# How fast do bought followers, likes and views arrive?

Short answer

Most orders start delivering within 0–1 hour of the payment confirming. Small orders can finish in minutes. Large orders are deliberately spread over hours or days rather than delivered at once, because a sudden spike is the pattern platforms flag. Crypto payments confirm asynchronously, so dispatch fires when the payment settles rather than when you click pay.

## The timeline, stage by stage

1. **Payment confirms.** Cards are near-instant. USDC settles asynchronously — usually minutes, occasionally longer. Nothing dispatches until the money is confirmed.
2. **The order is placed with the delivery network**, automatically and within seconds. There is no manual review queue.
3. **Delivery begins**, typically inside the first hour.
4. **Delivery completes** — minutes for a small like order, up to a couple of days for a large drip-fed follower order.

## What changes the speed

- **Quantity.** Larger orders are paced on purpose. This is a feature, not a delay.
- **Service type.** Views generally move fastest; followers and comments are slower.
- **Drip-feed.** When enabled, the order is split into timed runs, so completion is measured in hours or days by design.
- **Target availability.** A private, renamed or deleted post stalls delivery — the network has nothing to deliver to.

## These are estimates, not commitments

Start and completion times depend on the upstream delivery network, so we describe them as typical rather than guaranteed. What is guaranteed: if an order cannot be dispatched, the money comes back automatically — exactly the undelivered portion, straight to your account credit.

Live counts for any order are visible on its page in your dashboard, refreshed from the delivery network rather than estimated.
