Linked to Instagram, but with separate counters
Your Threads account opens with your Instagram account and the username is identical on both. Because of that link people assume the follower counts are shared — they are not. Threads has its own follower counter that moves independently of Instagram.
When you first open the account you are offered a one-off option to follow everyone you already follow on Instagram, but that is a single action; afterwards the two counters move separately. The panel preserves the same distinction: a Threads follower service affects only the Threads counter, and an Instagram follower service only the Instagram one.
- Threads followers: Raise only the Threads counter.
- Instagram followers: A separate service line; does not affect Threads.
- Username: Identical on both; category choice is critical.
- Post engagement: Submitted separately to a Threads post.
Why category choice is critical
Because the username is identical on both platforms, an order placed from the wrong category in the panel processes cleanly but the effect does not appear where expected. A follower order placed from the Instagram category raises the Instagram counter; the Threads counter stays where it was.
This is the most common confusion on Threads orders and one check prevents it: confirming which category you are in before creating the order. The platform name is usually stated explicitly in the service name.
- Confirm you are in the Threads category before ordering.
- Read the platform name in the service name.
- The system does not error, because the username is identical.
- Visibility on both platforms requires two separate orders.
Step-by-step: ordering safely
Threads services run off a username or a public post link; a password, login code or Instagram account access is never requested at any stage. The only precondition is that the Threads profile is not private.
- Confirm the Threads profile is not private using a logged-out browser.
- Copy your username.
- Check you are in the Threads category in the panel.
- Enter the quantity, confirm the total and create the order.
- Do not make the profile private during delivery.
Delivery speed on a new platform
Threads is a relatively new platform, so user behaviour has not settled and sudden spikes stand out more clearly here. Daily speeds on Threads services in the panel are kept low for that reason.
That is not a limitation but the correct choice. Gradual delivery produces a more natural curve and lowers the drop rate. The refill tag also carries extra weight here, because account clean-ups are more frequent on newer platforms.
- Prefer services that deliver gradually.
- Services with a long refill window are more valuable here.
- Sudden spikes stand out more on newer platforms.
- Plan followers alongside post engagement.
Mistakes to avoid
The most common mistake is ordering from the Instagram category and expecting a Threads result. Because the username is identical the order processes cleanly, but the effect appears on the Instagram counter.
The second is making the Threads profile private and then ordering; on private accounts posts cannot be seen from outside so delivery never starts. The third is carrying other platforms’ delivery speeds over to here.
- Confirm you are in the Threads category before ordering.
- Do not make the profile private during the order.
- Prefer gradual delivery.
- Never work with any service that asks for a password or account access.
Payment, start, refunds and refill on the SMMFor panel
You top up a balance first, and orders are deducted from it. Top-ups are made with cryptocurrency and credit automatically once the network confirms. Prices are shown in USD, and the interface can display them converted to your own currency.
Most services start quickly. If a service pauses or delivery falls short, the value of the undelivered portion is refunded to your balance automatically; you do not need to open a request. On services tagged with refill you can raise a replacement request from the orders list. API v2 documentation for resellers and automated ordering is available inside the panel.
How we work
- We never ask for account details. Orders only need a public link or username; a password, verification code or admin access is never requested.
- Prices are live in the panel. Every service shows its price per 1,000, minimum and maximum quantity and estimated time in the panel before you order.
- Orders start automatically. When your balance covers the order, it is sent to the provider right away and you can track its status in the panel.
- Undelivered parts are refunded. If an order is only partly delivered, the amount for the missing part is returned to your panel balance automatically — see our delivery and refund terms.
- Refill only on marked services. On services with a refill guarantee, you can request a refill from the panel if counts drop within that service's refill period.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to give you access to my Instagram account?
No. Every Threads service runs off a username or a public post link. A password, login code or Instagram account access is never requested at any stage.
If I buy Threads followers, will my Instagram followers rise too?
No. Although the Threads account links to Instagram, the follower counters are separate. Visibility on both requires two separate orders.
Can I order with a private account?
No. On private accounts posts cannot be seen from outside, so delivery never starts. The profile needs to stay public for the duration of the order.
Why is delivery slow?
Threads is a relatively new platform so sudden spikes stand out more clearly. Gradual delivery produces a more natural curve and lowers the drop rate.
What happens on partial delivery?
The value of the undelivered portion is refunded to your panel balance automatically. No request is needed — the order shows as “partially completed” and the difference appears in your balance.
