Snapchat: In today's time, social media is not just a means of entertainment, but it has become a strong means of earning. While earlier platforms like Instagram and YouTube were known for earning money, now Snapchat is also giving great earning opportunities to the users. If you also want to earn thousands of rupees every month, then know some effective ways to earn money from Snapchat.

What is Snapchat and how does it pay?

Snapchat is a popular social media app in which users connect with others through short videos (Snaps), stories and chat. Snapchat has launched a special "Spotlight" feature for content creators in recent years. In this, money is given to the viral videos of users, just like monetization is done for YouTube Shorts or Instagram Reels.
