Onflow Verified for channel owners
As a channel owner you see the Onflow Verified score of every channel you connected, each part behind it, and a short list of what would raise it. This page shows where that is and what each kind of fix means.
Every connected channel is scored on every plan, and the owner's view is the same on every plan. No plan raises a score.
Your role decides what this page shows
The Onflow Verified page has a separate view for each account role. A Channel owner account sees Your channels, described here. An Advertiser account sees Buy an audit report and Your audit reports instead, with a note that channel scores are for Channel owner accounts (Onflow Verified for advertisers). If your Channel owner account bought audit reports before roles were introduced, they stay readable on the page, but you cannot buy new ones.
Open your Onflow Verified page
Open the Onflow Verified page from the Telegram dashboard. Under Your channels it lists each connected channel with its badge, its three parts and the date it was last calculated. The same badge appears on the channel's own page in the dashboard, in the card Onflow Verified and your posts.
Elite plan · Channel owner — a scored channel and one still New 1 The badge with the score and its confidence. 2 The three parts and the evidence behind each. 3 What is pulling it down, with one fix per line. 4 Appeal this score. The page is the same on every plan.
A channel that does not have enough evidence yet shows Onflow Verified · New and a progress line instead of a number.

What is pulling your score down
Under each scored channel, the list What is pulling it down names concrete fixes, worst first. Each line names what happened and what to do, for example:
- "2 placements were removed before the end of the window — keep ads up for their full window."
- "1 ad was edited after it went up — leave booked posts exactly as they were published."
- "3 more placements from 2 more advertisers to show a score."
The list only names things you can change. It never says your audience is not real, and it never asks you to post more, gain subscribers or chase reactions, because none of those enter the score.
How to raise a score
These steps move the parts that make up the score:
- Keep every ad up for its whole window. An early removal is the biggest single cost to delivery.
- Leave a booked post as it was published. Do not edit it, and keep a sold pin in place.
- Post every booking you accept. An accepted booking that is never posted counts as not delivered, so decline a booking you can't run.
- Run ads for more than one advertiser. A score needs placements from several advertisers, and confidence grows with them.
- Keep the bot an administrator. Delivery and reader response can only be measured where the bot can see the post and its invite link.
A score is recalculated every night and soon after a placement finishes, so a fix shows up within a day.
On a phone
The Onflow Verified page works the same on a phone: the cards stack in one column.

Channel facts and your score
Reach delivered compares an ad with the views your channel's own recent posts reach, read from the channel's public page. It does not depend on Post fingerprints: your score is calculated the same way with that switch on or off. See Channel facts and your consent.
Where others see your badge
Your channel's public badge, with the same words as your public channel page, is shown:
- to advertisers in the Paid Promotions catalogue, on your channel's page, when they book, in their cart and in the Channel Finder;
- to other owners on your Cross-Promotion directory card, your open campaigns on the board, and the swap requests you send or receive;
- to a Syndicate source, beside your channel, when you ask for a licence to one of their posts.
In Cross-Promotion you see your partners' badges the same way. They are shown so you can judge who you swap with; nothing in Cross-Promotion is ranked or filtered by them.
Plus plan · Channel owner — partner cards in Cross-Promotion, one scored and one New 1 A partner with a score. 2 A partner that reads New.
What New means for your channel
New only says there is not enough evidence yet. It is never treated as a low score. The score helps rank channels in the Channel Finder and in the Subscriber Exchange's choice of host channels. There, a New channel counts as the middle score of the scored channels it is compared with. With fewer than 3 scored channels in the comparison, the score plays no part. In the Subscriber Exchange the score moves a host channel by at most 10% either way.
Plans never buy a score or a place
No plan, payment or Onflow Credit is part of a score, and your plan never changes your channel's score or where the score puts it. The only plan effect in the Subscriber Exchange is the separate host perk your plan lists; it has nothing to do with Onflow Verified.
