1. To ensure fairness, each account can only bind one repository. If you want to get stars for multiple repositories, please register additional accounts.

2. To prevent frequent operations from causing abnormalities in your account, there is a limit of 5 times per hour for Star, Watch, Fork, and Follow actions.

3. After starring others, there will be a delay before receiving stars back.

4. If the repository address changes, please register a new account to bind the repository.

Star, watch & fork others' projects

Browse repos other developers have submitted and interact with the ones that interest you. Every action is performed by your real GitHub account, not a bot.

Step 3

Get the same back, automatically

Other members reciprocate on your repo. Stars trickle in over hours and days - natural, organic, and from real developers with real commit history.

No, and the difference matters. When you buy GitHub stars, they come from dead accounts with no commits, no followers, and no history. GithubStarMate stars come from real developers who star you because you starred someone else - the same social proof, without the risk of a purchase.

Does this violate GitHub's terms of service?

GitHub prohibits automated activity and bot networks. GithubStarMate is mutual support between real human developers. Every star, watch, and fork is performed by a real person's authenticated session.

Will my GitHub account get flagged or banned?

We rate-limit each account to 5 actions per hour for stars, watches, and forks. That mirrors the natural pace of an engaged developer browsing GitHub.

How fast will I see stars on my repository?

Most members see their first reciprocal stars within 24 hours and steady activity within the first week. We deliberately do not deliver stars in instant batches.

Why does GithubStarMate need a GitHub token?

To star, watch, or fork repositories on your behalf when you choose to. You can revoke the token from your GitHub settings at any time.

Is GithubStarMate free?

Yes. The platform is free for individual developers. The only requirement is that you participate: you give stars to receive stars.

Does it work for established repositories too?

Yes. The platform fits both early-stage projects and ongoing growth for established repositories that want steady community momentum.

What happens if someone takes stars without giving any back?

Accounts that consistently take without reciprocating get suspended. The platform only works because every member participates honestly.
