About

Playlist Headline is a public auction last 7 days for the first track / opening song on a real playlist or live radio. Artists, labels, and promoters bid whole US dollars so listeners hear their song first.

Rank is the bid. Nothing else. Paying less than #1 still lists at the rank that bid can take. Equal bids: the older listing keeps the higher rank.

Playback is real. Every listing points to a secure destination controlled by the artist or rights holder and plays through an official destination or supported player. There are no fake streams and no generated audio.

There are no invented play counts. We do not scrape or display Spotify monthly listeners, YouTube views, SoundCloud plays, or any other platform stat. Public clicks on our listen hop are the only counter. Clicks are not plays.

The board is in English, bids use USD, and artists and listeners can participate from anywhere.

Anyone can read the board without an account. A track appears only after payment is confirmed. A canceled or abandoned checkout never creates an opening track.

Read the rules for the $5 minimum, older-wins ties, raise-pays-difference, the seven-day placement window, and banned chat / NSFW URLs.
