Instagram Reels publishing to Instagram Creator accounts
We cannot wait for all the high-quality content you will publish and schedule through our platform.
What this means to you
Historically with Repurpose, in order to publish to Instagram you had to use an Instagram Business account. Now, Meta is allowing all Instagram Creator accounts to publish directly to Reels through Repurpose.
With a creator account,` you may have access to features just for creators such as: Instagram Subscriptions, Branded Content Partnerships and creator marketplace. Check all the features here.
