€10
Outbid for €11 · #1 is RevenueTrack
Last updated · Content reviewed
macapps.lol is a lifetime-spend leaderboard exclusively for macOS software. Submit a Mac App Store URL, a .dmg, or a download link tagged platform=macos, and your lifetime euro total sets your rank. iPhone and generic websites are rejected outright. Four apps are on the board, with RevenueTrack holding #1 at €10 and 49 to 60 clicks spread across the other three rows. Our last scan measured a $0.25 median CPC across all four listings.
Our take
The macOS-only filter is the whole product here, and the rules page backs it up: only real Mac App Store or .dmg links are accepted, with no ASO tricks. Four listings is a small board, but click counts stay close together (49 to 60) regardless of price, so a €1 listing gets nearly as much attention as the €10 leader. Checkout runs through Stripe with no featured slot beyond #1. Good for a euro-priced test if your app is genuinely macOS-only.
