Free listing or paid launch?
Understand what each option offers and choose the timing that suits you.
Updated
A free listing gets your profile on Velzio Launch, visible after 6-8 weeks in our free queue. Your founder story, milestones, screenshots, demo video and comparisons remain locked until upgrade. We do require our badge on your website before publication. For a free listing the founder profile must be complete too. The link to your site is nofollow.
A paid launch at $5 goes live immediately, or on the week you choose. Your full profile unlocks. You receive a dofollow link, which search engines index. No badge is required.
Build on what you choose
Either option can grow. From /account/listings, you can upgrade a free listing to paid at any time. Once you launch, add-ons extend your visibility: move to featured placement at $19, add extra categories, or combine offers in bundles. A free listing that does not want to wait in the free queue can upgrade to a full launch for $5: the listing becomes a paid launch. Paid launches choose their week free of charge.
The community decides order
Community votes decide the community ranking, and money never changes it. A paid launch simply removes the queue wait and unlocks your full story for visitors to discover.
