"We want Instagram and Facebook to serve as a home base for creators to tell their story, grow and make a living. Whether they are just starting out or are further along in building their business – we want to support creators and give them ways to accomplish their goals."
Instagram is working on "Bonuses", a new way to monetize with your content"
Quote provided from Instagram
1. IN-APP AFFILIATE Tool
Instagram has announced a native affiliate tool that will allow Creators / Influencers to promote and endorse products and share them to their followers as they normally would, however they will now be able to EARN COMMISSION for the purchases they drive, in an affiliate relationship with the brands they work with, and all within the Instagram App.
This is currently in testing with a select amount of creators able to tag products from brands they work with. Currently if you come across a product that is an affiliate product from another Influencer or Creator it will have "eligible for commission" at the top of the post, so its clear that their purchase helps the creator and that the creator benefits from the purchase. Similar to Brand Partnering it is important for the sake of transparency and authenticity that the buyer knows that it is of financial benefit to the creator.
2. INSTAGRAM is making it easier to add an existing shop to your personal profile
