Estimated rate

Based on benchmarks from 2,000+ influencer and UGC brand deals.

How rates are estimated +

Influencer (TikTok, Instagram, YouTube): we anchor on reach—followers and average views with platform-specific weights—then apply multipliers for engagement quality, content format (Reel vs feed vs integration, etc.), niche, usage rights, an optional whitelisting uplift, and exclusivity when checked.

base ≈ follower_component + view_component
→ × engagement × format × niche × usage (× whitelisting if needed) (× exclusivity if checked)

UGC: per-asset units (videos, hooks, photo sets) × editing depth × niche × usage rights, with the same whitelisting / exclusivity logic and an optional bump if you also distribute to your own audience.

Numbers are medians; the dark summary card adds a typical negotiation band. Adjusting format and usage is how you answer questions like how much to charge for Instagram Reels versus stories or extended rights.

How this influencer rate calculator works

This calculator estimates brand deal pricing using the same factors brands review:

  • audience size
  • average views
  • engagement rate
  • content format
  • number of deliverables
  • usage rights
  • whitelisting or paid ads usage
  • exclusivity

Each platform (TikTok, Instagram, YouTube) has different pricing patterns.

UGC pricing focuses more on deliverables and usage rights than follower count.

Deliverables and packages

Enter how many posts or videos the brand is buying.

Add-ons like hooks, extra edits, or story posts can increase the total price.

Bundles are often priced slightly lower per post than one-off deals.

Usage rights and whitelisting

Brands often pay more if they can run ads using your content.

Organic-only usage usually costs less than paid advertising rights.

Whitelisting means the brand can promote your content through your account.

Select the option that matches how the brand plans to use the content.

Frequently asked questions

How should I price UGC deliverables? +

Usage rights define where and how long a brand can use your content. Broader rights usually increase pricing.

Should I charge extra for UGC whitelisting? +

Usually yes. If a brand runs ads using your content or account access, many creators add a separate fee.

How are hooks priced compared with full UGC videos? +

Hooks are usually priced lower per asset than full videos, but they still add to the total package price.

Why include optional follower count for UGC? +

Use this if you will also post to your own audience. Audience distribution can increase value and pricing.
