Vote Buying Prices 2026: Per-Platform Pricing to Buy Votes

How much does it cost to buy votes?

Buying votes costs $0.042 to $0.139 per vote in 2026 at the 1,000-vote tier, set by the target platform's defense stack. Generic IP, Telegram and Twitter votes start at $0.042; StrawPoll runs $0.075; Facebook-class polls sit near $0.095; IMDb is $0.11, CoinSniper $0.12, and the heavily defended Product Hunt reaches $0.139. A typical 1,000-vote campaign lands between $45 and $200.

Three figures anchor the whole table. The cheapest real votes are generic residential-IP, Telegram and Twitter/X poll votes at $0.042 each; the most defended are Product Hunt upvotes at $0.139 each — a 4.4× spread driven entirely by defenses, not by the vote itself. Across our 2026 audit of all 1333 platforms we price, the median per-vote rate at the 1,000-vote tier sits near $0.095, the same band Facebook-class contest polls occupy.

A photographer entering a regional Facebook contest, a crypto founder chasing a CoinSniper listing, and a K-pop fan cafe defending a StrawPoll bias poll all ask the same question — and get three different answers, because a vote is priced by what the platform forces it to survive, not by the click itself. There is no single per-vote number. There is a band, and where your platform falls inside it depends entirely on its defenses. This page lays out the full ladder, drawn directly from our live service-page prices, then explains the four drivers behind the numbers so you can predict the rate on any platform — including ones not listed.

• 2026 vote prices run $0.042–$0.139 each, set by platform defenses.
• Cheapest: generic IP, Telegram and Twitter at $0.042; priciest: Product Hunt at $0.139.
• Four cost drivers: IP type, CAPTCHA, account aging, pacing overhead.
• Volume discounts reach 22–50% off versus the entry rate.
• Size to surviving votes — re-cost any cheap quote per surviving vote.

Which vote type should you buy?

Buy the vote type that matches your contest's platform and how hard it checks votes. For lightly defended polls (Telegram, Twitter, generic IP) buy IP or platform votes from $0.045 at the lowest detection risk. For account-gated contests (Facebook, Instagram) buy aged-account votes near $0.095. For CAPTCHA or karma-scored platforms (CoinSniper, Product Hunt) buy the premium $0.12–$0.20 tier. Skip buying entirely on regulated or political votes.

Use this decision table to pick a vote type before you look at the full price ladder. Each row is a buying scenario, not just a platform — match your situation to the "pick this if" column, then jump to the linked service for exact pricing. Detection risk is our own internal flag-rate band across delivered orders, lowest to highest.

The pattern is consistent: the lighter a platform's defenses, the cheaper and safer the vote, and the less you gain from paying for a heavier vote type than the contest actually requires. Buying aged-account Facebook votes for a plain IP-counted poll is wasted spend; buying cheap IP votes for a CAPTCHA-gated crypto listing wastes the order because the votes never clear. Match the vote type to the defense, then size the order from the master table below.

What is the full price of every platform's votes?

Across all 1333 services we price, per-vote rates at the 1,000-vote tier run from $0.042 on the lightest IP-only endpoints to $0.139 on Product Hunt. The table below lists each platform's 100-vote entry price, 1,000-vote popular tier, the resulting per-vote rate, and the single defense layer that sets that price. Numbers come straight from each service page.

Read it cheapest-first. The per-vote column is calculated at the 1,000-vote tier — the most-ordered size, where mid-range volume discounts apply. Entry pricing at 100 votes is always slightly higher per vote, and bulk pricing at 20,000 votes is always lower. The right-hand column is the part that actually predicts cost: count a platform's defense layers and the rate follows.
