Rules
Top Dubai Eats is a public leaderboard. You pay to stand above everyone else. Rank is the bid — nothing else.
How ranking works
- New listings start at $5 and move $1 at a time, up to a maximum of $999,999.
- Taking #1 costs at least $5 more than the current top bid. Paying less still puts you on the board at whatever rank that bid can take.
- Enter the same website or @handle again to raise that listing to any rank. The new bid must be at least $1 above your current bid; you only pay the difference, and no one can take your rank by paying that difference.
- Equal bids stay in the order they were placed — the older bid keeps the higher rank.
- Every category is a separate leaderboard with its own #1.
What you can list
- A website, or a social profile (X, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn) for a Dubai spot.
- App Store, Play Store and GitHub links are keyed by their path, so different apps don't share a bid.
- Query, affiliate and tracking parameters are stripped from links.
- Chat and invite links are not allowed — WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, Messenger, Signal and similar. The board is for products and profiles, not group chats.
- Link shorteners are not allowed. Submit the real destination URL — we follow redirects and check where they actually land.
- No adult or NSFW content.
Categories
You choose your category when you list. If it ends up in the wrong one, email us and we'll move it.
After you pay
- Your listing is public and clicks go straight to your link.
- A completed payment is what claims the rank.
- We may remove any listing that breaks these rules.
