What is a boost and who is a booster
In this article, you'll learn what “Boost” means, which boost services Goranked offers, who provides them and what you get as a customer.
In short. A boost is a service where an experienced player (a booster) helps you reach the rating, rank or other in-game result you want. On Goranked, orders are fulfilled by Goranked staff boosters and verified boosters. The booster gets paid only after progress is confirmed or the order is complete.
Short answer
A boost is when a stronger player plays for you or with you to reach an agreed result: a certain MMR, rank, FACEIT level, number of calibration matches played and so on. A booster is the person who takes your order.
There are two boost formats:
- solo — the booster plays on your account;
- party — you play together with the booster and don't hand over your account.
We explain the difference in detail in the article Solo boost or party boost.
How it works
Which services are available. At the time of writing, you can order:
- Dota 2: MMR boost, Calibration, Behavior Score boost (decency), Low priority removal, Coaching, Token farming;
- CS2: Premier boost, Competitive boost, FACEIT boost, Premier, Competitive and FACEIT calibration, CS2 coaching;
- Mobile Legends: Rank boost.
- Who does it. Goranked staff boosters and verified boosters. A check mark next to a booster's name means they've passed Goranked verification.
- How to order. The main way is a request. You set up the calculator on the service page and click “Calculate the price”, and boosters offer their prices and deadlines. Other ways are a boost package or a personal offer with a fixed price. For details, see How to order a boost: request, package or Goranked offer.
- What you get. A chat with the booster: before payment — to agree on the price and deadline, after payment — in the order itself. The order status in your account dashboard. A secure transaction: the booster gets paid only after progress is confirmed or the order is successfully completed.
- How it ends. When the booster finishes, the order moves to the “Waiting for confirmation” status. You check the result and click “Confirm completion”.
Good to know
- Safety. Every service page has an “Account Security” block: only verified boosters are allowed to take orders, and support oversees the process until the service is fully completed.
- Guarantee. If the order isn't fulfilled, Goranked will refund your money or offer an equivalent solution.
- Not all games are available. Boosting for League of Legends and Valorant is currently turned off.
Important. The site's FAQ says: “The "Joint Boost" service (party) is safe and doesn't break the game's rules; sharing your login details may not comply with the game's terms of service and carries a risk”. If you don't want to hand over your account, choose a party boost.
