Two updates for Klear this week to help remove the barriers to growing your influencer network!
Product Gifting for Any Influencer
Now you can send a gift to any influencer in your campaigns without needing to send a campaign invite or requiring them to create a Klear account!
This is especially helpful for campaigns focused on product gifting, where you don’t need to send influencers other campaign assets through Klear (such as agreements, tracking links, etc.). Without the blockers with accounts setup, you can engage more influencers and speed up your process with less back and forth.

Note: This option is only available for customers with a Shopify integration.
Track Instagram Stories from Unauthenticated Influencers
Klearwater customers with both Klear and Engage can now leverage owned connections in Engage to track and report on Instagram Stories from unauthenticated influencers in their Klear campaigns 🤩
Enforcing influencer authentication and tracking Instagram Stories are two of the biggest challenges influencer marketers face today. This new workflow:
- Saves time and resources spent live monitoring Instagram accounts and chasing down files from influencers.
- Removes barriers to work with more influencers
- Helps capture metrics for Instagram Stories like post count, reach, and EMV, enabling more comprehensive campaign reporting
This release is available now for Klearwater customers (with both Klear + Engage), and builds on the exciting integrations bringing Klear and Engage closer together
