After being able to launch surveys to followers, being able to pose a quiz with up to four answers, insert music and song lyrics, now a new function is coming to Instagram Stories. We are talking about the donations, a new sticker that Instagram has already been testing for a few months and that seems to be reaching users en masse. A good way to collaborate with causes of all kinds and give visibility to accounts of organizations that fight to make the world a better place.
How to use Instagram Stories donations
As we say, this new function comes fully integrated as one more sticker. That is, as an element that we can add to our 15-second photo or video. As it happens with the questions, the music or the GIFs themselves.
Just take the photo or video and, once we have it on the screen, slide your finger from bottom to top. Or click on the stickers icon in the top bar, next to the text and the pencil. Among the collection of stickers is this button that is well labeled as DONATION
You just have to touch it and choose among the non-profit organizations that appear on the new screen that appears. Instagram offers suggestions to the user according to the accounts they follow, if they have an active donation channel on the social network.But there is also a search engine at the top to search for that cause or organization that interests us the most.
With this we can plant this label or sticker in the part of the story that we want. A sticker indicating that the donation will go directly to the organization. And, of course, it is accompanied by the button so that those who view the story can offer said donation
As a viewer of the story, you can click on the Donate button to open a small quick menu. In it you can choose quantities of 5, 10 and 20 euros, or establish another in the other button. With this, all that remains is to continue and confirm the contact details, as well as the bank details to carry out the process.
As a creator of this type of stickers, you can check the number of views of the content but also the number of euros collectedThis way you will know at all times how generous your followers are and how much you have helped the organization on duty to raise funds.
