Ads on Instagram Reels

You can enable ads on your Instagram Reels. When users watch your Reels, they’ll see these ads, and you’ll earn a portion of the ad revenue.

Sponsored Posts

Brands pay you to create posts that promote their products or services. You’ll need to have a significant following and a proven engagement rate. Brands typically provide guidelines for the message they want you to convey.

Affiliate Marketing

You promote or critique a product and receive a commission for every sale made through your referral link. This requires a partnership with brands or joining an affiliate network.

Instagram Shop

If you have your own products, you can create an Instagram Shop. This involves setting up a business account, connecting it to a Facebook page, adding your product catalog, and setting up Instagram Shopping.

Branded Content

This involves partnering with brands to create content that subtly promotes their products or services. It’s important to stay authentic and only partner with brands that align with your  personal brand.

Badges in Live

When you go live, your viewers can purchase badges to support you. The badges appear next to their names, giving them visibility, and you earn a certain amount per badge.

Subscriptions

You can offer exclusive content to your followers for a monthly fee, providing a steady stream of income. This feature is currently being tested and is not available to all users.

Milestone Bonuses

Instagram offers bonuses when you reach certain milestones, such as hitting a specific number of followers or achieving a certain level of engagement.
