Real tattoo, advertising purchase, refunds, chargebacks, PayPal capture, and the $30,000 unlock.
What is Tattoo My Ass?
Tattoo My Ass sells homepage advertising. #1 sits at the top of the site with logo, name, and a tracked link. We count clicks to your website. Rank is verified USD. The #1 advertiser can also win a real 15 × 15 cm tattoo if the $30,000 reserve is hit. It is not a lottery and not a bet.
Is Tattoo My Ass real?
Yes. This is a real advertising campaign with a public leaderboard, verified payments, written rules, and a winner page prepared for appointment photos and tattoo proof. Rankings only count captured or admin-verified USD. Fake or pending money never moves the board.
Is Tattoo My Ass a scam?
No. You are buying the top of this website when you hold #1: logo, name, and a click-counted link on every visit. Lower ranks still get a public listing. The tattoo is extra for #1 only when the reserve and approvals are met. Losing does not mean you bought nothing.
Are you actually getting the tattoo?
If verified #1 spend reaches the $30,000 reserve, the winning payment clears review, and the design is approved by the owner and a professional tattoo artist — yes. Maximum size is 15 × 15 cm. If the reserve is missed, no tattoo is required and advertising still stands.
How much does it cost to enter?
The minimum advertising contribution is $1 USD. There is no monthly plan. Payments stack on the same brand listing. To take #1 you must beat the current leader by at least another $1. Large $10k+ advertisers can inquire about invoice or bank transfer.
How big can the tattoo be?
Maximum 15 cm × 15 cm. Smaller designs are fine. The placement sits inside the designated butt tattoo square. Exact position inside that square is decided with the owner and the tattoo artist. Designs cannot exceed that area.
Where will the tattoo be?
On the butt, inside the marked 15 × 15 cm tattoo area shown on the site illustration. Exact placement within that square is agreed with the owner and the artist. The public site uses a tasteful illustration, not an explicit photo.
Do I get my money back if I lose?
No — not because you lost. You bought advertising exposure, not a refundable auction bid. Once your payment is verified and your listing can appear, contributions are generally final. Your name, logo, link, and tagline stay on the campaign and archive. The tattoo prize is only for #1 when the reserve conditions are met. See the Refund Policy for chargebacks and rare exceptions.
What happens if the campaign doesn't reach $30,000?
The advertising campaign still happened. Listings stay visible. The Tattoo Prize is not activated and no tattoo is required. Contributions are not automatically refunded just because the reserve was missed. Check the refund and tattoo-prize legal pages for edge cases.
Can I contribute multiple times?
Yes. Every verified payment is added to your total. Rank is the sum of eligible captured payments, not your last payment alone. You can top up from the same advertiser account as often as you want while contributions are open.
How do payments work?
Primary checkout is PayPal. The leaderboard updates only after server-side capture succeeds. A browser return page alone never moves the board. Invoice or bank transfer is available for larger advertisers and stays pending until an administrator verifies the funds.
Can I submit anything as the tattoo?
No. Designs go through acceptable-content rules and final approval by the owner and the artist. Paying does not force a tattoo of refused content. Hate, illegal, or clearly harmful designs can be rejected even if you paid for advertising.
Can a competitor outbid me?
Yes. That is the point. Whoever holds the highest verified USD total at close wins. Anti-snipe rules can extend the campaign if #1 changes in the final minutes, so last-second snipes do not instantly lock the result.
What if someone chargebacks after winning?
Invalid, disputed, or charged-back funds do not count. The leaderboard is recalculated. Nothing is tattooed until the winning payment is sufficiently verified. The next eligible advertiser may become the winner under the campaign rules.
What do I actually get if I'm not #1?
Paid advertising: leaderboard placement, brand name, approved logo, website link, tagline, campaign exposure while live, and a permanent archive listing after close. You do not get a guaranteed tattoo and you do not get an automatic refund for being outspent.
