Snapchat Advertising

Snapchat is an app that allows people to send photos, videos, and text messages that can be viewed by their friends for up to ten seconds before disappearing. You may have heard of it because of its unique disappearing nature, but the popularity of the app comes from its playful and fun features. One of those features was augmented-reality graphics that could be fixed to a person’s face or surroundings with animations that could be triggered when a person opens their mouth, raises their eyebrows, smiles or puckers into a kiss.
Snapchat is one of the most used social media platforms in the India. It’s popular with millennials due to its unique features, like filters that enhance photos and videos, geofilters that allow users to send snaps showing their location, and stories that are shared for 24 hours and can be viewed by friends. The platform also offers custom Snapchat Geofilters for events, which can help promote your brand or business at a relatively low cost.

Snapchat Advertising


The use of augmented reality made Snapchat one of the most creative social media platforms in its early days. The advertisements were very engaging and creative as well. The user experience was also appealing – especially to millennials. This made Snapchat become one of the fastest growing social media platforms today with 41% daily reach of all 18-34 year olds in the India alone.
Snapchat Advertising offers four ad-targeting categories that use its own audience data to aim ads. These targeting options are only available for Snap Ads.

Add-ons

Advertisers can create more of a 360-degree effect by attaching a World Lens to their Sponsored Lens campaigns so that people can augment their surroundings using their phone’s rear-facing camera. Similar to front-facing Sponsored Lenses, World Lens animations can be triggered when a person taps their phone’s screen or points their camera at an augmented object.

2. Sponsored Geo-filter

Illustrated overlays that people can put atop the photos and videos they share privately in messages with friends or publicly as posts added to their Stories.
