FAQ
Who is Snapchat actually good for?
Businesses targeting Gen Z and younger millennials — bars, restaurants near college campuses, gyms, dance studios, ice cream shops, fast casual.
Do I need a custom lens?
No, but it helps. A branded Snapchat lens costs $300–$1,500 to build and works for months. We can recommend lens studios.
How do you verify a snap was actually posted?
Snapchat's API is more limited than Instagram's. We verify Spotlight posts directly; for stories, we ask customers to share their story link or screenshot, then sample-verify.
Is Snapchat still relevant in 2026?
For specific demographics, yes — especially 13–24 year-olds and certain college markets. For everyone else, prioritize Instagram and TikTok.
Can I run lens-based campaigns without paying for a custom lens?
Yes — you can use Snapchat's existing community lenses and just track usage at your location.
