Big News for Athletes: Connecting Instagram Just Got Way Easier — And That Means More NIL Deals
If you’re an athlete looking to secure more NIL Deals, today’s update is a game-changer.
At MOGL, we just rolled out one of our most impactful platform improvements yet — and it directly answers the #1 question we’ve received from athletes:
“How can I connect my Instagram without jumping through hoops?”
Well, now you can.
Starting today, athletes can connect their Instagram to MOGL using just a Professional account. No more confusing Facebook business integrations. No more tech headaches. Just a smoother path to monetizing your name, image, and likeness.
Why This Matters
Instagram is the #1 platform for athlete influencers. It’s where brands are scouting talent. It’s where your audience lives. And most importantly, it’s where you build your brand.
With this update, MOGL removes the biggest barrier stopping athletes from tapping into the world of influencer marketing: a clunky Instagram connection process.
Now, in just a few clicks, athletes can sync their IG presence directly with MOGL on both web and iOS, instantly opening the door to:
- More brand deals
- Better visibility for your content
- A streamlined experience to track and showcase your performance
Designed for Athletes, Built with Privacy in Mind
This wasn’t just a simple switch flip.
Meta’s requirements around account permissions, data privacy, and business account types are notoriously strict (and let’s be honest — confusing). But our product and engineering teams took on the challenge to simplify the entire process while maintaining MOGL’s high standards for data security and user control.
The result? Athletes can now focus on doing what they do best — showing up, showing out, and securing NIL Deals — without having to play tech support just to connect a social account.
What You Need to Do
If you’re already on MOGL and haven’t connected your Instagram, now’s the time. Just make sure your Instagram is set to a Professional account (either Creator or Business) and head over to your profile to link it. It takes less than a minute.
Not on MOGL yet?
Join thousands of other college athletes already earning from their influence. We make it easy to connect with top brands looking for real athlete voices.
The Bottom Line
More NIL Deals start with visibility.
This new Instagram connection update is about reducing friction, building your personal brand faster, and creating real earning opportunities — because you’ve worked too hard not to get paid for your influence.
Welcome to a new era of athlete empowerment.
This is just the beginning.
