Short answer: BoardBooster was a Pinterest tool known for scheduling and looping pins. As far as we know it closed years ago (reportedly in 2018), so please verify before you plan around it. Pin Magic is not a scheduler or looper. It creates new pins and blog images from your posts. If you miss looping, remember that Pinterest now favours fresh pins. Make several new ones per post, then publish them with any scheduler.

What is BoardBooster?

BoardBooster was a Pinterest-only tool that many bloggers used years ago. Its best-known feature was looping: it re-pinned your older pins to boards on a schedule so they kept circulating. It also helped schedule pins and manage board activity.

As far as we know, BoardBooster stopped operating around 2018. If you found this page searching for it, you likely want a tool that does a similar job today. That depends on which part you miss: scheduling and looping, or getting more pins out of your content.

Where each tool is strong

BoardBooster is strong at

  • A tool built only for Pinterest, so the workflow was simple.
  • Looping, which kept older pins moving without extra design work.
  • Scheduling that saved time compared with pinning by hand.
  • A clear focus that many early Pinterest bloggers valued.

Pin Magic is strong at

  • Paste a post link in Studio and get 10+ new pins built on 100+ templates.
  • Your own photos, colours and fonts, exported at 1000 x 1500 PNG.
  • The Extension makes blog images with Flow, inserts them into WordPress and adds internal links.
  • One flat price, with a lifetime option.

What to keep in mind about BoardBooster

Looking for a replacement means knowing what changed and what each tool really does.

  • BoardBooster may no longer be available. Verify its status before you plan around it.
  • Looping repeated old pins. Pinterest has since put more weight on new images, so repeating alone may not be enough. See fresh pins on Pinterest.
  • Pin Magic does not schedule or loop. It makes the pins. You publish them with Pinterest itself or another scheduler.
  • Pin Magic has no analytics. Use Pinterest Analytics to track results.

What replaces looping today?

Looping solved a real problem: you made a pin once and it kept working. The modern version of that idea is different. Instead of repeating the same pin, you make several new pins for the same post and spread them out.

That gives Pinterest new images to show while still driving traffic to the same page. Making those pins by hand is slow, which is where Pin Magic helps: paste the link and get 10+ designs to choose from. Then use any scheduler or post by hand.

Pricing

Pin Magic: the Studio + Extension bundle is $10/month or $70/year, and the Extension alone is $5/month or $35/year. A one-time lifetime deal for the bundle costs $100. See pricing and the lifetime deal for live prices.

BoardBooster: we cannot give current pricing because it may be closed. If you want a scheduler to replace it, compare current options on their own sites. See best Pinterest automation tools.

Which one should you choose?

Choose Pin Magic if

  • You want more pins from each post, not just repeats.
  • You want blog images and internal links done in WordPress.
  • You are happy to publish with Pinterest or a separate scheduler.
  • You prefer a low flat price or a single payment.

Choose BoardBooster if

  • You can confirm it is still available and it meets your needs.
  • You only want to loop existing pins and nothing else.

Use both if

  • You want to schedule as well as create. Make pins in Pin Magic and pick a current scheduler such as Tailwind or Viraltag to publish them.

How to replace the BoardBooster workflow

This modern version keeps the time savings and adds fresh creative:

  1. List your best older posts. Check their keywords with Pinterest keyword research.
  2. Paste each link into Pin Magic Studio and generate 10+ pins.
  3. Pick the most different designs, change photos and text, and export 1000 x 1500 PNG files.
  4. Write titles and descriptions with the free title generator and description generator.
  5. Publish a few each week with Pinterest or a current scheduler, instead of dumping them all at once.

Frequently asked questions

What happened to BoardBooster?

As far as we know it stopped operating around 2018. We are not affiliated with it and cannot confirm details, so please check independent sources.

What is the best BoardBooster alternative?

It depends on what you used it for. For scheduling and recycling, compare current schedulers such as Tailwind or RecurPost. For making new pins and blog images, use Pin Magic. Many people use one of each.

Can Pin Magic loop pins like BoardBooster?

No. Pin Magic does not schedule or loop. It creates new pins and blog images. You can then publish them with any tool.

Is looping still a good idea?

Pinterest tends to favour new creative, so repeating the same pin may help less than it once did. Making several new pins per post is a safer approach. Policies change, so test on your account. See fresh pins on Pinterest.

Is automation safe on Pinterest now?

Use tools that connect through Pinterest's official routes, avoid sharing your password and keep a natural pace. Read Pinterest automation best practices.
