## How it works

Builders can purchase one-time promotional sidebar slots on the advertise page. Up to 10 slots display in a labeled Promoted section on the products directory - separate from organic main-feed ranking. Choose a 7-day or 30-day run; one charge, no auto-renew. Builder subscribers receive a discount on slot purchases.

Slots activate when payment succeeds. You may end an active slot early from Settings → Billing (End promotion); sidebar display stops immediately and unused time is not refunded. A product with an active paid slot may keep appearing in the sidebar for the booked period even if you later archive the listing. New slot purchases require a published, non-reported product you own.

A successful slot purchase also adds its price (the US-dollar checkout price, excluding processor tax or currency conversion) to the product's permanent Leading Bids total. The sidebar slot expires at the end of the booked period; the Leading Bids contribution does not, and is not removed if you end the slot early or the slot is refunded.
