Short answer
A branded content tag is a built-in platform label, such as Meta's "Paid partnership" tag on Instagram and Facebook, that creators add to posts to disclose a commercial relationship with a brand. It helps meet platform policies and advertising disclosure rules. The tag also gives the partner brand access to post performance data and ad options.
