Advertise your products on Snapchat

Snapchat is a multimedia messaging app used globally. Users can take a picture with their phone, select recipients from their contacts, customize the image and decide how long they want the message to be visible for. The messages’ temporary nature is the one feature that makes Snapchat different from other messaging apps. Advertising on Snapchat requires the use of Snapchat Ads. There are various types of advertising including small videos that will appear between Stories or filters with logos and much more. Within the interface they are called Snap Ads, Collection Ads, Filters, Product Ads and Story Ads.
