Safe daily friend request limit?

Hi there! For aged Facebook accounts, the safe limit is generally 20-30 friend requests per day to avoid triggering spam filters. However, Facebook doesn't publish exact limits and they vary based on account age, activity history, and engagement patterns.

Here's the safer approach: space out requests throughout the day (not all at once), engage with profiles before sending requests (like/comment on posts), and focus on accounts with mutual friends or shared interests. Check your "Activity Log" regularly to ensure nothing gets flagged.

If you get temporarily blocked from sending requests, stop immediately for 24-48 hours. I've seen accounts maintain good standing by staying under 20 requests daily and prioritizing quality connections over quantity.

How old is your account, and are you getting good acceptance rates on the requests you're currently sending?

For 6 months and up, around 10 to be safe but don't send them all at once.

While there is no absolute number, keeping your daily invites under 20 is a recommended practice. However, if you are using an account that has been active for a long time (old account), you can send around 20 to 30 invites per day to be safe. Sending more than this may result in restrictions.

I usually stay around 20 a day on older accounts and haven’t had any issues so far. if i increase to 30 will i get a warning?
 
What's your account's age? About 10 seems safe and less risky for your account, or you could slowly build up from 1-2 while mixing up the amounts
 
There’s no set limit, but with older accounts, sending around 10–20 connection requests daily at a steady pace is usually fine.
 
On aged Facebook accounts, keep it around 20–30 friend requests per day to stay safe. Gradually increase over time, and always mix in good activity like posts or comments.
 
I’d say around 20–30 friend requests per day on aged accounts to stay safe, maybe less if you're being cautious.
 
For aged, well-warmed accounts, keep it under 20–30 friend requests/day with natural intervals. Sudden spikes or automation triggers Meta’s trust checks—slow, human-like activity always scales safer.
 
I have found in practice that it is safe to make no more than 15 requests per day, distributing them organically throughout the day, for example, 5 in the morning, 5 in the afternoon, and 5 in the evening.
 
Start slow with aged accounts — just a few friend requests a day. Then level up gradually, but keep it under the platform’s radar. That way you’ll stay safe from flags or bans

You tried around 50 requests without any warning, right? I'm also rebuilding an old account but only dare to send like 10 a day for now

Yeah, 50 worked fine for me, but I ramped up slowly over a week or so. Starting with 10 ,15 a day like youre doing is smart just keep it natural and mix in some real interactions.
 
Maximum 20-30 Invitations: For old and long-active accounts, you can send 20 to 30 friend requests per day without too much risk. Maximum 5-10 Invitations: For new accounts, the number of invitations should be limited to 5 to 10 per day to avoid being considered spam by Facebook.

How many friend requests can you safely send per day on aged accounts?

For aged accounts, it’s safest to keep friend requests to around 20–30 per day and space them out. Focus on people who are more likely to accept, and avoid sending too many to strangers at once to prevent flags. Slow, steady growth works best
 
It's strange that some older accounts are limited to sending just one friend request, while others can send 30-50, or even more. Does anyone know what the rule is?
 
For aged accounts, keep it chill—around 50–80 requests/day max, spread out. Do a bit of liking/commenting too, or FB will flag you fast
 
It’s best not to focus on quantity. Facebook limits vary based on trust and activity. The safest way to keep your account looking natural is to ask for requests gradually and interact with people regularly.
