How to read a social media services price table: per-1,000 pricing, minimums and refill

NIST's unit pricing guide defines a unit price as the cost per unit of measure, and it sets one rule that matters here: all units across a product category should be unit priced the same way ^[1]. For engagement packages, the unit is one follower, like or view, and the convention is to express the price per 1,000 of them, because single units are too small to read.

The formula, without figures

1. Take the package price P and its quantity Q.
2. Unit price per 1,000 = P ÷ Q × 1,000.
3. Do the same for every package you compare, on the same platform and the same service type.

Worked example, labeled as an example and kept in letters: package A costs P1 for Q1 followers, package B costs P2 for Q2. If P2 ÷ Q2 is smaller than P1 ÷ Q1, B is cheaper per unit, even if P2 is the larger number on the page. If you only need Q1, though, the lower unit price of B buys you followers you did not plan to buy. Start from the quantity you need, then compare unit prices among packages of that size.

NIST also says unit pricing should appear on online price lists, close to the selling price ^[1]. A table that shows a per-unit rate next to each package saves you the division; a table that does not leaves it to you.

Most tables sell fixed steps rather than any quantity you type. The smallest step is the minimum order. Two things follow from that. First, the price of the minimum is the real entry price, which is what a token like $11.98 shows on this site for Instagram followers. Second, where unit prices fall as steps get larger, a per-1,000 figure taken from the largest package says little about the package you will actually buy.

When you compare two sellers, compare the same step on both sides: minimum against minimum, or the same quantity against the same quantity. Comparing one seller's largest package with another's smallest is a common way for a table to mislead without a single false number on it.

A refill period is a promise about drops after delivery: if the count falls during that period, the seller tops it up. On this site, the refill tops up free of charge, up to the quantity delivered, for the period shown on the package, starting at completion. Refill periods differ by package; for Instagram followers here they read 30–365 days.

Read the exclusions as carefully as the period. Typical exclusions are an account made private, deleted or restricted after delivery, a deleted post, a changed username or an order sent to the wrong link. A refill also cannot reverse platform enforcement in any lasting way. Instagram removes automated likes, comments and follows when it discovers them ^[2]. TikTok removes inflated signals such as fake likes and followers ^[3]. YouTube does not count traffic it finds to be artificial ^[4].

1. Same unit? Convert both to a price per 1,000 with the formula above ^[1].
2. Same step? Compare the quantity you need on both sides, not the largest packages.
3. Same service? A follower, a like and a view are different units; do not mix them in one comparison.
4. Refill terms? Note the period, what starts it, and the exclusions.
5. Platform terms? Read the platform's own rules on inauthentic engagement before buying, because they apply whatever the price ^[2].

This guide explains a method; it is not legal advice and does not say whether any particular purchase is lawful. The FTC summary above comes from the agency's own Q&A, which defines fake indicators by their origin, for example bots, accounts not tied to a real person, or hijacked accounts ^[5]. It contains no figures on how often platforms remove engagement, because none of the sources we read publishes one for a buyer's situation.

The Czadi price list already shows a per-unit rate next to every package, read from the live catalog, so the division above is done for you; the price list is the place to compare steps. For example, Instagram followers start at $11.98 and TikTok followers at $7.99. You pay by card through Stripe in US dollars, give only a public link or a username, never a password, and the refill period is recorded on the order when you place it.

What the price does not change is listed above: platform rules apply to every order, and Czadi promises no reach, sales or income. Questions before ordering go to support on WhatsApp, in English, Polish or Turkish.
