Bypass Instagram's 30% Apple Tax: 4 Simple Workarounds for Coaches and Course Creators
As a coach or course creator selling digital products and services, Instagram can be a powerful platform for marketing your offers and generating leads. However, with Apple's recent implementation of a 30% commission on in-app purchases, your profits can take a significant hit if you're not careful. Fortunately, there are several workarounds that can help you bypass this tax and keep more of your hard-earned revenue.
In this blog post, we'll dive into four simple strategies to bypass Instagram's 30% Apple tax, so you can maximize your profits and reinvest more into scaling your business with paid advertising.
1. Boost Content from Instagram.com
One of the easiest ways to avoid the Apple tax is to boost your Instagram posts from the desktop version (Instagram.com) instead of the mobile app. By doing so, you automatically bypass the in-app purchase system, which triggers the 30% commission. While it may not be as streamlined as using the mobile app, this approach can save you a significant amount of money, especially if you're consistently boosting posts for engagement or promotion.
2. Add Prepaid Funds to Your Ad Account
Another effective strategy is to create a Meta Business account and add prepaid funds to your ad account from the payment settings. This way, you're paying for boosted posts and ads directly from your business account, bypassing the in-app purchase system altogether.
Setting up a business account is simple and straightforward. Once you've created the account, you can link it to your personal profile and follow the prompts to add payment details. By funding your ad account directly, you can avoid the 30% Apple tax and enjoy the full benefits of your advertising spend.
3. Use the Meta Business Suite App
Download the Meta Business Suite app, log in with your business account, and you'll have a seamless way to boost your Instagram content or turn your posts into ads without incurring the Apple tax. The Meta Business Suite app is designed specifically for business owners and marketers, providing a streamlined experience for managing your Instagram advertising efforts.
4. Create Ads from the Meta Ads Manager
For those who prefer a more robust and data-driven approach, the Meta Ads Manager is an excellent option. This powerful tool gives you complete control over your ad campaigns, allowing you to create, optimize, and analyze your Instagram ads with granular insights and reporting.
While the Ads Manager may have a steeper learning curve compared to the mobile app or Business Suite, it's well worth the investment if you're serious about scaling your coaching or course business with paid advertising. With access to advanced targeting, split testing, and performance metrics, you can make data-driven decisions to maximize your return on investment.
By implementing these four workarounds, you can bypass Instagram's 30% Apple tax and keep more of your hard-earned revenue in your pocket. Whether you're just starting with Instagram marketing or you're an experienced seller looking to optimize your funnel, these strategies will help you protect your profits and reinvest them back into growing your business.
