What you actually get
A product page under /product/ carrying your tagline, both descriptions, a category, tags and a Visit link. Their automated safety scan decided ours in about twenty seconds and the page was live in Explore Products the same day; the launch week you reserve is when it joins that week ranked lineup, not when the page appears. The Visit link ships unfollowed and turns followed once their crawler verifies the badge, after which they recheck it daily and revert the listing the day it disappears.

Gotchas
The badge snippet changes after approval, and only the new one passes. The success screen gives you a /badge/<token> link before review; once approved they reissue it against /product/<slug>.
Verification is not instant after you publish. Two rechecks minutes apart still answered "Badge markup was not found"; a later one passed with nothing else changed, so give it time rather than editing the badge again.
The launch weeks are a queue, not a date. Everything through Sep 21 read "Submissions closed" when we booked; the earliest open week was six weeks out.
The dofollow is rented and rechecked daily. Remove the badge, or add nofollow to it, and the listing goes back to an unfollowed link.
