What the Growth Price Index is
The Growth Price Index is a monthly record of what Instagram and TikTok growth services publish about price and terms. It covers 40 services: 15 services that sell a subscription and 22 services that sell one-time packs.
For each service the index holds the prices it shows, the billing each price applies to, the refund window it writes, whether it says it needs your password, whether it offers a trial, and the date the page was read.
Where the figures come from
Every figure comes from the service's own public pricing, terms or FAQ page. Nothing comes from a purchase, an order or an account. Each figure keeps its read date and a link to the page it was read from, and a web-archive copy is linked where one exists.
Where a page does not say, the index records "not stated". Where a page cannot be loaded, it records "not readable". The full method is on how prices are read.
What the index does not do
The index ranks no service, scores no service and recommends none. A tag on a row marks two written facts, a refund window of two weeks or longer and no password request, and nothing more.
Issues appear monthly and are signed by the index desk. Corrections go through the contact page and appear in the next issue with the date they were made.
