Instagram is adding gifts with Reels. Giving gifts has the purpose of assisting creators in getting paid by fans of the content they share.
A select few creators in the US will be the first to have access to this option, and those who qualify will have the option to enable getting stars in their Professional dashboard.
By purchasing Instagram Stars, users can offer gifts to one another. There will be more in the near future.

Instagram Reels achievements

Creating more Reels and improving their content is encouraged by this very cool option.

So far, there have been three achievements:

•  Creating more than one reel per week to maintain their streak of creativity 
• Participating in the conversation by using trendy audio and reel effects. 
•  Working with another creator through Remix, Collabs, and ‘Add Yours’ stickers 

The creator will be notified when a new achievement has been reached and will be able to read more about what they earned and what to do next to unlock the next achievement.
