Have Instagram business or creator account but still can’t connect it to the Vamp app?

If you have an Instagram business or creator account but still can't seem to connect to the Vamp app this might be because you haven't linked your Facebook page to your Instagram account. 

If you haven't got an Instagram business account yet, follow these instructions.  

Brace yourself, things are about to get just a lil technical 🔧🙈

You'll need to link your Facebook page to your Instagram business account. ✅ 

(Note: a Facebook Business Page is not the same as a Facebook profile).

First up, make sure that you have a Facebook page for your Instagram business or creator account to link to. If you don't have a Facebook Page, Instagram automatically creates you a dormant Page, when you sign up for an Instagram business or creator account. This Page also needs to be "claimed" so that it links to your Instagram business or creator account. We'll take you through it step-by-step below.

To link your Instagram Business or Creator Account to a Facebook page that you already manage:

• Go to your profile and tap .
• TapSettings.
• Tap Meta - Accounts Center

• Tap the Set up Accounts Center option. If you are already logged in to your Facebook account, it will ask you to just simply tap Continue. If thats not the Facebook account you want to link, tap the Not you? option to log in into the correct account.

   

• Now you should be able to see your accounts connected in the Accounts Center

.

Now, To claim a Facebook Page, jump into your Facebook account and link your Instagram account to your facebook page. If you don't have a page created yet, go ahead and create one. 

  .

• Once your page is created, go into the page, tap Settings and then tap Instagram. Make sure you are an admin to this page (In case someone else created the page). You can check that by clicking the Page Roles option under Settings.
