Overview
YourMapSeat is a public marketplace for geographic attention. Explore the map for free and check Countries, Regions, availability, price, and activity.
The map is a discovery layer. A Region is the unit that can be occupied through a Sponsor listing.
Countries and Regions
Countries show aggregate market context, such as Region count and occupancy. Countries are not purchasable units.
A Region represents an ADM1 geographic unit. Each Region can have one active Sponsor at a time. When occupied, the next price appears before a new reservation.
Price and quote
Values are shown in US dollars. An open Region starts at US$1.00. For an occupied Region, the next quote is the current price plus US$1.00.
The quote is read when you reserve, tied to the market revision, and shown again at checkout. If the Region changes before confirmation, the quote may expire and need an update.
How to reserve a Region
To start a reservation, provide the brand display name, canonical website, and optional tagline and logo. The site must be a valid URL and may not hide its destination through tracking parameters or improper redirects.
A reservation is confirmed only after payment processing, quote validation, and availability reconciliation.
Destinations and representation
Submit only a site you own or are authorized to represent. The destination may be normalized to remove query parameters, fragments, and trackers.
Do not submit group, invite, or messaging links such as Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord, or similar services. The listing must lead to a product, project, company, or profile you can represent.
Content standards
We do not allow illegal, fraudulent, deceptive, defamatory, hateful, violent, adult, or child-exploitative content. We also prohibit malware, phishing, scams, impersonation, infringement of third-party rights, or offers requiring a license you do not hold.
Do not use the marketplace to manipulate clicks, bypass limits, automate reservations without authorization, scrape beyond ordinary navigation, or interfere with the service.
Review and moderation
We may review, delay, edit, recategorize, hide, or remove a listing when it violates these Rules, the Terms, law, or creates security, fraud, or reputation risk.
Removal may happen without notice when needed to protect people, rights, the marketplace, or payment integrity.
After payment
Payment does not guarantee traffic, clicks, customers, revenue, permanent placement, or any commercial result. Another reservation may change a Region's position under these Rules.
If payment is confirmed but the reservation cannot be completed because of a stale quote, expiry, payment failure, or unavailability, the system may cancel, release, or refund the transaction based on payment state, the Terms, and applicable law.
