# StickK is a habit contract. This is a ship date.

> StickK puts money on gym, smoking, and referee-watched goals. ShipOrDie.lol puts $25–$2000 on a public product ship date with live URL proof. Miss it and the stake funds makers who shipped.

StickK invented the modern commitment contract. You define a goal, put money on it, and a referee or anti-charity makes quitting expensive. That is the right machine for habits. It is the wrong machine for a product that has to load on the public internet.

StickK is for personal goals you can self-report or hand to a friend. ShipOrDie.lol is a weekly shipping league: one live https product, one UTC deadline, a stake large enough to hurt.

## Pick ShipOrDie.lol

Use this board when the deliverable is a URL. You pay $25–$2000 up front. After a short cool-off your name sits on the book. We fetch the page. Parked, empty, and localhost do not count. Hit it: most of the money back plus a badge and a slice of the week's prize pool. Miss it: the full stake pays people who actually shipped.

## Pick StickK

Use StickK when the goal is gym, writing pages, or quitting a habit, and you want a referee or an anti-charity — not a public maker board, not a prize pool, not a live-site probe.

## FAQ

### Is ShipOrDie a StickK alternative?

For shipping software, yes. For gym, diet, or quit-smoking contracts, no. StickK is the general commitment-contract product. This board only takes 2–21 days product stakes with a live URL.

### Can I use StickK to force myself to ship an app?

You can write that goal on StickK. Nobody fetches your site. Nobody puts your countdown on a maker board. Nobody splits missed stakes among people who shipped. If the point is a public date and a real product, use this book.

### Where does the money go if I miss on StickK vs here?

On StickK, forfeits usually go to charity, an anti-charity, or a recipient you chose. On ShipOrDie.lol the full missed stake enters that UTC week's prize pool and is split among uncontested on-time shippers. We are not a gambling operator; a dare is an invite, not a bet.

### Does StickK take a cut of a ship-date stake?

StickK's fees are StickK's. Here you pay the stake up front through Stripe Checkout (cards, USD). Ship on time and the remainder comes back minus the platform fee. Nothing is public until Stripe confirms payment.
