Premium is now available through lava.top! 🎉

8 August 2026

We've listened to your feedback and added another way to get Premium as well as buyer/seller verification on bidonmy.art! 🥳

After talking with lava.top, we've set up a new checkout option so users in countries where Stripe is unavailable can still access Premium and verification features on bidonmy.art.

There are now two checkout options for these features: Stripe and lava.top

Because of sanctions affecting users in Russia, the lava.top version of Premium works a little differently. Instead of the 15% visibility boost, lava.top Premium includes 10 decorative frame uses per month.

These frames use the same visual style as boosted posts, but they do not add a visibility boost and they do not show the Boosted label.
Users who have access to both Stripe and lava.top can choose whichever option works best for them. Premium types do not stack.

image comparing the boosted artwork with the decorative frame, boosted artwork has a boosted label and a visibility boost in the algorithm, decorative frame looks the same but without those two distinctions

Verification works the same! You just need to pick 'Pay with lava.top' when submitting your verification form!

We hope this makes bidonmy.art a little more accessible for our Russian friends, and for everyone else affected by Stripe or payment processor restrictions. 💙
There is also two links at the bottom of the site: 'Support the site' and 'Поддержать сайт'. This leads to a ko-fi or lava.top tip jar respectively, for users who would like to support bidonmy.art directly.

Thank you all for helping this little community grow! ✨

Please keep enjoying the site, sending feedback, and suggesting useful features.
And as always - Happy Bidding! 🎉
