One title. One honoured guest.
A permanent place in internet history.
Offer a greater tribute.
To succeed the reigning Richest Visitor, your tribute must be at least 10% greater than theirs, rounded up to the dollar — or as much more as you like; a greater tribute hangs in a larger frame on the Hall of Fame wall. The very first Richest Visitor will pay at least $100. The minimum of the day is always shown on the homepage.
Your portrait is unveiled.
Present a portrait, a proclamation in any language, or both. Be known by your full name, your initials, or not at all — and fly your flag if you wish. Every portrait is checked by hand before it goes live, which can take up to 24 hours; we email you the moment it is live.
Your reign is protected for 24 hours.
No one may unseat you for at least 24 hours, counted from the moment your portrait goes live, so the time spent checking it is never taken from you. Others may secure the succession in the meantime — the title passes to them only when your 24 hours are complete. The succession may be settled up to 14 days ahead, each reign at least 10% greater than the last.
Then you reign, for at least a year.
A reign has no end date. After 24 hours, only a greater tribute can take the title. Should that day come, you will be the first to know — with the tribute required to reclaim it. If no one offers more for a full year, the minimum starts to fall by 10% a month (never below $100) until someone takes the title; you keep your place in the Hall of Fame.

$110で最も裕福な訪問者にThe important points
- Refunded if we say no.
- If we do not approve your portrait, or remove it later, your tribute is refunded in full. Otherwise tributes are final — including when someone offers more, or if the site closes.
- An honour, not an audit.
- The title honours the greatest tribute offered so far. It makes no claim about anyone’s wealth, identity or character.
- A title, not an investment.
- The title cannot be resold or transferred, and nothing is ever paid out.
- Replaced, never removed.
- When someone takes your place, your portrait moves to the Hall of Fame wall and stays there, with a permanent page of its own.
- Worthy of the frame.
- Every portrait is reviewed by a person. No nudity, hate, harassment, illegal content, minors, impersonation or deceptive links. A portrait may be removed at any time; if it is, the tribute is refunded in full.
- Half the profits go to people in need.
- Given directly and personally by the founder, not through any trust or NGO, and without photographs. Profit means what remains after payment fees, hosting, taxes and refunds.
- Tribute by card, PayPal or UPI.
- Card and PayPal are confirmed at once, in US dollars. UPI tributes (Paytm, Google Pay, PhonePe, BHIM) are verified by hand, within 24 hours.

The story
RichestVisitor.com honours one person at a time: the Richest Visitor — the guest who has offered a greater tribute than anyone before them. To succeed them, the next guest must offer at least 10% more — or as much more as they like. The very first Richest Visitor will pay at least $100. the tribute only ever rises. There are no seasons and no end date. Each monarch reigns until a greater tribute is offered, and every reign is honoured forever in the Hall of Fame.
The title honours the tribute — nothing more is claimed, and nothing less is deserved.
