The honest part

Nobody can sell you time. What you buy is a permanent, public, uniquely assigned entry in our registry — not ownership of the moment itself. Details in our Terms.

  • One minute, one owner. Guaranteed by the registry, not by promise.
  • Payments processed by Stripe. We never see your card.
  • A 30-minute reservation while you prepare the record.
  • Edit the content later — every change is logged.
Founding companies cohort

A limited number of milestone minutes, by invitation, for the first companies on the record. Write to us and we will set it up together. hello@buythetime.co

Questions
Who owns the record?
Whoever pays for it. Create an account with your company email and the minute stays editable from that account, with a full change history.
Can we change the text or photo later?
Yes. The owner can edit the title, message, link and media at any time. Every change is recorded in an audit history.
Do we get an invoice?
Payment is processed by Stripe and you receive a receipt by email. If you need an invoice with your company details, write to hello@buythetime.co and we will issue one.
Is this an advertising product?
No. It is a permanent, public entry in a registry of minutes — a keepsake with your company name on a date, not an ad placement. Nobody can sell you time itself; our terms say so plainly.
