What happens if my launch doesn't get 10 upvotes?

On Uneed, the 10-upvote rule only applies to free launches (products that went through the free waiting line).

Free launch

Your product needs an upvote score of at least 10 on launch day to stay published. It's a score, not 10 separate people — some users have an upvote multiplier. If your free launch ends below 10, it goes back to the waiting line and its backlink becomes nofollow.

Paid launches

Any paid launch — Fast-track ($14.99), Skip the Waiting Line ($29.99), or Relaunch ($15): your listing stays published permanently and keeps its do-follow backlink for life, no matter how many upvotes you get. There is no vote threshold on paid launches.

So if you've paid for any launch option, you never need to worry about the 10-upvote rule.
