sponsorAdvertise on my Instagram.
Your Instagram has more places to sell than a single sponsored post. Pin the spots on a screenshot of your profile: bio link, story frames, a feed post, a highlight cover. Get your price for each and list it. Brands find it and ask for a spot.

How to monetize your Instagram
- List it. Upload a photo of your Instagram, mark each spot and pick how you bill: per week, month, event or post. We set the price from reach, market and demand.
- Get requests. Brands find it in Browse and message you. Accept or decline.
- Get paid. The brand pays when you accept. You are paid after you post proof that the logo is up.
- Or run an auction. Share a link and let brands bid. Start a Instagram auction.
Get paid to put ads on your Instagram
Post screenshots of the live post or story with the date visible, plus your Insights screen for that piece. For a bio link, add a screenshot of your profile at the start and end of the week.
Tips
- Use Instagram's paid partnership label and tag the brand. It shows the sponsor in Insights too, and you still need a clear #ad or 'paid partnership' in the caption under FTC rules.
- Sell story frames and bio links separately from feed posts. Small brands can afford a story long before they can afford a permanent post.
- Check Meta's branded content policies before you accept a sponsor. Some product types are banned or restricted in branded content.
Questions
Do I need a business or creator account?
You need a professional account to use the paid partnership label. A personal account can still post sponsored content as long as you disclose it clearly.
How is this different from Instagram's own bonuses and subscriptions?
Instagram's programs pay you from the platform and depend on eligibility. Here a brand pays you directly for a spot you choose, and the price is set by bidding.
Can I sell a spot on content I already posted?
Yes. A caption edit or a pinned comment on an older post works, but be clear with the brand that it is an existing post, and add the disclosure when you edit.
How do brands find my Instagram?
List it once. Brands browse spots by type, city and price and message you through SponsorMySpot. Your email stays private.
Who sets the price?
Our pricing engine, like a ride app. It prices each spot from what it is, how many people see it and the market you are in, and the price rises when brands are asking for that kind of spot near you. Owners pick how they bill: per week, month, event or post.
When do I get paid?
The brand pays when you accept their request. You are paid after you post proof that the logo is up. Payouts go to your bank through Stripe. The fee is 8 percent.
Can brands bid against each other instead?
Yes. Run an auction: each spot opens at your start price and any brand can take it by paying double. Cards are held, not charged, until bidding closes.
