I will be completely open and honest with you and say that I do not think it's possible to automatically "promote" a message or topic within a Kunena forum based on some monetary "triggering" mechanism. By all means, if you want to promote a message in some way, there are probably a thousand ways to do that.
You could, for example, create a custom module that is displayed on your forum pages that links to a "promoted" message.
This is not really a problem that can be addressed by
Kunena,
per se; it's more of a general website management issue; everyone will have a different opinion as to the best way to tackle this issue. I would suggest that this topic has been posted in the wrong forum category on this website. In my opinion, it would be better relocated in the
Miscellaneous, off-topic and general Joomla
category ... but what would I know? I'm only a simple, ordinary user around here.
