How clipping payouts work
Most clipping campaigns pay a fixed rate per 1,000 views, often between $1 and $3 depending on the platform. The brief also sets a minimum payout: a clip that earns less than that pays nothing, and a maximum payout per post.
So the number to watch is not the total views but the views needed to cross the minimum. At $2 per 1,000 views and a $5 minimum, a clip needs 2,500 views before it pays anything.
Views needed for common campaign rates
| Rate per 1,000 views | Minimum $4 | Minimum $5 | Minimum $10 |
|---|---|---|---|
| $1.00 | 4,000 | 5,000 | 10,000 |
| $1.50 | 2,667 | 3,334 | 6,667 |
| $2.00 | 2,000 | 2,500 | 5,000 |
| $3.00 | 1,334 | 1,667 | 3,334 |
Campaigns also check engagement and audience country and can reject clips that break the brief. Read the full brief: if this page and the brief disagree, the brief wins.
Stop losing clips to the brief
A clip rejected for a missing tag or a covered logo earns nothing at any view count. PreflightClips checks the caption, the frame and the submission window before you post. Free, in your browser.
