Custom Snapchat Filters For Any Event!

Imagine tapping into a platform where users share almost 9,000 photos every second and view videos over 10 billion times per day. This is the kind of reach you get with Snapchat, a fast-paced social media platform boasting a growth rate of 400 percent between 2015 and 2016.

Originally designed for quick photos called Snaps meant to disappear after being viewed, Snapchat now allows users to save and share the photos they take. This expands the reach of Snaps beyond the platform to other social media channels, allowing you to connect with a wide audience whether you’re a casual user or a business owner. Snapchat users can also create “stories” by combining a series of snaps taken over the course of a single day to share even more with their followers.

Every Snap or video on Snapchat can be overlaid with special images or effects called filters. By swiping left or right after taking a Snap, you can add unique details like time and date to the image.

Geofilters are connected to specific locations and are only available to users within the filter’s set range. This adds an element of excitement to the Snapchat experience as you travel from one place to another. The chance to discover new filters and be part of a bigger experience can draw Snapchat users to local events and encourage them to spread the word to their friends.

Snapchat makes on-demand geofilters available for a fee to any user with the design capabilities to produce and submit a standout filter. It takes a particular knack for creative marketing to create a filter that will really stand out and get a lot of use. Professional design services will help you create a filter that reflects the unique flavor of your event or locale. A well-designed filter can send a targeted message to users and viewers, whether you’re hyping a store opening, encouraging charity participation, or simply celebrating a private party.

Every custom Geofilter is linked to a specific location or event using a “geofence.” Once your filter is created, you draw a shape around the desired area of access on Snapchat’s map. Users entering this area, which can range from 20,000 to 5 million square feet, gain access to the filter and can add it to their Snaps as long as they stay within the geofence.

When you order one of our custom Geofilters, we’ll set the geofence using to the coordinates you provide. Your filter will be available for up to 30 days depending on the date range you set.

Snapchat has some specific rules for filters to prevent inappropriate content from appearing on the app. Filters submitted to Snapchat take about one business day to be reviewed and approved or rejected, meaning you should leave a little time before your event in case your submission doesn’t make the cut. Working with a professional takes the guesswork out of filter creation, ensuring every custom image is up to Snapchat’s standards and is available right when you need it.

Accessing filters on Snapchat requires users to turn on location services on their devices and enable the “Filters” option in the app. Some filters will ask for permission to access a user’s location before they can be applied.

Filters are available as soon as a Snap is taken. With a quick swipe right or left, you can choose a standard overlay or a Geofilter based on your location. If you’ve created your own custom Geofilter, all Snapchat users within the geofence will see it as an option as they cycle through available adornments for their photos.

You can only reach so many people from your physical location. Even with a solid social media presence, it’s hard to leverage location-based advertising. Using Snapchat Geofilters lets you expand your influence with custom branded images appearing on Snaps posted by a diverse group of potential customers. These Snaps may be saved by users and shared on other social platforms, giving you plenty of bang for your advertising buck.

No matter what kind of event you’re promoting, our custom filter designs can get you the results you desire. Showcase a new product, announce your participation in a trade show or grab attention for your next in-store event with an eye-catching Geofilter.

Snapchat is the perfect platform for reaching millennials. About 63 percent of Snapchat users are between the ages of 18 and 34, and 47 percent in the youngest bracket are looking at Snaps and stories from brands every day.

Thirty percent of millennial internet users access Snapchat on a regular basis, so you have the potential to use custom Geofilters to reach a large and influential audience of young consumers without spending the majority of your marketing dollars.
