How Payments Work on TopBump

Every payment on TopBump โ€” bids, banner ads, category and subcategory creation fees โ€” is processed through Polar, a dedicated payment platform for internet businesses. TopBump never handles or stores your card details directly.

What happens when you pay

You're taken to a secure, hosted checkout page. Once payment is confirmed, Polar notifies TopBump via a webhook, and your listing, ad, or category is activated automatically in that same instant โ€” that's why activation feels instant rather than "pending review."

Receipts

Every payment generates a standard receipt through Polar, sent to the email you check out with.
