This includes exclusive stories and live links for fans and their followers. Payment will be monthly and ranges from $ 0.99-99.99 $. While the creators will have in addition to the blue teak and a purple teak which indicates the paid creations.
The founder of Meta, the company he owns and Instagram, said: “I’m happy to create features specifically that pay creators for their creative work and put it to use for other creators.”
Instagram and Facebook are not the only apps testing this feature, and the Twitter platform has introduced a similar “Super Follows” option.
