How to choose a LINE OpenChat member or Official Account friend service

SocialContactApp · Fu Xin Co., Ltd. · Updated 2026-11-01

To choose a LINE member or friend service, start with what the seller asks you to hand over. Adding OpenChat members needs only an invite link, and adding Official Account friends needs only a LINE ID starting with @. If a seller asks for your LINE password, a verification code or admin access to your Official Account, walk away however cheap it is. Then check three things: can you verify delivery yourself, how are unfinished orders refunded, and can you look up the company. Know this first: added accounts are service accounts, they do not bring orders, and no seller can promise how LINE will act. SocialContactApp sells this kind of service too, so the same checks apply to us.

First, be clear about what you are buying

ItemWhat the seller needsWhat changesWhat it will not bring
OpenChat membersOpenChat invite linkMember count goes upConversation, engagement, purchases
Regular friendsLINE ID starting with @Friends and target reach both go upOrders, replies
Blocked friendsLINE ID starting with @Friends go up, target reach does notOrders, replies

If you want real customers, use LINE's own friend ads. In Taiwan they are charged only when someone actually becomes your friend, can target by area, interest, age and gender, and are limited to verified accounts. See How to create a LINE Official Account: free setup on desktop and mobile.

Seven checks

  1. What it asks you to hand over. An invite link for OpenChat, a LINE ID for an Official Account. A seller does not need to be a manager of your Official Account: LINE Taiwan describes the administrator as the highest role, able to add or remove managers and change the payment method.
  2. Are the items clearly separated? OpenChats can be open, password-protected or admin-approved, and Official Account friends can be regular or blocked. If everything is sold as "LINE followers", you may only find out after ordering that it does not fit.
  3. Does it say where the accounts come from? A seller that says they are service accounts tells you what you are buying. Be wary of one that calls them real active customers.
  4. Can you verify delivery yourself? Check the member count for OpenChat and the friend count in the Official Account dashboard. The seller should show order progress, not just say it is done.
  5. How are unfinished orders refunded? Look for written, public terms: how it is calculated, where the money goes and how long it takes.
  6. What happens if the number drops after completion? A refill period should state its days and conditions, and if there is none, that should be stated too. Compare prices by what stays, not by the number on the day.
  7. Can you look up the company, and is payment normal? Check the company registry of the seller's country. Avoid sellers who only take game cards or ask you to pay into a personal account.

Claims to watch for

  • "Guaranteed safe from LINE" or "never drops": sellers do not decide what the platform does.
  • "All real customers" or "guaranteed orders": added accounts did not come for your content.
  • Asking for your LINE password or a phone code, or asking you to scan their QR code to log in: that hands over your account.
  • Only a private LINE contact, with no company name or written terms: nobody is accountable when something goes wrong.

How to verify delivery yourself

  • OpenChat: note the member count before ordering and make sure the member limit setting is high enough; if it is lower than your target, members cannot be added. While the order runs, do not reset the invite link, change how people join, or remove members who have joined.
  • Official Account: check friends and target reach in the dashboard. Target reach counts friends who added you and have not blocked you, and broadcasts are counted from it; see How are LINE Official Account messages counted? Formula, free quota and add-on costs. Blocked friends raise the friend count but not target reach.

Start with a small first order to test delivery and support, and keep the order number and payment record.

LINE's rules and the risks

  • Added members are not a LINE feature. The LY Corporation Common Terms of Use, which apply in Taiwan and Thailand, list prohibited acts in Article 14, including sales, publicity, advertisement, solicitation or any other act for profit. LINE manages accounts and OpenChats under its rules, and no seller can promise anything on LINE's behalf.
  • OpenChat is not ad space: LINE lists activities for the purpose of commercial advertising as prohibited. See LINE Official Account vs OpenChat vs group: which one should a business use?.
  • Numbers do not become business: more members does not mean anyone will talk or buy.

FAQ

Q: How do I choose a LINE follower service?

Start with what it asks you to hand over: an OpenChat invite link or an Official Account LINE ID is enough. Then check whether it explains the account source, lets you verify delivery, states how refunds work, and can be looked up as a company.

Q: Do I need to give my LINE password?

No. OpenChat services use an invite link, and Official Account services use a LINE ID starting with @. Do not use a seller that asks for a password, a code or admin access.

Q: Does a seller need admin access to my Official Account?

No. Adding friends needs only the LINE ID. LINE Taiwan describes the administrator as the highest role, able to add or remove managers and change the payment method, so do not give it to a seller.

Q: Will added friends or members drop?

They can. Account changes or platform rules can reduce the number, so no seller can truthfully say it will never drop. Check what happens after completion before you order.

Q: Will LINE take action if I buy?

Nobody can promise it will not. LINE manages accounts and OpenChats under its rules and may limit or remove accounts.

Q: Is there a better way than buying?

For real customers, use LINE's friend ads, or put your add-friend QR code and link in your shop, on your website and in social posts. Added accounts only change the number and do not bring customers.
