A good Instagram giveaway post says what you’re giving away and how to enter in the first line or two, then gives the end date, who can enter, how the winner is picked, and a link to the full rules. Below are 10 caption templates you can copy for different kinds of giveaways, plus the parts every post needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Swap the [brackets] for your details, add an emoji or two if that fits your brand voice, and keep the rest short. Most people read the first two lines and the steps, nothing else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>What every giveaway post needs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Whatever the template, check your caption has these six things:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. The prize, up front.<\/strong> “Win our [prize]” in the first line, so it shows before “more”.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. How to enter, as numbered steps.<\/strong> Two or three steps at most.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. The end date and time, with time zone.<\/strong> “Ends Friday, March 12, 11:59 p.m. ET”.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Who can enter.<\/strong> Age and country, for example “18+, US only”.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. How and when you’ll pick the winner.<\/strong> “Winner drawn at random and announced in stories on [date].”<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. A link to the full rules and the Instagram disclaimer.<\/strong> Instagram’s promotion guidelines ask you to make clear that Instagram doesn’t sponsor or run your giveaway, and your full rules should say that each entrant releases Instagram from responsibility.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
