Instagram isn’t planning to charge a fee to put links in captions

Instagram parent company Facebook first submitted the patent application back in 2016, which shows a pop-up appearing when the user adds a URL to a caption, asking if the user wants to pay $2 to make the link live. 

But paid links won’t appear in Instagram captions any time soon, a company spokesperson says. “We have no plans of introducing this functionality on Instagram.”
