How it works

OutBidInsta is a public, pay-to-rank leaderboard for Instagram profiles. You pick a profile, choose a category, and pay to claim a rank. The highest confirmed paid bid is #1.

1. Paste your profile

Enter an @username or a link like instagram.com/username. We normalize it to a single canonical handle. We never ask for your Instagram password and we don't log in to Instagram.

2. Set your bid

The starting bid is $1. Every new bid on a profile must be at least $1 higher than that profile's current bid. The minimum next bid is always calculated on our server — the number in your browser is only a convenience.

• Current bid $10 → next bid $11
• A bid of $10.50 is rejected (below the minimum)
• A bid of $11 or $20 is valid

3. Pay to claim

You're redirected to our payment provider's secure checkout. Your rank only changes after we receive a verified payment confirmation from the provider — never from your browser saying “success”.

4. Someone got there first?

If another bid for the same amount is confirmed before yours, your payment can't claim the position. We'll tell you clearly and your payment is reviewed/refunded per the Refund Policy.
