Twelve advertising positions on one page, ranked by what each brand has paid in total. Entry is $10,000.

No. There is no bidding, no reserve and no closing time. It is a standing ranking: every brand's total is public, positions are sorted by it, and anybody can add to their total at any moment. Nothing is decided in a window.

By your total contribution, and nothing else. All twelve positions are ordered by total alone, the Throne included, so a single dollar more than the brand above you is enough to pass it. Where two totals are equal, whoever paid first ranks higher.

For as long as your total stays inside the top twelve. There is no term, no renewal and no expiry date — and no guarantee either. Your position can fall, and you can leave the board entirely, whenever other brands pay more. The counter beside your name shows how many days you have held where you are.

$10,000 to join the board. Below that is not accepted. Once you are on it, you can add any amount to your total at any time.

You move down one position and we write to you the same day, naming your new position and what it would take to hold the throne. If you were the lowest total on a full board, you move to the Fallen list below it — your total is kept exactly as it stands, and adding to it puts you back the moment it passes the lowest total on the board.

No. Every confirmed payment stays in your total for good. Nothing is reset when a month turns, when you are passed, or when you fall off the board.

The right to display your logo and brand name — and a short message and one outbound link, if you give them — in a ranked position on gulfthrone.com, for as long as your total keeps you inside the top twelve.

By bank transfer. After you submit the form we email you a proforma invoice with our bank details. No card details are entered on this site, and no amount affects the board until the transfer has reached our account and been confirmed.

Before you are published, in three cases. One: we decline to publish your placement, or it is not published for any reason other than your own withdrawal. Two: you withdraw in writing and we have that more than 48 hours before the moment we gave you for going live. Three: we never put a go-live moment to you in writing at all, in which case the window never started and a withdrawal is refunded in full however late it arrives. Inside those final 48 hours there is no refund. Once your placement is on the board nothing is refundable — including if your position falls, if you leave the board, or if we remove the placement under the content standards. A refund that falls due is paid to the account the payment came from within 10 business days of our decision, or of your notice.

No, and this is the one thing to be sure of before paying. What is sold is a standing calculated from confirmed totals, recalculated whenever anyone pays. Recalculating it is the service working as described, not a failure to provide it. Your total is not reduced and not returned; it stays yours and it stays published.

Yes — up to 3 times per calendar month at no charge. Email us the new material and we will update your placement. Beyond that, further changes are at our discretion.

We decline placements for adult content, gambling, unlicensed financial services, counterfeit goods, and anything unlawful in the UAE, Saudi Arabia or Türkiye. We may reject, suspend or remove non-compliant content at any time and without prior notice. If we reject it before your placement is published, the full amount we received is returned; if we suspend or remove it afterwards, no refund is due.
