The best rental SMM panel platform for you depends on two numbers: how many orders you expect each month, and how each platform counts an order. We compared six platforms from their own pricing pages on November 9, 2026: FlashyPanels (us), Perfect Panel, SMMPanelRent, ExcelPanel, Official Rental Panel and My Rental Panel.
We run one of the six, so we have tried to make this easy to check. Every competitor fact below comes from that platform's own site on that date and nothing else. Prices change, so open their pricing page before you decide. We do not claim to be the best or the cheapest, and at some volumes we are not.
How We Compared Them
A rental SMM panel is a hosted panel website you pay for monthly: your domain, your brand, your providers and your prices, on someone else's server. Every platform here sells that. They differ in four places that matter to an operator:
- Price at your volume. Most charge by orders per month, in tiers. A platform that is cheapest at 500 orders can be the most expensive at 20,000.
- What counts as an order. Some count canceled orders, some do not. One counts only orders sent to outside providers.
- What is in the plan. Provider limits, themes, DDoS protection and support differ by tier.
- When you pay. Some bill before the month (prepaid), some invoice after it closes.
We did not test uptime, support speed or delivery quality for anyone, including ourselves, so none of that is scored here. Treat every "included" below as the platform's own statement.
Price at 500 Orders a Month
At 500 orders a month, the low end of the market is $5. ExcelPanel, Official Rental Panel and My Rental Panel all publish a $5 entry plan. SMMPanelRent is $12 (and free up to 100 orders). We are $10 on Starter. Perfect Panel is $50, and its first month is $50 whatever your volume.
Price at 2,000 Orders a Month
At 2,000 orders the gap moves. ExcelPanel, Official Rental Panel and My Rental Panel are $10. We and SMMPanelRent are $25, because 2,000 orders is past our Starter limit of 500 and lands on Pro. Perfect Panel is $75.
If you are sure you will sit around 1,000 to 2,000 orders for a long time, the $10 tiers elsewhere cost less than our Pro plan. That is a real point in their favour.
Price at 20,000 Orders a Month
At 20,000 orders My Rental Panel's Mother Panel stays at $10, because it is listed as unlimited orders. ExcelPanel is $35, SMMPanelRent $40, Official Rental Panel $50, FlashyPanels $60 on Business and Perfect Panel $150.

What Each Platform Says It Includes
FlashyPanels
Three plans. Starter is $10 for 500 orders and 5 providers, Pro is $25 for 10,000 orders and 20 providers and adds subscriptions, Business is $60 with no limit on orders or providers. Every plan includes hosting, a free SSL certificate, backups and DDoS protection. Billing is prepaid, there is no setup fee, and an upgrade applies straight away. Themes are Prism, our managed theme, plus editable themes. Child panels are a module, and there is a public demo at demo.flashypanels.com. The rental panel page lists everything a plan covers.
Perfect Panel
Tiered by monthly orders, from Plan A at $50 for up to 1,000 orders through Plan Z at $1,250 for up to 2.2 million. New panels start on Plan A, and the page says the first month costs $50 regardless of orders. Plan changes are automatic and based on the previous period. Completed and canceled orders both count, and each subscription or drip-feed order counts as one order. The fee covers maintenance and infrastructure; you connect your own providers. We compare the two of us in more depth on the Perfect Panel alternative page.
SMMPanelRent
The site is in Russian. Plans are Free (up to 100 orders), Starter $12 (101 to 1,000), Basic $25 (1,001 to 10,000) and Growth $40 (10,001 to 100,000), then $40 for each further 100,000. Only orders sent to third-party providers count: orders through their own provider, Heroverin SMM, and canceled orders are not counted. Invoices are issued after the month closes and paid by card or crypto. The page describes two layers of DDoS protection, automatic SSL and regular backups.
ExcelPanel
Seven tiers per 30-day cycle, from Plan A at $5 (0 to 700 orders) to Plan X at $100 (250,001 and up). Every plan includes every platform feature, there is no setup fee and a 0% sales commission. Child panels are described as a feature with no separate price. The page lists 200+ payment methods and has a demo. It makes no DDoS claim.
Official Rental Panel
Four plans: Starter Panel $5 (0 to 1,000 orders, shared hosting, 7 themes), Premium $10 (1,000 to 5,000, 15+ themes), Business $25 (5,000 to 15,000, 20+ themes) and Economy $50 (unlimited subject to plan terms, VPS server, all themes). DDoS Protection is listed on the Business and Economy plans. The setup fee wording differs between the footer and the FAQ, so confirm it at checkout. There is a demo.
My Rental Panel
Four plans: Baby Panel $5 (0 to 1,000 orders, 7 themes), Mother Panel $10 (unlimited orders, 25+ themes), Child Panel Reseller $7 (unlimited orders, 1 API) and My Rental Panel Reseller $50 (15 rental panels, all themes). The FAQ says there is no setup fee. The page lists 65+ payment gateways and a demo, and makes no DDoS claim.
Which Platform Fits Which Operator
There is no single winner. These are the patterns we would point a friend to:
- Testing an idea with almost no orders. SMMPanelRent's free tier up to 100 orders costs nothing. Check that you are happy with invoices after the month.
- Staying small for a long time on a tight budget. A $5 tier at ExcelPanel, Official Rental Panel or My Rental Panel is the lowest published price. Read what each tier includes before you compare it with a $10 plan.
- High volume where only the fee matters. An unlimited-orders plan at a flat price is hard to beat on paper. Ask how "unlimited" is defined.
- Already on Perfect Panel. Moving costs time. Compare your current bill with your real volume first; the Perfect Panel alternative page has a calculator.
- Want DDoS protection, backups and support on the entry plan, prepaid. That is where we fit. We cost more than the $5 tiers at small volume and less than Perfect Panel at every volume.
Questions to Ask Any Rental Panel Provider
Ask these before you pay, and get the answers in writing:
- Is the price prepaid, or invoiced after the month? What happens if an invoice is late?
- Which orders count toward my limit: canceled, partial, refills, drip-feed runs, subscriptions?
- What happens on the day I pass my plan's limit? Are new orders blocked, or is the next plan charged?
- Is DDoS protection on my plan, or only on higher ones?
- How many providers can I connect, and can I use any provider with a standard API?
- Can I export my users, balances and orders if I leave?
- Where do I get support, and how fast is the first answer on my plan?
Our answers: prepaid; orders per month on the plan; upgrade whenever you need, applied straight away; protection on every plan; 5, 20 or unlimited providers by plan; support response targets are 0 to 2 hours on Starter, 0 to 1 hour on Pro and 0 to 15 minutes plus calls on Business.
Mistakes We See When People Compare Panels
- Comparing entry prices only. Run the numbers at the volume you hope to reach in six months, not today.
- Ignoring the provider limit. Two providers at launch becomes five within months, because services fail and you need backups. Our Starter allows 5.
- Forgetting what the panel does not include. No rental plan includes services. Your provider balance and payment gateway fees are separate on every platform. Our post on the cost to run an SMM panel puts numbers on them.
- Choosing on the theme screenshot. Open each demo, place a test order, and look at the admin side as well.
If you are also weighing a self-hosted script against all of these, rental panel vs SMM panel script covers that choice, and the pricing page has our plans in one place.
