How it works

Pura Vida Negocios is the public ranking where Costa Rican businesses compete to be seen: each business pays for its position in colones and the one that has invested the most appears first. It is not a bet — every payment buys advertising exposure, with no chance or prizes involved.

First place costs at least ₡1.000 more than the current leader's amount. The exact figure is shown live on the home page.

Go to the listing page, choose how your business identifies itself (WhatsApp, Instagram or a website), complete your profile, pay for your position (from ₡3.000) via SINPE Móvil and send the receipt by WhatsApp. Your position activates once the payment is confirmed. No account is needed.

Payments are final once a position is activated and exposure has started. Refunds apply only for a duplicate payment, an error attributable to the platform, a service that cannot be activated, or a profile rejected before publication. Refunds go to the same SINPE number on the receipt, per our Terms and Conditions.

Every visit and click is recorded with filters against automated or repeated traffic. The numbers you see have a real event behind them — they are never sold or inflated.

Any business that genuinely operates in Costa Rica with a verifiable channel (WhatsApp Business, Instagram, Facebook, a website or Google Maps), except restricted activities such as gambling, adult content, weapons or pyramid schemes.
