The honest answer

Why is it free? Here’s the honest answer.

The free plan has SociableKIT branding on the widget — a small “Powered by SociableKIT” link at the bottom. That’s how we keep it free, forever.

The free plan is 1 widget, 1 source, 2,000 monthly views, and manual sync requests. Most small sites never outgrow it. When you do need more sources, automatic sync, or no branding, our paid plans start at $10/month.

No hidden costs. No trial that auto-charges. No credit card required. SociableKIT has offered a free plan since 2014, and we’re not changing that.

Common questions

Free plan FAQ

Everything you need to know about using Instagram Stories for free.

What is the SociableKIT Instagram Stories widget?

The SociableKIT Instagram Stories widget lets you display your Instagram Stories on your website in a clean, mobile-friendly format. It helps visitors see your latest updates, offers, behind-the-scenes content, and social proof without leaving your page.

Can I embed Instagram Stories on my website?

Yes. SociableKIT gives you an embed code you can add to your website so your Instagram Stories can appear directly on your page. This is helpful because Instagram does not offer a simple native embed option for Stories like it does for regular posts.

Do I need coding skills to use the Instagram Stories widget?

No. You create the widget, customize the design, copy the embed code, and paste it into your website. Most website owners can set it up without writing custom code.

Will my Instagram Stories update automatically on my website?

Yes, automatic syncing is available on paid plans. When you publish new Stories, SociableKIT can keep your website widget updated based on the widget sync schedule, so you do not need to re-embed content every time.

What happens when an Instagram Story expires after 24 hours?

Instagram Stories are temporary, so expired Stories may no longer appear in the widget. When you publish new active Stories, the widget can show the latest available content again. For evergreen content, consider using Story Highlights if that better fits your goal.

Do I need an Instagram Business or Creator account?

No. You can use a personal, Business, or Creator Instagram account, as long as it is public. If your account is private, Instagram does not allow its content to be displayed on external websites.

Can I show Stories from a private Instagram account?

No. Instagram does not allow content from private accounts to be displayed on external websites. To show Instagram Stories with our widget, the account must be set to public.

Can I customize how the Instagram Stories widget looks?

Yes. You can adjust the layout, colors, fonts, spacing, and other design details so the widget feels natural on your website. SociableKIT is built to help your social content match your brand instead of looking pasted on.

Is the Instagram Stories widget mobile-friendly?

Yes. The widget is designed to work across desktop, tablet, and mobile screens. This matters because many visitors browse from their phones, and your Stories should feel smooth wherever they view them.

Will the widget work with my website builder?

Yes. SociableKIT works with many popular website builders and any website that allows custom embed code. You can place the widget on your homepage, landing page, service page, blog, or any page where social proof can help visitors trust you faster.

Can visitors watch my Instagram Stories directly on my website?

Yes. Visitors can view your Stories inside the widget, which helps keep them engaged on your website. Some actions may still open Instagram depending on how the story or visitor interaction works.

Can I control which Stories appear in the widget?

Yes, SociableKIT can help you manage what appears depending on your widget settings and plan. This is useful when you only want to show brand-safe, relevant, or campaign-specific Stories on your website.

What is the difference between Instagram Stories and Instagram Story Highlights?

Instagram Stories are temporary and usually disappear after 24 hours. Story Highlights are saved collections that stay on your profile longer. Use Stories for fresh updates and Highlights for evergreen content like testimonials, tutorials, FAQs, or product features.

Will the Instagram Stories widget slow down my website?

SociableKIT is designed to display social content cleanly without making setup complicated. As with any embedded media, performance can depend on your page, theme, hosting, and how many widgets you add. Keep the widget focused and place it where it supports the visitor journey.

Can I use the widget on more than one page?

Yes. Paid plans include unlimited widgets, so you can show your Instagram Stories on the pages where they create the most trust. For example, you can place them on your homepage, offers page, events page, or campaign landing page.

Does SociableKIT support high-traffic websites?

Yes. Paid plans include unlimited views, which is helpful when your website traffic grows. You do not have to worry about your Instagram Stories widget disappearing because more visitors viewed it.

Is there a free plan for the Instagram Stories widget?

Yes. SociableKIT has a free plan you can use to start displaying your Instagram Stories. The free plan is a good way to test the widget before upgrading for premium features like automatic sync, more capacity, or removing branding.

Can I remove SociableKIT branding from the widget?

Yes. Removing SociableKIT branding is available on paid plans. This helps the widget look cleaner and more native to your website.

What if my Instagram Stories do not appear?

First, check if your Instagram account is connected properly, public when needed, and currently has active Stories. Also check whether the Story has expired or has visibility restrictions. If you still need help, SociableKIT support can review the setup with you.

Can SociableKIT help me set up the Instagram Stories widget?

Yes. SociableKIT offers support to help you create, customize, and embed your widget. This is useful if you are using a specific website builder or want the widget to look right before publishing.
