Put your proof to work on your own site
The core exchange is free. An active paid plan protects your listing from inactivity-related delisting while the subscription remains active and gives you a badge-free wall of proof on your own site, with higher display limits (up to 50 proofs per embed).

What you're actually buying
Not more projects — most people here have one or two. Three assets that keep working after you stop.
Your wall of proof, white-labelled
Embed your wall on your own site with no ProofSwap badge.

Free widgets show up to 5 testimonials in one layout. Starter raises the limit to 25; Pro and Business can show up to 50 in one embed and unlock more layouts.

Your project keeps its public page and wall of proof while your paid plan is active. Free listings decay and get delisted when you go quiet — paid listings stay live whether you keep exchanging or not.
Paid plans also skip the give-first gate — your listing goes live the moment you create it.

Common questions
What are manual proofs?
Add existing tweet links or written quotes to your wall, or invite customers to submit a written testimonial for your approval. Your wall and widget show these as owner-added or customer-collected proof, separately from verified exchanges. Free projects can add up to three; paid limits vary by plan.
I only have one or two products — is paid worth it?
An active paid subscription protects your public project page and wall of proof from inactivity-related delisting while the subscription remains active. Paid also includes a badge-free wall embedded on your own site, with 25 testimonials on Starter or up to 50 on Pro and Business. Skipping the give-first gate is the convenience on top.
What are project credits?
Your first project is free. Each additional project needs 1 credit and an open slot. Free members have 1 slot initially, 2 after giving 1 proof, and 3 after giving 3 proofs. Verified proof you give earns credits; paid plans also add monthly credits. Receiving proof never costs credits.
Why is my project pending?
Free tier projects need activation. Give proof to at least 1 project to make your listing visible in the directory. This ensures everyone on ProofSwap actively contributes. Paid plans skip this step — your project goes live immediately.
How do I earn a dofollow backlink?
Your activated listing has a public project page that links to your site. The link is dofollow once you have given proof to at least one other founder; payment never grants it. Search engines decide whether to crawl, index, or use a page or link in rankings. Participation does not guarantee indexing, ranking benefits, or a permanent backlink.
All plans include the full exchange engine and an embeddable testimonial widget. Active paid plans protect listings from inactivity, remove the widget badge, raise the embed display limit — and offer instant activation. Giving proof earns dofollow eligibility; payment does not.
