\n<\/strong>For every 20,000 square feet covered, you\u2019ll pay approximately $5 per hour used. You can purchase your geofilter for up to thirty days, and you cannot go over 5 million square feet. To put that into perspective, the most you can spend on one geofilter is $180,000! Wowza.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>You should give at least two business days for your geofilter to be approved by Snapchat. Although you can submit one day before, it\u2019s best to play it safe. If you\u2019re planning on playing with Snapchat\u2019s guidelines, make sure you give yourself even more time for approval in case\u00a0 Snapchat decides to turn down your submission. Make sure you plan ahead!<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>Submitting your geofilter is simple. Just go to Snapchat\u2019s website, make an account, and log in. Next step: make your filter. You can use Photoshop, Illustrator, or any other photo editing program. Alternatively, Snapchat provides templates that you can play around with as well. If you decide to make your own, keep in mind that your files must be 1080px by 1920px, under 300KB in size, and saved as a .PNG with a transparent background.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>Once your geofilter has expired, you can look at the \u201cmetrics\u201d tab on your account to see the number of uses, and views. Keep in mind that the views will continue to change, even after your filter has expired, depending on how many people view your filter in previous snaps and stories.
