Frequently Asked Questions

What is oneinchonedream.com?

It's a digital canvas of 1,000,000 square inches. Each inch costs $1. You claim your spot and place your name, logo, image, or link — becoming a part of the canvas for as long as the platform runs. It's inspired by the Million Dollar Homepage (2005) — a social experiment that asks: can strangers from around the world come together around one honest dream?

Is this a donation or a purchase?

It's a purchase. You are buying a digital display block — advertising space on the canvas. This is not a donation, not crowdfunding, and not an investment. You get a real product: your image or text displayed on the canvas, visible to everyone who visits the site.

Who is behind this project?

One person — Andrew. Not a company, not a startup, not an algorithm. A real human being with a story, a wife, a dog, a rented apartment, and a dream of a home with a garden.

How much does it cost?

$1 per square inch. The price depends on the total area of your block — not the shape. A 5×5 block and a 25×1 block both cost $25. Total price = width × height × $1.

What payment methods are accepted?

We accept: card payments (Visa, Mastercard, Apple Pay, Google Pay) via monobank; PayPal; and cryptocurrency (BTC, ETH, USDT/USDC) via NOWPayments. Note: crypto payments are not covered by the Refund Policy.

Are there any recurring fees?

No. This is a one-time payment. No monthly fees, no renewals, no expiration. You pay once — your block stays on the canvas for the operational lifetime of the platform.

Is payment secure?

Yes. Card payments are processed securely by monobank (Plata by Mono), a licensed Ukrainian payment institution regulated by the National Bank of Ukraine and PCI-DSS compliant. We never store your full card details — they are handled exclusively by the payment provider.

Why does my crypto payment say "less than minimal"?

Each cryptocurrency has a minimum payment amount set by its network to cover blockchain fees. For many coins this minimum is higher than a few dollars, so crypto is available for blocks <strong>from $10</strong>. For smaller amounts, pick a low-fee coin — <strong>USDT (TRC-20)</strong>, <strong>BNB</strong>, or <strong>Litecoin (LTC)</strong>. For a single $1 inch, card or PayPal is easiest (no minimums there).

What can I display — and what size do I need?

There are 5 tiers depending on total area: Leave your mark (1–9 sq in, $1–$9): name or emoji only. Show your logo (10–49 sq in, $10–$49): tiny image + link, visible at max zoom. Make your presence (50–249 sq in, $50–$249): low quality image + link, visible at 3× zoom. Own your space (250–749 sq in, $250–$749): medium quality image + link, visible at 2× zoom. Be unforgettable (750+ sq in, from $750): high quality image + link, visible without zoom.

Can I choose any shape?

Yes. The presets on the canvas are just examples of popular sizes. You can set any width and height using the custom size fields. 10×5, 20×2, 4×25 — all valid. The total price is always width × height × $1. Only the total area determines the image quality tier.

Can I add a link to my block?

Yes. Add your website URL during checkout. When visitors click your block on the canvas, they'll be taken to your site. Real advertising — not just a display.

Can I upload my logo or image?

Yes, for blocks of 10+ square inches. Supported formats: PNG, JPG. Your image is scaled to fill your block.

What size and shape should my image be?

Upload your image in the same proportions (aspect ratio) as your block. A 50×20 block needs a wide image in 50:20 ratio (for example 1000×400px); a 10×10 block needs a square image. If the image ratio does not match the block, it is cropped to fill the block — the center is kept and the edges are trimmed. The purchase form shows the recommended pixel size for the exact block you selected.

How do I claim a spot?

Pick a preset size or enter a custom width and height. Move your cursor over the canvas — a magnifier shows you exactly where you're placing your block. Click to select your spot. Then click Claim your inch and complete payment by card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, or crypto.

When will my block appear on the canvas?

Your block is reserved immediately after you fill out the form. It appears on the canvas after payment is confirmed — usually within minutes for card/PayPal payments, and within 24 hours for crypto.

How long will my block stay on the canvas?

Your block is displayed for the operational lifetime of the platform. There are no expiration dates and no recurring fees. One payment — your block stays as long as the site runs.

What if the site closes one day?

Like any website, oneinchonedream.com may not run forever. If the platform ever closes, we will give at least 30 days notice and provide a downloadable archive of the full canvas so you can preserve your spot. This is covered in our Terms of Service.

Is my spot guaranteed?

Yes. Once your payment is confirmed, your coordinates on the canvas are locked. No one else can claim your spot.

Can I get a refund?

Digital products delivered immediately are generally non-refundable. However, if there is a technical error on our side (double charge, wrong block placed, etc.), we will resolve it promptly. See our full Refund Policy for details.

Can I change my image or name after purchase?

Currently, blocks cannot be edited after purchase. We are considering adding an edit feature in the future. If you need urgent changes, contact us at oneinchonedream@gmail.com.

Can I buy multiple blocks?

Yes. You can buy as many blocks as you want — different sizes, different locations on the canvas. Each purchase is a separate transaction.

Is this real advertising?

Yes. Your logo + link is displayed on the canvas for the lifetime of the platform with no monthly fees. As the canvas fills up, more people visit the site — meaning more eyeballs on your brand. Think of it as a one-time ad buy that grows in value as the project grows.

What size should I choose for my logo?

It depends on how visible you want your logo to be: Visible without zoom (Be unforgettable): 750+ sq in, from $750, example 30×25 or 50×20. Visible at 2× zoom (Own your space): 250–749 sq in, $250–$749, example 16×16 ($256) or 25×25 ($625). Visible at 3× zoom (Make your presence): 50–249 sq in, $50–$249, example 10×10 ($100). Shape is up to you. For best results, upload a PNG with transparent background in the same ratio as your block.

Can I buy a block as a gift?

Yes! During checkout, enter the recipient's name and website. Then share the order confirmation with them.
