THE IDEA BEHIND THE BAD DECISION
What happens when the internet commits to a bit?
Murphy’s Million is testing whether a deliberately unnecessary $1 idea can fill one million numbered places. Every verified contribution adds another permanent Murphy Number to the experiment.
Where does the money go?
Contributions go to the independent operator running Murphy’s Million. This is an internet experiment, with no charitable cause, prize or financial return.
What becomes yours?
Your permanent Murphy Number and its digital collectible. The number records your place. The card proves you were part of it.

CHECKING THE PUBLIC RECORD...
SEE THE COLLECTIBLE CARDThe latest numbers will appear here when their holders opt in.
Only supporters who chose to appear publicly are shown. Manage your public name in My Murphy. Your email and payment details are always private.
THE FINE PRINT, MINUS THE TINY FONT
This is exactly what it looks like.
Murphy's Million is a voluntary internet experiment, not a charity, investment, raffle or emergency fund. Each verified payment receives one permanent Murphy Number and its digital collectible card. There is no prize or financial return.
Your name or handle, email, payment platform and payment reference are stored to issue and recover your unique Murphy Number and prevent duplicate claims. Your email and payment reference are never shown publicly. Contributions should be treated as non-refundable unless the payment platform requires otherwise.
YES, THIS IS REAL
Reasonable questions about an unreasonable idea.
The exact deal, how your number works, and where to go if you need help.
What do I actually receive?
One permanent Murphy Number and a collectible card for that exact number. You can download it as a PNG or PDF, receive it by email and retrieve it later.
Who handles the payment?
PayPal or Ko-fi handles checkout. Murphy's Million never receives or stores your card details. PayPal Checkout verifies automatically; Ko-fi and the old PayPal link need the claim step.
Is this a charity, investment or raffle?
No. There is no charitable cause, ownership, prize, return or financial benefit. It is a voluntary internet experiment.
Can one person claim multiple numbers?
Yes. Each number requires its own completed transaction and every transaction can be used only once.
Can I choose my number or card design?
Your number is assigned from the available numbers when your payment or claim is verified. A specific number or design cannot be reserved. Standard and special designs follow the number issued; the examples above are illustrations.
Does my quiz result decide my card?
The free quiz gives you a personality result to enjoy and share. It does not choose your permanent number or its collectible design.
Can I gift a place to someone?
Yes. Gift from $1 USD and send a private claim link. Your friend chooses their own name and email, pays nothing, and receives a number when they claim. The gift does not reserve a particular number.
What name should I use, and when does my card arrive?
A name or handle you want on your card. Public-wall display is optional. After verified payment, My Murphy opens your number and downloads; your card is also emailed. If the email takes a moment, your number is still issued and you can save the card in My Murphy.
What information is stored?
Your name or handle, email, payment platform, payment reference and Murphy Number are retained to issue and recover your card and prevent duplicate claims. Your email and payment reference are never displayed publicly.
What if I lose my card?
Open My Murphy and verify your card email with a one-time code. Your original numbers and collectibles will return. Recovery never creates a new number or charges you again.
How do I contact support?
Email support@murphysmillion.com. Never send your full transaction details through social media or post them publicly.
