Meta launches paid subscriptions for Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp

Meta announced that users can now pay for subscription services on its core apps: Instagram will offer “Subscriptions” that let creators charge followers for exclusive posts, Stories and Reels; Facebook will roll out a similar subscription model for creators and groups; and WhatsApp is testing a paid “Business API” tier where companies pay per message to reach customers. The moves aim to diversify revenue beyond advertising by giving creators and businesses a direct monetization channel. Views Nigeria
