Royal Decrees
How the board works, what's allowed, and what happens when you're outranked. Plain and honest.

What this is
Richie Rich is a public leaderboard where you pay to place a link. You are buying a promotional placement: a featured spot and the visibility that comes with it. Nothing here is a contest or lottery, and nothing is ever paid back out.
How placement works
Rank is decided purely by the amount paid, highest first. The highest amount holds #1, the throne. Paying less than #1 still places you; you land wherever your amount ranks on the board.
The minimum placement is $5. To take the throne, pay more than the current #1.
Raising your spot
Enter the same link again to raise it. You pay the difference between your new total and your current amount, and your listing moves to the rank the new total buys.
Ties
If two listings hold the same amount, the earlier placement holds the higher rank. Insertion order breaks ties.
Allowed links
Mainstream social links (Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, X) and most personal sites, newsletters, and link hubs are welcome. We detect the platform and show the matching icon; anything else gets a neutral link icon.
Prohibited links
Adult or sexually explicit links, and anything illegal, are prohibited.
- Adult / explicit / pornographic links.
- Illegal content, or links promoting illegal activity.
- Abusive, harassing, or deceptive links.
Removal without refund
We may remove any listing that breaks these rules at our sole discretion. Removal forfeits the amount paid. No refund. Placement of a prohibited link does not entitle you to anything.
No payouts, no refunds
Money only ever flows one way: into a placement. Nothing monetary is ever returned to any user. Being outranked returns nothing; your placement was delivered when you paid. All placements are final.
