Note
This is a simplified model: it applies the counts, rates, prices and fees you enter to plain arithmetic. Every platform cut, payment fee, CPM, royalty per play and commission rate is a value you supply, because no platform's revenue share, advertising rate or payout rate is fixed: they change over time and differ by country, contract, category, audience and season. Engagement, open, click and unsubscribe rates are the standard definitions, but each platform and email tool counts interactions, reach, delivered mail and opens differently, so a rate is only comparable against numbers counted the same way; image-blocking and privacy features in particular make open rates unreliable. Revenue estimates ignore taxes, withholding, currency conversion, refunds, chargebacks, invalid traffic, minimum payout thresholds and payment delays. The churn projection assumes a constant monthly churn rate and a constant number of new subscribers, which real audiences never follow. Treat every figure as a rough planning estimate, not a forecast of what you will be paid, and check your own platform statements and any contract before relying on it. This is not financial, tax or legal advice.

How do creators typically calculate a baseline sponsorship rate?+
A common industry starting point is a rate per 1,000 views or per 1,000 followers (often $10-30 CPM-equivalent for sponsored content), then adjusted for engagement rate, niche value, and deliverable complexity. This calculator applies that baseline formula to your specific numbers.
Why do two creators with the same follower count charge very different sponsorship rates?+
Because follower count alone doesn't capture engagement rate, audience purchasing power, content niche (finance and B2B audiences command more than general lifestyle content), or production quality — all factors that sponsors actually pay for beyond raw reach.
Should I price based on views or on followers?+
Views (or reach) is usually the more defensible basis since it reflects actual delivered exposure rather than a follower count that may include inactive accounts, but many sponsors still request a follower-based quote as an industry-standard reference point.
How much should engagement rate adjust my base rate?+
There's no fixed formula, but a common approach is to apply a multiplier above or below 1.0 based on how your engagement rate compares to the platform/niche average — well above average can justify a 1.2-1.5x premium, well below might mean pricing closer to or below the baseline.
Does this calculated rate include usage rights and exclusivity?+
No — the baseline rate covers the standard post itself. Extended usage rights (the brand reusing your content in ads), exclusivity periods (agreeing not to work with competitors), and whitelisting typically add 25-100% or more on top of the base rate, negotiated separately.
