In order to offer administrators more options to engage with their audience and boost the visibility of their posts, we have added a new type of giveaway on Instagram: the Instagram Story giveaway. 

In this way, the new application “Instagram stories Giveaway” allows you to realize aleatory draws among all users who interact via Instagram stories.  

Specifically, the new application allows you to organize two different types of sweepstakes:

1. Story replies giveaway: Allows you to carry out a raffle among users who have responded to one or multiple Stories of your Instagram profile during a specific period. You will also be able to filter the answers that will be imported into the draw by the use of a certain hashtag.
2. Story mentions giveaway: Allows to draw a prize among all the users who shared a Story on their public Instagram profile mentioning your brand during a certain period.

With Easypromos you can automate the entire process and guarantee the transparency of the draw result.

The application includes the following features:

• Import in real time: You will be able to monitor in real time the new answers or mentions of the users.
• Import of past interactions: You can import responses or past mentions that were shared in the last 7 days max. 
• Configuration of an automatic thank you message: You can program and send an automatic thank you message that the participants will receive when interacting with the story.
• This application is available only to clients with a Basic pro or higher plan. 
• For the Story Mentions Giveaway, only participations done by users with a public Instagram profile can be imported.
