# Boosting

A boost is a paid pack that moves a promoted token up the promoted page for 12 or 24 hours. It also adds a ⚡ badge and a place in the Boosted tab of search. A boost is advertising. It does not verify a token, and it does not change any other board.

## What does a boost cost?

| Pack | Price | Lasts |
|---|---|---|
| ⚡10 | 0.1 SOL | 12 hours |
| ⚡50 | 0.4 SOL | 24 hours |
| ⚡100 | 0.7 SOL | 24 hours |

These are today's prices. Prices can change. The price you pay is the one shown in the boost window before you sign, and the time starts when your payment confirms.

## Which tokens can be boosted?

Only a token whose [promoted listing](/promoted-tokens) is live. Any signed-in member can boost it — you do not have to own the listing.

## Do packs add up?

Yes. Packs that are active at the same time add together. The promoted page orders its **Today** tab by active boost units first, then by today's votes.

## What does a boost not do?

- It does not change Trending, Hot, New, Gainers, Bonding or Migrated. Those boards never read boosts.
- It does not change a token's price, volume or any figure we measure.
- It is not an endorsement, and it says nothing about whether a token can be trusted.

## How do I pay for a boost?

1. Sign in, and connect the wallet you will pay from.
2. Press **⚡ Boost** on the token page or on the token's row on the promoted page, and choose a pack.
3. Our server builds a SOL transfer to the dex-tokens.io treasury. Check the amount, then sign it in your wallet.
4. Once the payment confirms on Solana, the boost starts.

We never hold your keys and never sign for you.

## Can I get a refund on a boost?

Boosts are not refundable. One exception: if your payment arrives after the token's listing was removed, the boost cannot show, and you are refunded by hand. A boost that stops because the listing is removed while it is active is not refunded. See the [Refund Policy](/refund-policy) and [Terms & Conditions](/terms-conditions) section 2.1.
