YouTube views, the short version
- Have ready: the link of one public video or Short, or of a saved live stream.
- Unchanged by the order: likes, comments and subscribers.
- Keep in mind: YouTube verifies views and may correct the public count later; corrections below the delivered level fall under the refill period.
- Expect: a fixed price in US dollars, charged to your card, with any currency conversion handled by your bank.
The view count and the terms around it
Two facts shape the definition. YouTube shows the view count publicly, under each video and beside its thumbnail in lists and search results, and it validates views under its own rules, so it may correct that public figure after the fact. The terms used for this package:
- View: one unit of the figure under the video whose link you give; nothing else counts toward the order.
- Watch time, average view duration and audience retention: YouTube Studio metrics in their own right, not covered by a views package.
- Eligible formats: regular videos, Shorts and saved live streams, each with a link of its own.
- US YouTube views: the English-language package name; the origin of the accounts is a matter for the owner's statement on the home page alone.
Visibility first, then the link
In YouTube Studio, set the video to “Public”: a private video plays for nobody but you, an unlisted one should be cleared with support through the help page before you order, and an age restriction requires viewers to sign in, which can hold up delivery.
As for the link, the form takes a youtube.com/watch address carrying the video ID, a youtu.be short link, or any address with /shorts/ or /live/ in it. Copy it with Share and “Copy link” in the app, or from the address bar in a browser. A channel address with @ identifies no video, so it is rejected for this service.
Plays, watch time and the channel audience
Views answer how often a video was played. They say nothing about how long anyone watched, which is what watch time on YouTube records in your analytics, and nothing about the channel, whose audience is measured in YouTube subscribers. Each of the three needs its own order. The YouTube section puts their definitions next to each other. Current package types for views: “Standard” and “Premium”.
| Item | Standard | Premium |
|---|---|---|
| Refill period | 30–365 days | 30–365 days |
| Price for 1,000 | $24.99 | $69.99 |
| Packages | 11 | 7 |
When the public count pauses
A pause in the public count can happen on YouTube: the figure under a video is not recalculated continuously and may stand still while YouTube checks views, for delivered and organic views alike. The analytics for the video in YouTube Studio give the closer reading. Make your comparison after completion, against the number you recorded before paying.
Your order number tracks the order on the tracking page, whatever the public counter is doing. Folgup does not name a duration for processing. Should the order close as partly delivered, the undelivered share is refunded.
- Order confirmed with the order number, by e-mail.
- Review and start after payment confirmation; timing depends on the package and quantity.
- Delivery complete and the refill period starts from that date.
Downward corrections and the refill period
The delivered level is the benchmark. Should YouTube lower the view count after completion so that it falls below that benchmark within the period shown on the package, Folgup adds views free of charge until it is restored, never exceeding the purchased quantity.
The refill no longer applies if the video is deleted or set to “Private”, if the channel is suspended or deleted, or if the link given did not lead to the intended video.
The early-start question at checkout
Before payment, the checkout asks whether delivery should begin before the withdrawal period has run out. For a consumer in the EU, Germany included, answering yes allows delivery to begin within that period, and it also means the right of withdrawal ends once the views are fully delivered. Everything else is set out on the page on refunds and withdrawal.
No claims beyond the view count
- Recommendations, the YouTube home page and search results are YouTube's domain, and Folgup makes no statement about them.
- Monetization is outside the order: nothing is said about the YouTube Partner Program or ad revenue.
- Watch time is not included.
- Subscribers and comments do not come with the views.
- Delivery time is not promised.
- Folgup has no affiliation with YouTube or Google.
