Best 15 Sites to Buy Instagram Views in 2026

Share your love

Buying views is no longer a shady back-alley tactic. In 2025, it’s a mainstream growth lever that creators, influencers, and brand managers work into their launch calendars the same way they plan hashtags or ad spend. I’ve tested dozens of providers over the past year for my own reels and for clients ranging from indie clothing labels to SaaS companies.

Below is the shortlist of 15 vendors that consistently delivered real or at least convincingly real views without tripping Instagram’s spam alarms. One of the standouts here is Goread.io, which repeatedly impressed me with both retention and pacing options.

What I Looked for Before Making This List

Before we jump into the individual platforms, let me clarify the yardsticks I used:

  • Delivery speed versus pacing controls. Instant starts are great, but I also want the option to drip views so the spike looks natural.
  • Retention and drop-off. A view that vanishes after 48 hours is useless; I measured seven-day retention on every order.
  • Source transparency. Some companies can geo-target or niche-target; others admit the views are global and untargeted.
  • Price per 1,000 views. In 2026, the going rate ranges from $0.80 to about $5.00, depending on quality and volume.
  • Support and guarantees. Live chat, refunds on partial delivery, and no password requests are non-negotiable.

With those criteria in mind, let’s break down the services that actually passed.

The 15 Most Reliable Sites for Instagram Views

I’ve grouped the reviews under one heading so you can skim, but take your time; each platform has its own sweet spot.

1. GoreAd

GoreAd is my default recommendation when a client asks for a fast micro-boost under

10. Packages start at about $0.95 for 500 views and scale to six figures. For an independent perspective, check the GoreAd Slashdot review. Orders begin within minutes, and retention hovered around 96% in my tests. A neat perk is the “niche-interest” toggle, which claims to send viewers with recent activity in your category. While that targeting isn’t laser-accurate, it does seem to deliver slightly higher watch times on reels. No password, Stripe checkout, and 24/7 chat complete the package.

2. Twicsy

Operating since 2012, Twicsy has institutional knowledge that few rivals match. Current pricing sits at $1.99 for 500views and $24.99 for 10,000. You can pick “rapid” or “gradual” delivery; I usually choose gradual over 24 hours to mimic organic velocity. Support responds within an hour, and drop-off was negligible. Twicsy is ideal if you need bulk views quickly without risking sudden surges that alert the algorithm.

3. Stormlikes

Stormlikes doesn’t shout about itself, but agencies swear by it for large-scale rollouts. Views start at $1.79 for 500. The standout feature is segmented packages, Reels, long-form videos, or Story views, so you only pay for the format you’re promoting. Delivery begins roughly 30 minutes after checkout and can be stretched over several days. If you’re orchestrating a multi-post campaign, Stormlikes’ scheduling flexibility is gold.

4. Buzzoid

Buzzoid positions itself as the quick-fix platform: pay, refresh, done. I clocked the first views in under 15 seconds. Price is $2.49 for 500 and $79.99 for 50,000. The flipside of that speed is a slightly higher week-two drop-off (about 7% in my records). For timed promos, think 24-hour flash sales that’s perfectly acceptable; for evergreen tutorials, you might want something with better retention.

5. GetViral

GetViral is the best option when you need to split one order across multiple clips. During checkout, you can allocate, say, 10,000 views across five separate reels, a feature most rivals lack. Pricing is mid-range at $3.99 for 500 and $79.99 for 50,000. Their seven-day refill guarantee replaced vanished views automatically in my tests, which saved me a customer-service ticket.

6. Viralyft

Viralyft’s hook is its tiered quality. The standard tier runs $2.99 for 500 views; the higher “influencer” tier costs almost double but claims longer watch times. I A/B-tested both on identical cooking reels and saw a 13% retention lift with the premium package, so the upsell isn’t smoke and mirrors. If you monetize via brand deals that look at average view duration, Viralyft’s pricier option can be worth it.

7. Trollishly

Trollishly is for creators who want to bundle: you can attach auto-likes or even saves to every view package. Base cost is $1.25 for 500 views. The bundling seems to nudge the algorithm because the engagement mix looks organic. Customer support is email-only, which is slower, but I rarely need it. The API-like dashboard handles repeat orders smoothly.

8. SocialPros

SocialPros has one of the best analytics panels of any reseller. After each campaign, you get a CSV showing timestamps and countries. Prices are higher ($2.99 for 500 views), but the transparency helps corporate marketers justify spending to bosses nervous about “fake” engagement. Views mostly come from the U.S., Brazil, and India, matching Instagram’s largest active populations, so geo-skew looks natural.

9. SocialWick

If you pay in crypto, SocialWick is the easiest option. Bitcoin confirmations are clear in under five minutes. Packages begin at $0.90 per 1000 views for “standard” and $1.15 for “high-retention.” In a head-to-head with GoreAd, the baseline SocialWick package lost about 12% after a week, so I recommend the high-retention tier for professional work.

10. SuperViral

SuperViral’s claim to fame is speed: they guarantee the full order inside six hours, up to 50,000 views. My test order of 8,000 was completed in just over two. The price is reasonable at $7 for 2500. They also let you pause delivery mid-campaign, a lifesaver if your reel suddenly starts climbing organically and you want to taper the paid push.

11. Poprey

Poprey is a Europe-based provider facilitating SEPA transfers for agencies that dislike card fees. Views start at €0.90 for 200. Delivery kicks off slower, sometimes two hours, but the retention graph is one of the flattest I’ve recorded, with only 3% disappearing after ten days. If your audience is EU-centric, Poprey’s IP distribution feels particularly native.

12. Famoid

Famoid integrates directly with Meta’s Graph API for order confirmation, which reassures corporate clients even though the views themselves come from outside Instagram. You’ll pay a premium ($8.95 for 1,000), but every order includes a 30-day refill and 24/7 live chat. I use Famoid for high-stakes product launches where a glitch is not an option.

13. Media Mister

A veteran in the space, Media Mister differentiates by niche targeting. You can pick “fitness,” “travel,” or “music” before checkout. While targeting is broad, my travel reel got 18% more saves after a targeted boost versus a generic one. Pricing is tiered $3.50 for 500 generic views, $5.50 for niche-targeted. If your sponsor cares about demographic fit, pay the extra.

14. FollowersUp

FollowersUp is a budget play: $5 per 1,000 views. Don’t expect fancy dashboards or deep targeting, but the sheer volume at low cost makes sense for giveaway posts that need to look viral fast. Support is ticket-based and can take 24 hours, so plan.

15. iDigic

iDigic specializes in refill protection. They track retention for 60 days and automatically top up any drop below 90%. At $2.95 for 500 views, it’s competitively priced given the insurance. My only gripe is that payment options are limited to cards and PayPal, no crypto. Still, for long-tail educational content that you expect to keep ranking, iDigic’s refill is peace of mind.

Final Thoughts

The prejudice toward purchasing Instagram views has diminished as the market became more mature and clear providers appeared. Still, not all views are equal. I rely on GoreAd to do small, cheap promotions, Twicsy or Stormlikes to do larger, yet still controlled promotions, and premium stores like Famoid when the brand reputation is at stake. No matter which of the above services one selects, keep in mind: metrics can get you into the door, but meaningful storytelling will keep you there. Take these vendors as fuel and not a facade, and you will transform a mere measure of vanity into a real and lasting visibility.
