The rules

One More Minute is a public internet experiment. Verified payments add the purchased amount of time to the live clock. If the clock reaches zero, the experiment ends and new payments close.

Airtime and queue

Every verified keeper receives spotlight airtime equal to the purchased duration. Airtime runs in payment order on a separate, consecutive queue and cannot be paused or rescheduled. Eligible links are marked as sponsored and do not guarantee visits, sales, search ranking or any audience size.

Payments

Time is added only after our payment provider verifies a successful payment. Because the digital effect and airtime are delivered automatically, completed contributions are normally non-refundable except where required by law or where we made a technical error.

Names, links and messages

Keepers may publish a short name, message and, on eligible tiers, a public website link. Do not impersonate others or submit illegal, hateful, sexually explicit, threatening, deceptive, malicious or private information. We may hide content or links that break these rules without removing correctly purchased clock time.

No prize or ownership

Keeping the site alive does not purchase equity, an investment, a prize or ownership of the website. It purchases only the stated addition of time, queued airtime and an eligible public ledger entry.
