Poprey
Poprey is one of the cheapest Instagram-likes vendors in the category, with a stripped-down catalog focused on instant delivery. Likes.io covers the same Instagram needs and adds TikTok, YouTube, and five more platforms, plus a documented account-quality methodology and 30-day refill across every tier. Side-by-side: how the two compare on price, refill terms, support, and what each catalog covers for 2026.

Poprey
6.5/10
Likes.io wins.
Likes.io wins on platform coverage, refill guarantee, and support depth. Poprey wins on absolute floor price for small Instagram orders. If you only need Instagram likes once and budget is the only variable, Poprey is competitive; if you need multi-platform coverage or buy regularly, the operational gaps in Poprey's support and refill terms add up.

The verdict
Why we picked Likes.io
Poprey is a legitimate option if you only need Instagram engagement and the $0.99 entry tier matches your budget. The 50¢-per-50-likes savings vs Likes.io is real at the smallest tier and disappears at volume. The reasons to choose Likes.io over Poprey are operational: multi-platform coverage, 30-day uniform refill, 24/7 live chat, and a published methodology you can audit. For one-off small Instagram orders the choice is closer; for everything else Likes.io's depth is the difference.
- 01Multi-platform vs Instagram-only. Likes.io covers seven platforms; Poprey is Instagram-only. If you ever need TikTok or YouTube engagement alongside Instagram, Poprey forces you to manage two vendors.
- 02Uniform 30-day refill vs package-dependent. Likes.io's 30-day refill applies to every package. Poprey's refill terms are package-dependent and entry-tier orders typically ship with no refill guarantee.
- 0324/7 live chat vs business-hours email. Likes.io runs round-the-clock live chat through Crisp. Poprey is email-only with business-hours response, which means a stalled order on a weekend waits until Monday.
Likes.io’s caveats — Entry price ($1.49) is 50¢ above Poprey's floor and Not the absolute cheapest option for one-off small orders.
Where Poprey holds up — Lowest entry-tier prices for Instagram likes, Instant delivery on small orders, and Stripped-down catalog is easy to navigate.
The price
What it costs
Poprey's $0.99 entry tier matches the lowest pricing in the SMM category for Instagram likes. The 50¢ difference vs Likes.io's $1.49 floor is real on small orders but disappears above 1,000 likes where both apply volume discounts. Where Poprey's pricing breaks down is multi-platform coverage — you can't get TikTok or YouTube there at any price, so cross-platform campaigns force a second vendor.

Questions we get.
How does Likes.io compare to Poprey?
Likes.io and Poprey both sell Instagram likes at competitive entry prices ($1.49 vs $0.99). The main differences are catalog breadth (Likes.io covers 7 platforms, Poprey is Instagram-only), refill terms (Likes.io 30 days on every package vs Poprey's package-dependent), and support (Likes.io 24/7 live chat vs Poprey's business-hours email). For Instagram-only buyers under 200 likes, Poprey's $0.99 floor is hard to beat; for everything else, Likes.io's operational depth is the reason to choose us.
Is Poprey safe to use?
Poprey doesn't require an Instagram password and uses standard payment processors — baseline safety signals are met. The unknowns are operating history (shorter public track record than Buzzoid or Twicsy), supplier methodology (no published QA process), and support reachability (business-hours email). For one-off purchases the safety bar is comparable to other SMM panels; for ongoing relationships the gaps in transparency are meaningful.
Which has faster delivery?
Both providers offer instant-start on small Instagram orders (under 1,000 likes). On larger volumes, Likes.io paces delivery over 6-24 hours to mimic organic engagement curves; Poprey's pacing model isn't publicly documented. See /methodology/delivery-speed for our per-tier breakdown.
Does Poprey offer TikTok or YouTube?
No — Poprey is Instagram-only. If you need TikTok, YouTube, Twitter/X, Facebook, Twitch, or SoundCloud engagement, you'll need a separate vendor. Likes.io carries all seven platforms under one account so cross-platform campaigns ship from a single dashboard.
What's the refill policy difference?
Likes.io offers a 30-day refill on every package across every platform. Poprey's refill terms are package-dependent and entry-tier orders frequently ship with no refill guarantee at all. If you've had engagement drops in past purchases, the refill uniformity matters.
Which has better support?
Likes.io runs 24/7 live chat through the Crisp widget — typical response under 5 minutes. Poprey is email-only with business-hours response, so a weekend issue waits until Monday. For time-sensitive order issues (campaign launches, stalled delivery), live chat is the operational difference.
Can I switch from Poprey to Likes.io mid-campaign?
Yes — both services are independent and target the same Instagram accounts. You can run a campaign on Poprey, then switch to Likes.io for the next batch without any account-level conflict. Many buyers test both before settling on a primary vendor.
