Instagram Shop is free and native, which sounds like the obvious choice. The catch is everything required before a buyer even sees a 'shop now' tag.
Setup And Approval
Instagram Shop needs a connected catalog and commerce eligibility review before tags go live, a process that can take days and isn't always transparent about rejections.
Payge's Setup
One photo, AI builds the page and checkout, live in about 30 seconds. No catalog, no review queue.
Conversion Once Live
Instagram Shop tags lead into Instagram's own checkout flow, which works fine but offers little room to customize the buying experience. A Payge page is yours, fully focused on the one product, with nothing else competing for the buyer's attention. Flat 5% per order either way you cut setup time.
