Buy a spot at the top
A Featured launch puts your listing in the labelled Featured spot on the homepage for 7 days. It costs $19. You can buy it when you submit your listing, or later from /account/listings by choosing "Upgrades and extras" next to your listing.
Any live listing or booking into a launch week can be featured, whether you are a free or paid user.
When your Featured days start
If your listing is already live, the 7 days begin as soon as you pay. If your launch is booked for a later week, they start on the Monday that week begins—when your listing goes live.
Buying Featured again while it is running adds 7 more days after the current run ends. If you reschedule your launch week, your Featured days move with it.
What Featured does not do
Featured is a paid placement only. It:
- Never adds a vote to your listing
- Never changes any ranking or leaderboard position
- Is always labelled as Featured
- Cannot be swapped for a sponsorship (see /sponsor) or the billboard
- Stays separate from community votes
Check the Pricing page at /pricing for the current cost.
