids are quoted in US dollars and charged in Turkish lira at the live rate. No account, no email.

Questions
- Is there an alternative to outbid.lol?
- Yes. outbid.love is an independent pay-to-rank leaderboard built on the same idea — you pay money to hold a public ranking position — with one rule changed: every payment loses 10% of its value per day. Because bids decay, the price of the top spot falls every hour instead of only ever climbing, so the #1 position stays winnable from the $3 minimum.
- What is the cheapest pay-to-rank leaderboard right now?
- On a permanent-bid board the top spot costs whatever the highest historical payer spent, which on outbid.lol has run into five figures. On outbid.love the cost of #1 is one cent above the current leader's decayed value and drops continuously, and any of the 5,000 unclaimed cities can be taken for $3.
- Are there other sites like outbid.lol?
- Several. August 2026 turned pay-to-rank boards into a genre and a wave of clones followed, most of them copying the permanent-bid rule. What separates them is what happens to a payment after it lands: whether it sits there forever, expires on a timer, or — as here — decays continuously.
- Is outbid.love affiliated with outbid.lol?
- No. They are unrelated projects run by different people. outbid.love does not resell, mirror or syndicate outbid.lol listings, and nothing you buy here appears there.
- Can I list on both?
- Yes, and plenty of people do. Neither board is exclusive, so the same site or handle can appear on both at the same time.
- Which one is better value?
- It depends on the shape of the spend. A permanent bid is one payment for a position that slowly slides as others outbid it — simpler if you want a line item that stays listed. A decaying bid is a running cost for a position that is visible now — cheaper if you want the top during a launch week or a campaign, because you are renting attention rather than buying a plaque.
- What do I actually get for the money?
- A ranked listing that links out to your site or profile through a counted redirect, with the outbound click count shown publicly on every row. Links are nofollow, so it buys human traffic and visibility rather than search-engine link equity.
