Instagram adds new features every so often in order to make it so that the average user has something new and exciting to look forward to in terms of the kind of enjoyment they want to obtain from specific aspects of their overall social media usage. One of the new features that is coming in is the option to add a fundraiser to your profile, and the fact of the matter is that this might be quite huge in a lot of ways.
These days if you want to start a fundraiser you would have to go to sites like GoFundMe or Kickstarter, and the fact of the matter is that it can be difficult to integrate these campaigns into the kind of work that you may be trying to do at the end of the day.
With all of that having been said and out of the way, integration of fundraisers into social media can be huge because of the fact that it can make it so that the fundraising as well as the raising of awareness can all be done from a single location, something that quite surprisingly was not the case previously in all that many ways all in all.
It remains to be seen whether this fundraiser feature will only work for charity or legitimate causes or if anyone can use it in the manner that they use Venmo or CashApp. If it is the latter then it will be a big change because of the fact that it would make the transfer of money far easier than ever before, but it is far more likely that it would end up being the former and a big part of the reason why that is the case has to do with the fact that it would be quite difficult to regulate at such a large scale.
