What the free route requires

Free listing requires the DailyPings badge on your homepage — 'the listing appears the moment their check passes', so the badge must be live BEFORE submitting.
Badge is checked daily; removing it unfeatures/delists the free listing ('remove it, you're unfeatured').
Free tier's dofollow backlink lasts only while the badge stays up.

A live product URL — they read your site and pre-fill name, tagline, and thumbnail.
An account: email/password plus GitHub, Google, or X provider buttons (icons are unlabelled under an 'or' divider).
No content bar is published — the free tier's only stated condition is the badge.

Live product URL (auto-scraped for name/tagline/thumbnail — review the pre-fill).
Badge embed on your homepage ready before submitting on free.
Account (GitHub/Google/X or email+password).
Plan choice: Free with badge vs Premium one-time (~$9–$19 reported; verify on /pricing) — Premium is no-badge, lifetime dofollow, 7 days in 'Newly launched', newsletter mention, full page with FAQ.

Sign in at dailypings.com/sign-in (email/password or the unlabelled GitHub/Google/X icons).
Paste your product URL — the site pre-fills name, tagline, thumbnail; edit before publishing.
Choose Free (badge) or Premium (one-time payment).
Free: with the badge already on your homepage, the listing publishes as soon as their checker detects it.
Premium: publishes on the spot, no badge needed.

Badge must be installed BEFORE submission on the free lane — the listing is gated on detection.
Daily badge re-check: removing the badge unfeatures the listing; free dofollow survives only while the badge does.
OAuth providers render as unlabelled icons — easy to miss that GitHub/Google/X sign-in exists.
Reported Premium price varies between sources ($9 vs $19) — confirm on /pricing.
'No refunds once published' policy per their terms (per third-party).
Direct fetch of the site returned 403 (bot protection) — details largely verified via their indexed pages and third-party reviews.

A permanent product page on dailypings.com/p/<slug> plus appearance in 'Newly launched' (24h free / 7 days Premium).

Exact Premium price on the current /pricing page ($9 vs $19 conflict across sources).
Whether the site 403 was bot protection or regional blocking.
Sponsorship pricing details ($19.67/wk site slots, $49 newsletter — per third-party).
