Table of contents
A day with inDM
The haul reel is full of "where's the top from?"
Everyone who commented LINKS already has the full product list: each item on its own tappable card.
A story try-on gets replies
Each reply receives the DM with your code and link, no screenshots, no retyping.
An old video finds a new audience
Its automation never turned off; the commissions link is still answering for you.
You check what converted
On Growth, DM click-through by keyword shows which products actually move, so tomorrow's content is better aimed.
What you'll actually use
Keyword per product
LINKS, SHOES, CODE. Each keyword carries its own DM and link card.
Link cards
The DM delivers a titled, tappable card, not a raw URL someone has to copy.
Click-through analytics, on Growth
See which posts and keywords drive actual taps, not just comments.
Email capture
Turn one-time commission clicks into a list you own, ask for the email before the link when it fits.
Contacts you keep
Every engaged shopper is a contact you can export. The audience stays yours.

Do affiliate links work in automated DMs?
Yes. The DM carries any link you choose, including affiliate URLs and storefronts, on a tappable card with your title. Your affiliate platform keeps counting commissions exactly as before.
Can different keywords send different products?
Yes. Each automation has its own keyword, DM, and link, so SHOES sends the shoes, GLOW sends the skincare, and your analytics show which one earns.
Is this allowed under Instagram's rules?
Yes, inDM works through Meta's official API and only messages people who engaged first. That's the compliant version of exactly what you're doing by hand today.
