No, I didn’t write that title just to get you to open this post. You can actually earn from Instagram Reels in India.
Instagram itself pays you, not via a third-party app or platform.
To support and encourage content creators, Instagram has started giving out cash prizes to content creators who post engaging reels consistently.
As of now, Instagram has not spoken clearly about how the creators are chosen.
There is a bonus program in which creators get paid for posting reels, that is different from the one in India.
For Instagrammers in India, the bonus program isn’t available. But there is another way to earn cash prizes starting from Rs. 10,000 and up to Rs. 1,00,000.
This was launched back on 1st October 2021. Winners are chosen every 2 weeks.
Let’s look at how you can earn those extra bucks.
