FAQ
Short answers. The rules win if anything here disagrees.
What is Spawnrank?
A public leaderboard for games where rank is what you pay. You list a game, pay an amount, and sit above every game that paid less. Players click through to wherever the game lives.
How much does it cost?
New listings start at $5. Taking #1 costs at least $5 more than the current #1. Any other rank costs $1 more than the game there. If you're already listed, you only pay the difference when you raise.
What's the difference between Today, Last 7 days and All-time?
One payment counts on all three. Today resets at midnight UTC. Last 7 days counts each payment for exactly 7 days, then drops it. All-time never resets.
Which stores can I link to?
Steam, Epic, itch.io, App Store, Google Play, Nintendo eShop, PlayStation Store, Microsoft Store, and your own website. Up to five links per game.
Will I see Spawnrank traffic in my own analytics?
Where the store allows it. Steam and websites get utm_source=spawnrank, Google Play gets the same tags inside its referrer parameter, and the App Store gets a ct campaign token (add your pt provider token to your listing). itch.io shows us as a referrer on its own. Nintendo, PlayStation, Xbox and Epic don't share referral data, so the click counts on Spawnrank are the record there.
Can players back a game?
Yes. Anyone can raise any game. It only ever moves that game up.
Are payments refundable?
No. Payments are final, except a duplicate charge from a technical error.
How do I report a listing?
Use the report link on the game's page. We remove copied games, adult content, gambling and anything else the rules don't allow.
