Instagram pays no reported fixed per-view rate, so creator income comes from sponsorship at reported band rates of $25 to $300 per post for nano accounts rising to $15,000 and beyond for mega. Enter a follower count and an average engagement rate to see an estimated earnings range per post. Use the bands to sense-check a quote rather than to set a price. No signup, no card.
The calculator maps a follower count to its reported rate tier, then adjusts for how engaged that audience actually is. You get a range in seconds rather than a guess, which is enough to tell whether a quote sits inside reported territory or well outside it.
Every figure traces back to published industry reporting for 2026. The tool never presents an exact price, since no benchmark can know a creator's rate card. It shows the reported territory and leaves the negotiation to you.
When a creator quotes far above the reported band for their size, the gap is a prompt to ask what is driving it, whether that is usage rights, exclusivity or unusually strong performance. When a quote sits far below, it is worth checking the audience is real before you celebrate.
Enter two numbers and read an earnings range in seconds. No account, no setup and no waiting.
Every band traces to published 2026 reporting, hedged as reported rather than dressed up as an exact price.
The estimate moves with how engaged an audience is, since response matters more than a raw follower count.

It depends heavily on audience size, so the reported 2026 bands are the clearest starting point. Nano creators between 1,000 and 10,000 followers are reported at roughly $25 to $300 per static post. Micro creators between 10,000 and 100,000 sit at a reported $150 to $1,500. Mid tier creators between 100,000 and 500,000 are reported at $1,000 to $6,000, macro creators between 500,000 and 2 million at $5,000 to $20,000 and mega creators above 2 million at $15,000 to $75,000 or more. Those are reported ranges rather than fixed prices, since niche, market and usage rights move the final number a long way.
It maps the follower count you enter to a reported rate tier, then shows that tier's reported range. If you also enter an engagement rate, the tool compares it against the reported typical rate for that tier and nudges the range up or down accordingly, within sensible limits. The result is an estimate built from published benchmarks rather than a live quote from any creator. It runs entirely in your browser, so nothing you type is sent anywhere.
In practice it does, because a brand is paying for response rather than for a follower number. Reported engagement rates by tier give the context: nano accounts around 5% to 10%, micro around 3% to 6%, mid tier around 1.5% to 4%, macro around 1% to 2.5% and mega around 0.5% to 1.5%. A creator sitting well above the reported band for their size is delivering more response per follower, which is usually reflected in what they can ask. A creator well below it is worth a closer look before you commit budget.
Reported benchmarks put Reels at roughly 2x to 3x the rate of a static post in the same tier. Video takes more time and more production effort to make, it tends to reach beyond the existing follower base, so the pricing reflects both. If you are budgeting for a Reel, take the range this calculator shows then scale it by that reported multiplier. Bundles that combine a Reel with Stories or a static post are usually negotiated as a package rather than as the sum of the individual rates.
Yes, it is free with no signup and no card. It is one of several free tools you can use without an account, alongside the engagement rate calculator and the fake follower checker. Everything is computed in your browser. When you need to go further than a single estimate, the full platform adds audience demographics, fake-follower scoring and discovery across more than 10 million verified creators, starting with a Free Plan at $0 with no card.
Because the underlying benchmarks are reported ranges, not fixed prices. Two creators with identical follower counts can charge very differently depending on niche, audience country, exclusivity, usage rights and how much production the brief demands. A range tells you the territory you should expect to negotiate inside. If a quote lands far outside the range for that tier, that is worth a question rather than an assumption that it is wrong.
10M+ verified creators across 4 platforms, 12 filters and a fake-follower score on every profile. No card.
