Adquira o username no Instagram
que a sua marca sempre deveria ter tido.

Not directly on Instagram, Meta’s Terms of Use prohibit buying, selling, or transferring any aspect of an account, including the username. The compliant route is to acquire the handle through Meta’s official channels (a trademark or impersonation report, or a negotiated, documented release from the current holder), which is exactly what Essentras manages for you.

Submit the handle for a free eligibility check, we identify the compliant path (trademark, impersonation, or negotiated release), we prepare the case and act as your liaison, and the handle is moved to your account. We never use account-transfer schemes or insider access, the conduct Meta litigated in the Folger case.

Buying a username is not a crime under any law, but a private sale or transfer violates Instagram’s Terms of Use and can get the account banned, you don’t own a username, you license it. The legitimate alternative is acquiring the handle through Meta’s official trademark and impersonation channels, which is what Essentras does. (Note: cybersquatting law / the ACPA applies to domain names, not social handles.)

A black-market account transfer can, because it violates Meta’s Terms and Meta can reverse it. Acquisitions through official trademark and impersonation channels do not create that violation, which is the entire reason this service exists. We never touch the prohibited transfer method.

On the open market, premium handles range from a few hundred dollars for an OG word up to $500,000 for a single character. Essentras acquisitions usually run $15,000 to $30,000 per handle depending on the case, with no broker commission and no per-message charges. Your payment is held in third-party escrow and returned to you in full if we can’t deliver the handle.

There is no public Meta form to "claim" a dormant handle. The only sanctioned levers are a trademark report (if the handle matches a mark you use in commerce) or an impersonation report. Meta may then remove or disable the account, but removal does not guarantee the handle is reassigned to you. Essentras handles the filing and monitors for a legitimate release.

If the handle is taken but the account is dormant, the path is a trademark or impersonation report. If it’s actively used and legitimately held, the only route is a discreet, negotiated release, which is where a broker matters, because owners inflate the price the moment an eager brand reveals itself. Essentras assesses which path applies in 24 hours, free.

Essentras completes eligible acquisitions in 0 to 10 days, most in under a week. The free eligibility check gives you a realistic timeline for your specific handle before you commit anything.

You never wire money to a stranger. Funds are held in third-party escrow and released only when the handle is verified in your control, every engagement is governed by a signed agreement, and you’re working with a named, accountable company, not an anonymous forum account or an unaccountable middleman. That is the opposite of how the resale marketplaces operate.

You get every dollar back. We assess feasibility before you commit, and your payment is held in third-party escrow and returned to you in full if the handle can’t be acquired.

No. Third-party username marketplaces and forums facilitate transactions that violate Meta’s Terms, expose you to escrow-bypass scams, and can be clawed back by Meta after the fact. Some have suffered data breaches that exposed buyers’ ID documents. Even the most reputable admits roughly 1 in 1,000 deals goes bad.

You can try, most people get ignored, ghosted, or quoted a wildly inflated price the moment they reveal who they are and how badly they want the handle. We negotiate discreetly so the holder doesn’t know a funded brand is behind it, and we route everything through escrow and a signed agreement.
