How to Enable Snapchat Geotags
If you don't see any geotag filters show up on your photos or videos when you swipe right through them, go to the camera viewer, tap the ghost icon at the top, and then the gear icon in the upper-right corner to access your settings. Then, tap Manage and make sure the Filters button is turned on.
How to Create a Snapchat Geotag
Creating the image for a Snapchat geotag is probably the hardest part, mainly because you need basic graphic design skills and a design program. For best results, use a professional design program such as Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop.

You need to enter an email address, your name, and a description of the geotag. If there's a problem with your image, you'll see red text on the right-hand side explaining what needs to be fixed. Make the necessary changes.
When you're ready, select Submit. After you successfully submit your geotag image, you're sent a confirmation email telling you it will be reviewed in the order it was received.

If Snapchat approves it, you'll get a notification.
Custom Snapchat Geotag Guidelines
To submit a geofilter to Snapchat, you must follow some rules. Your image: Must be 100% original.
(You can't use clipart, even if it's free.)
Must be 1080px wide and 2340px tall. Must be a PNG image with transparency enabled. Must be less than 300KB in size.
Cannot have any logos or trademarks. Cannot cover too much of the screen. Cannot have hashtags.
These rules are simple enough to follow if you have Illustrator or Photoshop and know how to use them. But other programs might download the image in a larger size, and without any transparency. You must fix any errors before Snapchat will accept your custom tag.

About Snapchat Geotags
Whenever you snap a photo or film a short video through Snapchat, you can swipe right on the preview to apply certain filter effects to it—one of which is the geotag filter, which changes depending on your location. Snapchat geotags (or geofilters) are fun images and text overlays that appear on top of a section of your photos or videos, sort of like a sticker. Not all locations have them, though, so if you come across a place that could use one, you can make it yourself.
