Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to the things people ask most. For the full rules, see How it works & Terms.

What is I'M THE RICHEST?

It's a single public leaderboard. The more money you put in, the higher you appear. You get a public profile (alias, country, avatar, message) and the bragging rights of your rank. That's the whole product — it's pure entertainment and status.

What do I actually get for my money?

A position on the leaderboard and a public profile you can share on social media. You do not get any goods, points with cash value, prizes, or any financial return. The money is spent — think of it like paying for entertainment.

Is this gambling?

No. There is no chance involved. Your rank is decided purely by how much you contribute — it's completely deterministic. There's no random outcome and no prize pool to win, so it isn't a lottery, betting, or a game of chance.

Is this an investment? Will I get my money back?

No. Contributions are not investments, savings or financial products. They earn nothing and cannot be withdrawn or cashed out. Never contribute money you can't afford to lose.

Can I get a refund?

No. All contributions are final and non-refundable, because your position updates immediately. See the refunds section for the full policy.

How do I climb the ranking?

Click "Take the throne", set up your profile, choose an amount and pay. Your contribution is added instantly and the leaderboard updates in real time. Pay again any time to climb higher — contributions add up.

Is my payment secure?

Yes. Payments are handled by a global, PCI-compliant third-party payment provider. We never see or store your full card details. In the EU, strong customer authentication (3D Secure) applies.

Which periods does the leaderboard show?

Four: all-time, monthly, weekly and daily. Each one ranks contributions made within that window.

Can I stay anonymous?

Your public identity is whatever alias and avatar you choose — you don't have to use your real name. Your payment details are handled privately by our payment processor and are never shown publicly.

Who can see my information?

Only the profile you create (alias, country, avatar, message, total contributed) is public. Your email and payment data are not public. See the Privacy Policy.

Can I delete my data?

Yes. You can request removal of your profile and associated personal data via our Contact page. Some records of completed transactions may be retained where the law requires (e.g. accounting). Details in the Privacy Policy.

Is there a minimum or maximum amount?

Yes, there are limits set at checkout. Very large contributions may require additional identity verification to comply with anti-fraud and anti-money-laundering practices.

How old do I have to be?

You must be at least 18 and use a payment method that belongs to you.

Is this legal?

The Service is designed as a transparent paid-entertainment product — not gambling, not an investment. Availability and tax treatment can vary by country, and you are responsible for ensuring use is lawful where you live.
