Buying and ordering
What happens if my account is private when I order?
Last updated by The PanelCompare editorial team
Why does a private account break delivery?
The source accounts have to reach the target the same way any other account would. A private profile requires an approved follow request, and no delivery system in this market issues or waits for one. Panels return this either as an immediate “incorrect link” error or as a long Pending followed by a Canceled.
Going private mid-order is the expensive version
Switching an account to private after delivery has started strands the remainder. The panel sees a partial, credits the undelivered value to your wallet, and the units already delivered are the ones most likely to drop — because a paused, half-finished delivery is exactly the anomaly pattern platforms look for.
What else produces an incorrect-link error?
- The wrong URL shape for the row: a profile URL on a likes service, or a post URL on a followers service.
- A shortened or share-sheet link that the provider cannot resolve.
- A regional or app-only URL form that differs from the canonical web address.
- Content that was deleted, archived or age-restricted after the order was placed.
Think this answer is wrong?
Prices, refill terms and platform policies in this market all move, so an answer that was right in September may not be right in December. Every figure above names its source and the date it was checked; if one of them is stale or wrong, the correction process on the about page has a two-working-day reply target, and corrections are published with a dated note rather than quietly patched.
