Many small businesses on Instagram already field questions about products, arrange payments, and offer customer support via DMs. Payments in messages will only be available to qualified accounts that have set up a business account on Instagram. <\/p>\n

The option to request a payment directly through messages cuts out the additional step of sending an invoice via other apps. By offering this step \u2014 along with tracking and customer service \u2014 Instagram is angling to be an app where shoppers find brands, browse for products, and complete purchases without ever leaving the app.<\/p>\n

Over the past several years, Instagram has morphed into an endless shopping destination, and many small businesses heavily rely on the app for visibility, marketing, and driving sales. The platform has made shopping a central part of the in-app experience, from the prominent placement of the Shop tab<\/a> to product tagging features that the company has extended<\/a> to average users. To compete with shopping on TikTok, Instagram added<\/a> e-commerce features to Reels, its short-form video product, in 2020.<\/p>\n

Evolving commerce \u2014 and how businesses communicate with potential customers \u2014 is an area Meta, Instagram\u2019s parent company, has signaled it\u2019s looking to for revenue. In an internal memo<\/a> shared with Meta employees in June, chief product officer Chris Cox identified business messaging as a key area to grow revenue as he warned of \u201cserious times\u201d at the company.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
