Snap, parent company of social media app Snapchat, has reached 1 million subscribers for its Snapchat subscription, the company said on Monday, after launching the service in June as a new source of revenue.

Social media companies including Meta Platforms, which all earn the majority of revenue from selling digital advertising, are facing a weakening ad market due to record-high inflation causing brands to reign in their marketing spending.

Snap's shares dropped 25 percent last month after disappointing second quarter earnings, as it suffered from weaker advertising demand than Wall Street had expected. Chief Executive Evan Spiegel said the company would work to speed up revenue growth, in part through new sources of revenue.
