Unsure? Compute it with our Engagement Rate tool

A negotiation anchor: niche, audience geography, exclusivity and usage rights move real fees 2-5×. Actual rates are set at the table.

What Sponsors Actually Pay For

Brand deals price on followers × engagement, not followers alone — a 50K account at 6% engagement out-earns a 200K account at 0.8%. The common industry baseline runs $5-15 per 1,000 followers per post at average (~3%) engagement, scaled by your actual rate; TikTok posts price at roughly half Instagram (less evergreen), stories at ~40%, reels near post rates. Tiers matter too: nano (1-10K) accounts often start near $50-100 flat, while 500K+ accounts negotiate custom packages far above the formula.

The estimate is a negotiation anchor, not a price list: niche (finance/beauty pay multiples of memes), audience geography, exclusivity, usage rights and deliverable count move real deals 2-5×. Media kits quoting engagement openly close better deals.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is my quoted offer below the estimate?

Agencies open low, and audience geography matters — advertisers discount non-Western audiences heavily. Counter with your engagement rate and audience-country breakdown from insights.

Do TikTok Creator Fund style programs change this?

Platform funds pay per view (fractions of a cent) and rarely rival a single brand deal. Sponsorships remain the income backbone at every tier.
