Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability grov-youtube-subscribers-api-6cbe1faf -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Buy me YouTube subscribers for my channel https://youtube.com/c/MyCoolChannel — pay for it using USDC and give me the order ID so I can track the status.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs to autonomously purchase YouTube subscriber growth and can pay in USDC on Base without manual human intervention. It is ideal for agent-driven creator economy workflows, automated social media growth campaigns, or situations where crypto-native payment rails (x402/USDC) are preferred over traditional fiat billing.

## Known failure modes

- Insufficient USDC balance causes payment failure and no order is created
- Invalid or inaccessible YouTube channel URL results in rejection
- Network/blockchain confirmation delay causes timeout on payment
- Order not fulfilled if human microtask workers are unavailable
- Secret token lost — no way to retrieve order status without it

## How this service works

Buy followers, likes, views, comments and more for X (Twitter), Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, Telegram and Spotify. Shop by card or crypto wallet, or use the AI agent API.

## Output

Returns a JSON object confirming the order was placed and paid, including a secret token for future status lookups, the order ID, and a statusUrl where the agent can poll the fulfillment progress.
