How it works
Open. Bid. Win.
One auction, two sides. You set the rules, sponsors compete for your top spot, and Stripe moves the money.
-
Open your top spot
Sign in with X, turn on sponsor spots and set your price per day. Turn on bidding and your top spot goes to auction.
-
Sponsors bid
A sponsor finds you in the market or on your sponsor page, bids and saves a card. A bid in the last 10 minutes resets the clock to 10 minutes.
-
The winner goes live
When the clock runs out, Stripe charges the winner and pays your bank. The winner holds your top spot for the days you set.
Want a fixed price? Sponsors also book open slots by the day. You approve every booking or turn on auto-approve. A rejected or canceled booking is refunded.
Three steps
Lights on in three steps.
-
Sign in with X
You give headerX one job: your header image. It never posts, likes or follows for you.
-
Pick a design
Start from one of 150. Change the words, the numbers, the colors and every layer.
-
Pick how often
From every 30 minutes to every 24 hours. Free updates every 24 hours, Pro as often as every 4 hours, Max as often as every 30 minutes. No change, no upload.
Free to start. No card needed.
Payments
Paid through Stripe.
Every payment runs on Stripe. Sponsors pay only for what they win. Creators get paid to their bank through Stripe Connect.
-
When you bid
You save a card with your bid. Only the winner is charged, when the auction closes. A booking is paid when you book and refunded if the creator rejects or cancels it.
-
When you sell
Stripe pays your bank. headerX keeps the sponsor fee of your plan: 15% on Free, 10% on Pro, 5% on Max, at least $2 a sale.
