Buy Story Views

Stories has one feature no other metric in this store has: you see exactly who viewed it. That changes everything, and it's the first thing you need to know before buying.

Will the profiles show up in my viewer list?

Yes. This is the most important question on this page, and the honest answer is straightforward: the delivered accounts show up in the list of who viewed your Story, right alongside the real ones.

With post likes, followers, or Reels views, buyers rarely inspect where they came from. With Stories, you open the list every time you want to see who watched — it's a daily habit. So you will see names you don't recognize.

Two practical consequences:

• The list is yours, not public. Only you — and anyone looking at your screen — can see who viewed it. Nobody on the outside audits this.
• You lose the ability to read the list. If you use the viewer list to know who's paying close attention, who came back after disappearing, or whether that one client saw your notice, the purchased volume gets in the way of exactly that use.

If the viewer list is a working tool for you, think twice or buy a small quantity.

How much does it cost to buy Stories views

A thousand views cost $2.10 on the worldwide line and $4.22 on the Brazilian ones. A hundred views go for $0.21 or $0.43, and one of the lines accepts orders starting at 20 views — useful for small profiles that just want to keep the number plausible. The site's minimum is $0.85.

Notice that the caps here are much lower than for Reels. Stories are consumed by your existing base, not a discovery feed, and the catalog reflects that. The official prices are the ones shown at checkout.

The 24-hour window governs everything

Feed posts and Reels keep accumulating numbers for weeks, giving the boost time to work. The Story disappears.

If you order with only a few hours left, delivery might not complete — and there's no way to transfer the balance to the next Story. The practical rule: order right after you publish. A freshly posted Story has the whole window ahead of it, and that's also when most of your base opens it.

Views, impressions, and reach on Stories

These are three different numbers in your Story insights, and mixing them up is common:

• Views — how many times the Story was opened. It's the number from the viewer list.
• Reach — how many distinct accounts saw it. Always equal to or lower than views.
• Impressions — total displays, counting anyone who watched more than once.

There's a line on this page marked + Reach, which also moves the accounts-reached metric. It makes a difference for anyone presenting reports to a client, because reach is the number agencies tend to ask for.

Who sees your Story, and why it matters

A Story circulates almost entirely among people who already follow you. In other words: boosting Story views doesn't bring in new people. What it does is something else, and just as concrete.

Instagram orders the Stories bar at the top of the app by affinity and recent engagement. A Story with activity tends to hold its position in that bar better — which is the most valuable spot in the app for people who already follow you.

There's also a direct social effect: someone who opens the viewer list and sees three names reacts differently than someone who sees three hundred. On a Story with a poll, a question sticker, or a launch announcement, that changes the response rate from people who were on the fence.

Brazilian or worldwide

Here, origin carries weight it doesn't have with Reels, precisely because of the list. Foreign profile names and photos in the viewer list of a Portuguese-language Story are visible to you every time you open the app.

If that bothers you, or if you show your screen to other people — a partner, a client, your team — the Brazilian line is worth the difference. If you just want the number and don't plan to look at the list, the worldwide line delivers the same thing for half the price.

Daily plans and continuous delivery

Some services on the market sell monthly plans, with a fixed volume per day. It's a model that makes sense for people who post Stories every day and want consistency in the number.

Ours works on a one-off order basis: you buy for one specific Story. If your routine is daily, that means placing one order per day — more work, but you control how much you spend and on which content, with no auto-renewal.

Requirements

Public profile and the correct @ handle. The Story needs to be live at the time of delivery. A saved Highlight doesn't receive delivery — Highlight metrics are different from active Story metrics.

We never ask for your password, verification code, or app authorization.

How to measure whether it was worth it

The indicator is your story-sequence completion rate: how many people who opened the first Story made it to the last one. If you boosted the first one and the drop-off to the last one stayed the same, the content didn't hold attention — and more views won't fix that.

If the Story had a poll, a question sticker, or a link, look at replies and taps. That's what separates an audience from a number. For links, there's our Story link clicks page, with the caveats it explains itself.

Frequently asked questions

Does it show up in the viewer list? Yes. That's the defining feature of this category.

Does it work for a Highlight? No. Only for an active Story, within the 24-hour window.

Can I order for several Stories at once? Each order goes to one Story. If you posted a sequence, choose which one you want to boost — usually the first, since that's the one most people open.

How soon does it start? It usually starts within minutes, precisely because of the short window.

What if the Story expires partway through? Delivery is interrupted and there's no transfer to another Story. Order right after you publish.

Do I need a professional account? Not for the order, but reach and impressions metrics only show up on one.
