Boosted turns digital support into real-world recognition. $1 = 10 seconds of real screen time on LED billboards and digital screens — not a metaphor, an actual display in the physical world. Discover artists, brands, and causes you care about and back them with a Boost. Every boost adds real seconds to their screen time, moves them up the Boosted Board leaderboard, and earns you Fan Status — Day One, Top Booster, Inner Circle, and more — as a Certified Real Fan. Follow campaigns like My Jamaica Boosted, track your own Boosting and Boosters, and share your Fan Status card to show the world who you back and how far you've helped take them. Boosted is fan-powered: no bots, no manufactured hype — just real people spending real money to put the people, brands, and causes they love onto real screens in the real world.
