FAQ
Do I need an Instagram Business account?
Yes — Instagram's API only allows posting analytics and tag tracking through Business or Creator accounts. Switching from Personal takes 30 seconds in the app.
How do you verify a customer actually posted?
We use Instagram's Graph API to confirm the post or story exists, that your handle was tagged, and that the account is real (not a freshly-created throwaway).
What happens if they delete the post after redeeming the perk?
Social Perks monitors active campaigns for 30 days. If a post is deleted within the bonus window, the perk is flagged and you can choose to reverse the reward.
Can I require a minimum follower count?
Yes. You can set follower-count tiers — base perk for anyone, +5% for 500+, +10% for 2K+, up to +25% for 50K+.
Is this compliant with FTC rules?
Yes. Every campaign brief includes the required #ad or #partner disclosure. Customers must use the hashtag for the post to count, which keeps you on the safe side of FTC endorsement rules.
