Instagram Subscriptions allow you to monetize by offering exclusive content and benefits to your most engaged followers at a monthly fee. Your followers can subscribe through an in-app purchase on their mobile device. You can manage your subscriptions in the Instagram App.
Benefits of Instagram Subscriptions
With Subscriptions, you can create exclusive Instagram content and offer benefits with:
- Subscriber Lives
- Subscriber stories
- Subscriber badges
- Subscriber posts
- Subscriber reels
- Subscriber social channels
- Subscriber broadcast channels
Once you enable Subscriptions, your followers will see a notification in their activity feed and on your profile so they can subscribe to you. We’ll feature your Subscription under the
Subscriptions tab in the
Followers and
Following page. If they tap
See all, additional Subscriptions are
recommended to them.
You’ll be able to identify your subscribers with a subscriber badge
, which will appear in comments and in your primary and requests folders. Followers who are not subscribed can also see a subscriber’s badge
when they comment on your feed posts. If they click on the badge
, they’ll be prompted to subscribe.
Note: Subscriber stories appear before regular stories for followers with an active Subscription. Subscriber posts will be boosted in personalized feeds, but may not always appear before regular posts. For example, all feed posts, including subscriber posts, in the Following and Favorites feed will appear in chronological order.
Although you can continue to use music from our music library in non-subscription content, that music is generally not available for subscriber-only content. For subscriber-only content, you can only use music from
Meta's Sound Collection or music that you own and are specifically authorized to use. See
Creator Terms of Use for more details.
Enabling Instagram Subscriptions
If you see Subscriptions appear in the professional dashboard, you can
enable Subscriptions and set your monthly price.
Note: If you change your monthly price, it will only apply to new subscribers and existing subscribers will continue to pay the existing subscription fee.
In the professional dashboard, you can also manage your list of subscribers and edit your payout account.
