Natural delivery is a switch on the order card. Leave it off and your order starts as soon as possible and arrives at the pace the source delivers. Turn it on and we spread the same order over a period you choose, between 2 and 14 days, in small, evenly spaced batches. It is available on every tier: Standard, Premium and Elite. This article explains how it works, why spread-out growth looks more like the way accounts normally grow, and when you might not want it.
How natural delivery works
When natural delivery is on, our own workers split your order into batches and place them on a schedule, roughly every six hours, across the number of days you picked. Because we run the schedule ourselves rather than relying on a supplier feature, it works with any service in the catalog, not only the few that offer drip-feed natively.
Each batch respects the minimum and maximum the source accepts, so very small orders may be split into fewer batches than the schedule would otherwise allow. Your order timeline shows exactly when each batch is scheduled and when it goes out, so you can follow progress rather than wonder what is happening.
Why spreading growth looks more organic
Think about how a real account grows. A post does a bit better than usual, a few people share it, someone mentions the account somewhere, and the follower count creeps up over days. Even a post that takes off rarely adds a large block of followers in one instant. Growth tends to come in waves and trickles, tied to activity.
A large, sudden jump with no matching activity stands out, both to people looking at your profile and, potentially, to whatever automated checks a platform runs. We can't tell you exactly how any platform's systems work, because platforms don't publish that and change it often. What we can say is that gradual growth is closer to the normal shape of an account, and that most people who look at a profile will find a steady rise less odd than an overnight spike.
Natural delivery is not a disguise and it is not a guarantee. Platforms set their own rules and can remove engagement at any time, whatever the pacing. Spreading an order out is simply a more sensible default for many situations, and your tier's refill window still covers drops inside it.
Grow at the speed your content could plausibly explain.
Matching the pace to your activity
The best results come when the extra growth lines up with something real happening on the account. A few practical pairings:
- A content push. If you plan to post daily for two weeks, spreading an order across that same stretch means new visitors keep finding fresh posts.
- A launch. Start natural delivery a few days before a launch so the profile looks active when the announcement goes out, and keep it running through launch week.
- A dormant account coming back. If an account has been quiet for months, a longer spread alongside a return to posting is far less jarring than an instant jump.
- Several services at once. If you are adding followers and likes, spread both so they move together rather than one jumping while the other stays flat.
Choosing how many days
There is no perfect number, but some rules of thumb help. These are general guidance, not data, and the right choice depends on your account.
- Consider the size of the order relative to your current count. Adding a few hundred followers to an account that already has thousands needs little spreading. Doubling a small account is a bigger change and deserves more days.
- Consider your posting schedule. If you post a few times a week, spreading over at least a week means the growth overlaps with several posts.
- Consider your deadline. If you need the count in place for an event, count backwards and leave a margin, because delivery can take a little longer than scheduled if a source is busy.
When you might switch it off
Natural delivery is not always the right call. There are good reasons to want delivery as fast as possible:
- Time-sensitive posts. Views or likes on a post tied to a moment, like a match result or a live announcement, are worth more today than next week.
- Live viewers. Live services are, by nature, delivered during the stream.
- Small top-ups. A small order on a large account is unlikely to look unusual, so spreading it gains you little.
What natural delivery does not change
Pacing is separate from quality. Natural delivery doesn't change which source your order goes to; your tier does that. It also doesn't change the price. If you are deciding between tiers, see choosing Standard, Premium or Elite.
Your refill window starts when the order completes, so a longer spread doesn't eat into your cover. Undelivered parts are still refunded to your wallet automatically, to the cent, and your account still needs to stay public for the whole delivery, which matters more when delivery runs over two weeks. If you switch the profile to private halfway through, the remaining batches can't be delivered.
For resellers and API users
If you order through the Reseller API, the standard drip-feed parameters map onto natural delivery. As on other panels, quantity is per run, so the total is quantity times runs, and we deliver that total spread over the runs and interval you set, rounded to whole days between 1 and 30. Your clients get the same gradual pattern as a direct order. The reseller playbook covers how to explain pacing to clients.
A checklist before you order
- Make sure the account or post is public, and will stay public for the whole spread.
- Note your current count, or take a screenshot. It makes any later refill straightforward. See refills and drops.
- Pick a spread that overlaps with real activity on the account.
- Plan your content for the delivery period, because new visitors will judge the posts they find.
Worked examples in this guide are hypothetical and for illustration only. Social platforms set their own rules and can remove engagement at any time; refills cover drops inside your tier's window.
