Brand on my back

Counting real visits

Your brand, on a bag that
actually moves.

Ten patch spots on the backpack I live out of. Not a laptop parked on a desk. A 40 litre pack that crosses borders, and sends back dated photos of where it went.

0 € committed by sponsors of a 1 000 € goal

Opening date to be announced.

Drag to turn the bag. Tap a spot to bid.

The ten spots

One large panel, four medium, five small. Every spot opens at a floor price and rises by 10 € steps.

How it works

  1. 01

    Bid on a spot

    Confirm your email, pick a spot, name your price. Your card is saved and nothing is charged. Get outbid and you pay nothing at all.

  2. 02

    Win it at close

    When the clock runs out, the top bid on each spot is charged once. Your patch gets cut, checked by hand and stitched on.

  3. 03

    Keep it monthly

    The spot is then yours for a monthly rent. Stop paying and it goes back to auction. Nobody sits on a spot for free.

What the rent actually buys

A sticker on a desk decays into wallpaper. This is the opposite deal. Every month your spot is live, you get proof that the bag went somewhere.

The archive fills up once the bag starts moving with patches on it. Nothing here is a stock photo.

Questions

What do I get for the money?

A patch of your logo on the bag, a spot on this page with a link to your site, and dated photo proof each month the spot is yours.

Why an auction and then a rent?

The auction settles who gets which spot, once. The rent is what keeps it. It also keeps me honest, because a spot only stays sold if the proof keeps coming.

Am I charged when I bid?

No. Your card is saved and only the winning bid is charged when the auction closes. Losing bidders are never charged and there is nothing to refund.

Can any brand join?

No. Every logo is checked by hand before it appears anywhere. Adult, gambling, counterfeit, hate and scam categories are refused outright, and I keep the final call.

What if I stop paying?

The patch comes off and the spot goes back to auction at its floor price. You can cancel any month.

Are those visitor numbers real?

Yes. They are counted first-party on this server, live sessions in the last minute and unique visitors since launch. No number on this page is decorative.
