Same parent company, very different buyer mindset. Treating both platforms identically usually underperforms on at least one of them.
Instagram Buyers Are Led By Visuals First
Aesthetic and story sell on Instagram before price does. A great photo and caption can carry a sale even at a premium price.
Facebook Buyers Are More Price And Convenience Led
Marketplace shoppers are comparing listings side by side, so clear pricing and fast replies matter more than visual polish.
What Stays The Same Either Way
Regardless of platform, the checkout experience should be just as fast. A Payge storefront, built from one photo in about 30 seconds, works as your link on both, so you're not maintaining two separate selling systems for two different audiences. Flat 5% per order across either.
