Rates by audience size
The headline figure for each format at seven audience sizes. These are what the calculator returns, rounded the way a creator would quote them.
| Audience | Instagram Reel | Feed post | Story set | TikTok video | YouTube integration |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5K | $225 | $125 | $75 | $150 | $250 |
| 10K | $400 | $200 | $125 | $275 | $475 |
| 25K | $850 | $450 | $250 | $600 | $1,000 |
| 50K | $1,550 | $800 | $475 | $1,100 | $1,850 |
| 100K | $2,800 | $1,450 | $850 | $2,000 | $3,300 |
| 250K | $6,100 | $3,200 | $1,850 | $4,400 | $7,200 |
| 500K | $11,000 | $5,700 | $3,300 | $7,900 | $13,000 |
Followers for Instagram and TikTok, subscribers for YouTube. Each figure is one number to quote; the rate pages break a size down with the add-ons priced on that fee, and the whole table is published as plain text in Selah’s pricing reference.
How the calculator works
Each format has a benchmark at a set audience, and the fee scales with audience on a curve that grows more slowly than your follower count. The curve and the benchmarks were checked against nine published 2026 rate guides, and the add-ons are a share of your content fee, scaled by how long the brand keeps the rights.
The methodology page lists every source and formula. For a deal that is mostly about usage terms, the usage rights calculator goes further: it reads contract wording like “in perpetuity” or “Spark Code” and prices it.
Frequently asked questions
How much should I charge for an Instagram Reel with 50,000 followers?
About $1,550, with a typical range of $1,150 to $1,950. Five published 2026 guides put an Instagram Reel at 50,000 followers in a range of $1,100 to $2,800, with a median of $1,750. Selah quotes $1,550, 11% under the median and inside the range.
How much do TikTok creators charge per video?
On Selah's rates, about $275 at 10K followers, $1,100 at 50K and $2,000 at 100K. Rates grow more slowly than audience: doubling your followers adds roughly 80% to the fee, not 100%.
Does this calculator include usage rights, exclusivity and rush fees?
Yes. Pick what the brand asked for and the total updates, with the published market range beside each add-on. A fee for the post alone is often a fraction of what a deal is worth once a brand runs it as an ad or asks you to stay away from competitors.
How is this different from other influencer rate calculators?
Many are written for brands planning a budget and estimate from follower count alone. This one is written for the creator replying to an offer: it prices the add-ons brands ask for, shows the published range beside each figure so you can see where Selah sits, and gives you bullets you can paste into your reply.
Does engagement rate or niche change the number?
Not in this calculator, which prices on audience size and the add-ons the brand names. Treat the figure as a defensible starting point and adjust for your own track record. To price a specific brief, paste the brand’s email into the demo and Selah prices each deliverable and add-on in it.
