If you sell followers, likes and views to friends or clients by hand, a child panel turns that into a proper business. Here's what it is and how it works.
Child panel, in one sentence
A child panel is your own SMM panel website, on your own domain and with your own brand, that automatically buys every order from a bigger "main" panel. Your customers order on your site, you set the prices, and the main panel delivers.
How the money works
- Your customer tops up their wallet on your site, paying into your payment account.
- They order, for example 1,000 Instagram followers.
- Your panel buys that order from the main panel at your cost price.
- You keep the difference between your price and your cost.
What you need
- A domain name, for example yourbrand.com.
- A child panel plan from a main panel.
- Payment keys for the payment providers you'll accept, so money goes straight to you.
- A wallet balance on the main panel to cover your customers' orders.
Child panel vs API vs reselling by hand
| By hand | API | Child panel | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Your own website | No | You build it | Ready-made |
| Automatic orders | No | Yes | Yes |
| Customer accounts and wallets | No | You build it | Included |
| Technical skill needed | None | High | Low |
