How this tool works
There's no single official rate card for influencer pricing, but follower count and engagement rate are the two biggest inputs brands and creators both use. This calculator gives you a starting negotiation range, not a fixed price.
- Enter total followers.
- Enter your average engagement rate (use the engagement calculator above if you don't know it).
- Choose your niche tier — budget, standard or premium.
- See estimated rates for a post, Story and Reel.
Tips to get better results
- Treat this as a starting point for negotiation, not a fixed invoice — usage rights, exclusivity and production effort all move the real number.
- Higher engagement rate at a smaller follower count often out-earns a bigger but less-engaged account per post.
- Bundle deliverables (a Reel plus Stories) rather than pricing everything separately — most brands prefer one combined quote.

How is influencer pricing usually calculated?
Most rough estimates start from follower count and engagement rate, then get adjusted for niche, production effort, usage rights and exclusivity.
Do micro-influencers charge less per follower?
Often the opposite — micro-influencers frequently have higher engagement rates, which can push their effective rate per follower up, not down.
Should Reels cost more than static posts?
Generally yes, since Reels take more production time and tend to reach a wider audience than a single image post.
