Due to current API limitations, only Pinterest business pages are supported on Planable. But no worries, it's easy to switch your personal page to a business page and reap the rewards of connecting Planable with your business profile!

Follow these simple steps below to seamlessly turn your personal page into a business page. Your pins and followers will remain the same while taking advantage of additional features exclusive to businesses - such as increased analytics insights & promotional capabilities.
