Before starting, make sure you have a Facebook Business Manager account and an Instagram Account already created.

If you do not have any of the above:

Create a Facebook Business Manager by visiting this link and creating an account.
After you've created your Facebook Business Manager, make sure you've connected your Business Manager to Socioh.
Create an Instagram Account by downloading the Instagram application on your smartphone via the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store.

Set up Instagram Product Tagging with Socioh's catalog:

Part 1: Convert Instagram Account from personal to business.

1) Check if your business complies with Instagram’s Commerce Eligibility Policies.

2) Convert your Instagram account to a business account.

Go to your business’s Instagram profile
Tap the icon with three horizontal bars.
Go to “Settings” -> “Account”.
Scroll down and you’ll find a “Switch to Professional Account” or “Switch to Business Account” button.
During the process, make sure to select “Business” after you’ve selected your Category.
Connect your Facebook account to your Instagram account on the next screen and complete the set-up process.

The Account review should only take a few days but may take more in some cases. We recommend getting in touch with Facebook Help for Businesses for better support with your account review.
