How bidding works
A fair, second-price auction
Bid only on the days you want, pay only the next-highest bid, and you're charged only if you win — no cost to enter.
Step 1
Bid on the days you wantPick days on your dashboard calendar and set a max bid for each. One server per game is featured per day — each day is its own auction.Step 2
It's second-priceYou pay only the next-highest bid, never your full max — and you're only charged if you win, so there's no cost to enter.Step 3
Book a month aheadBidding for a month runs through the month before it. Winners are charged on the 1st, then run live on each day they won.Step 4
Top of your game's pageOn each day you win, your server sits at the top of its game's page for the whole day — guaranteed.Step 5
Plus the global SpotlightEach day, one of every game's winners is crowned the global Spotlight — shown on the homepage and atop the All Games list. Most days it's a lucky dip, so winning is always a shot at it.
Guaranteed-global days
A few ★ days go straight to the top bid
A few guaranteed-global days each month (marked ★) go to the top bid. Every other day, one winner is picked at random — so winning your game is always a shot at the homepage.
Reach only, never rank
The Spotlight can't move anyone's rank
Hearts decide the leaderboard, always. The Spotlight buys reach — clearly labelled, never mixed into the rankings.
