For business

Featured placement

Labelled placement at the top of the category hubs where your customers already look — for listings that are already in the directory on the same evidence terms as everyone else.

Price

$99 / month

Monthly, cancel at any period end. Capacity-limited: at most 2 per category hub, 4 in the homepage rotation. Sold only after an editor confirms eligibility and a free slot.

What you get

  • Placement at the top of your category hub, above the organic list, with equal daily rotation among featured merchants in that category.
  • A place in the homepage featured rotation.
  • A "Featured" label on your card everywhere it appears.
  • Priority processing for listing updates you send us.
  • A monthly report of impressions and clicks from our own first-party ledgers (sample below).

What it never buys

Your verification status, badge, coin list, network list, sources, last-checked date or description. Those are decided by evidence, on the same terms as every free listing, by code that has no access to commercial state. Featured does not place you in a category you are not in, or above a filter you do not match: in the Finder, a featured merchant that does not match the filter does not appear.

Basic factual information about your business, and corrections to it, are free and always will be — claim or correct your listing.

Sample report

Sample — illustrative figures, not a real merchant's results 
Featured placement report — Example Hosting — 2026-10

Impressions: 1,240   (site-defined: ≥50% visible for 1s, once per placement per page view)
  category-hub: 980
  home: 260
Clicks on the featured card: 41
Outbound clicks to your website from StablecoinSpend (all pages): 63
Click-through rate on impressions: 3.3%

How these are measured: impressions and clicks come from StablecoinSpend's own first-party ledgers, deduplicated by event id. Visitors who send Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control are not counted. No bot-detection service is used, so automated traffic may be included. This is a site-defined measurement, not an industry-certified audience count. Nothing in this report reflects or affects your listing's verification status.

Real audience figures for the site are on the press page when we have them; we do not put projected results in a media kit.

Terms

  • Eligibility. The listing must exist and hold a verified, recently confirmed or "availability varies" status. Ownership of the business address is confirmed by email; an editor may ask for more.
  • Approval and expiry. An approved application receives a personal payment link valid for 14 days. It reserves the slot; if unpaid, it lapses and the slot is released.
  • Billing and activation. Billing starts at payment. Activation within 2 working days, confirmed by email. Monthly reports cover full calendar months.
  • Cancellation. Any time, from the billing portal; the placement runs to the end of the paid period. No partial-month refunds for cancellation.
  • Refunds. The current period is refunded in full if we cannot activate within the stated window, or if a correction we make to your record makes it ineligible. A dispute over a factual claim is handled under the corrections policy and is never resolved by payment.
  • No guarantees. We make no promise about clicks, rankings, sales or search-engine position. Impressions and clicks are reported as measured, with the limitations stated in every report.
  • Ending a placement. We may end a placement, with a pro-rata refund, if the listing's status falls to unverified or discontinued.

Apply for a placement

Not a purchase. You confirm your business address by email, an editor checks eligibility and capacity, and if a slot is free you receive a payment link. Not listed yet? Submit your business first — the free listing is the same editorial process.

An address on the business's own domain. A confirmation link is sent to it; the payment link, if approved, goes to the same address.

We store what you send here, a timestamp and a one-way hash of your IP for abuse handling, outside the web root. It is a business contact record, kept while the application or placement is open and deletable on request. See the privacy policy.

Featured placement questions

Does Featured change my verification status or badge?
No. Placement is a commercial product; verification is editorial and depends only on evidence. A Featured listing shows the same status, coin list, sources and dates it would show for free, and the code that decides placement has no access to those fields.
Can I be Featured if my listing is unverified?
No. Placement is available to listings whose status is verified, recently confirmed, or "availability varies". The content schema refuses to build a featured record that is unverified, and an editor checks eligibility before issuing a payment link.
What if the category is full?
Each category hub carries at most 2 featured placements and the homepage rotation at most 4. If your category is full we say so rather than sell a slot that does not exist; you can ask to be told when one opens.
When does billing start, and when does the placement go live?
Billing starts when payment completes. An editor activates the placement within 2 working days (it requires a site deploy) and confirms by email. The first monthly report covers the first full calendar month.
How do I cancel, and what about refunds?
Cancel any time from the billing portal link in your purchase email; the placement runs to the end of the paid period and then ends. Refunds follow the terms below: if we cannot activate within the stated window, or your listing becomes ineligible because of a correction we make, the current period is refunded in full.
