Facebook added a feature to make its Instagram platform a more efficient place for social media users to shop and buy, which Deutsche Bank believes "can drive monetization" further for the app.
"We think a more streamlined E-Commerce experience on Instagram could add an incremental $10 [billion] of revenue in 2021, and we see 'Checkout with Instagram' as a key step towards unlocking this opportunity," Deutsche Bank analyst Lloyd Walmsley wrote in a note to investors on Monday.
