So you’re a Naija influencer hustling on Instagram and wondering how to link up with Spain brands for that sweet collaboration in 2025? No wahala, this one na real talk for you. As of 2025 May, influencer marketing is booming globally, and Nigeria’s social media scene is no exception. But when it comes to working with Spain brands, you need the right moves to secure collabs that pay well and build your brand.
📢 Naija Social Media Vibes in 2025
By 2025 May, Instagram remains king for influencer marketing in Nigeria. With over 40 million active users in Naija, Instagram is the prime playground for influencers to showcase lifestyle, fashion, beauty, and tech content. Brands both local and international now see Nigerian influencers as key to reaching West African consumers.
However, collabing with Spain brands means you’re playing on a different field. Spain brands want authentic engagement and content that resonates not just with their local market but with global diaspora and emerging markets like Nigeria. So knowing the Naija social media culture and payment systems is crucial to seal the deal.
💡 How Naija Influencers Can Score Spain Brands Collaboration
1. Understand Spain Brands’ DNA
Spain brands are big on lifestyle, fashion, food, and travel sectors. Brands like Zara, Mango, and Desigual are always on the lookout for fresh voices that can bring their vibe into new markets. But beyond the biggies, many mid-tier Spanish brands are hungry for collaborations to penetrate African markets via Instagram.
2. Build a Strong Naija Instagram Presence
Before Spain brands DM you, make sure your Instagram is solid. Post regularly with authentic content that reflects your niche — be it street fashion in Lagos, Afrobeat lifestyle, or Naija food culture. Use hashtags that combine Spain and Nigeria vibes like #SpainStyleNaija or #NaijaLovesSpain.
3. Use Local Payment Channels Smartly
Spain brands prefer smooth payment processes. Naija influencers should set up to receive payments via Payoneer, Wise, or even direct bank transfers to Nigerian banks like GTBank or Zenith, to avoid forex wahala. Always clarify payment terms upfront — most Spain brands pay in Euros, so know the current exchange rate to Naira (₦).
4. Leverage Naija Influencer Marketing Platforms
Platforms like Dealdey and even BaoLiba’s Nigeria branch help connect local influencers with global brands. Register and keep your profile updated. These platforms often have Spain brand campaigns open for Nigerian influencers.
5. Pitch with a Global-Local Mix
When reaching out or responding to Spain brands, highlight your Nigeria audience but also your global reach if any. Show data like engagement rates, follower demographics, and previous collabs. Spain brands love influencers who understand both worlds.

Another example is Chinedu M., a tech influencer who worked with BQ Spain to showcase smart gadgets on Instagram. His honest reviews and demo videos brought real results, and BQ renewed their collab contract for six months.
❗ Legal and Cultural Tips for Naija Influencers
Nigeria’s influencer contracts must comply with local laws — including clear terms on deliverables, payment schedules, and content rights. Also, respect cultural sensitivities. Some Spain brands may want content aligned with their values, so always communicate to avoid misunderstandings.
Instagram influencer marketing in Nigeria is informal but getting contracts in writing (even WhatsApp chats) is key to avoid gbege (trouble).
