At the end of 2020, Pinterest launched a new feature called Story Pins. If you’re familiar with Instagram Stories, the concept is fairly similar, with the added twist of being pin-able. 

Currently, Story Pins are only available for Pinterest business accounts, and you need to request access in order to create them. Here’s a step-by-step process on how that works.

Once you’ve been approved to use Story Pins, you can create them in the “Create” tab the same way you would any other Pin, but with the added advantage of being able to combine multiple images, videos, and text to promote your business in creative and unique ways. Play around with it and see what suits your business best.
