A boost is a direct show of support — a small contribution made toward an artist, creator, business, or event a user wants to see succeed. Every boost counts toward that entity's public standing on the Boosted Board.
The Board is Boosted's real-time leaderboard, but it isn't a simple "who spent the most" list. Boosted uses a weighted ranking system designed to reward genuine, broad-based support — a wide base of real fans consistently showing up carries more weight than a single large contribution from one person. The exact formula isn't published, in the same way most reputation and ranking systems keep their methodology private, but the goal is straightforward: reward real fan engagement, not just spending power.
Top supporters earn visible status — appearing as a verified "Top Fan," unlocking founding-member and milestone badges, and in select live event partnerships, real-world recognition through screen time on physical displays.
Artists, creators, businesses, and event organizers get more than visibility — through the Boosted EARN program, they can earn a direct share of the boost revenue their own audience generates.
