Speed

Speed is how fast an order delivers once delivery has started, usually stated in the service description as an amount per day or per hour.

Speed and quantity together tell you how long an order should run. At a stated 2,000 per day, an order of 10,000 needs about five days after it starts, before adding the start time. If you have a deadline, do that arithmetic first, because a quantity that looks modest can run for a week on a slow service.

The stated speed is written by whoever made the service listing, often copied from the supplier, and nothing enforces it. Actual speed depends on how many orders the supplier is handling at once across every panel it serves, so it can fall when demand rises. A reseller's description can also go stale when the service behind it changes. When speed falls well below the description, the order simply stays in progress longer: it does not change the price or trigger a refund.

Faster is not automatically better for the profile. A large jump in a short time is easy to see in the account's history, and platforms can flag abrupt changes. If you want gentler growth, use a slower service or drip feed, which splits the order into smaller runs spread over time, rather than hoping a fast service will pace itself.

What it does not mean

Speed is not start time. A service with a high delivery speed can still wait a long time before it begins, and the two figures in a description are separate estimates.
