How much do influencer ads cost in Saudi Arabia? What creators actually ask
Real asking prices from more than 6,000 creator offers on Trendly in 2025 and 2026, by follower size, and what moves a price up or down.
Most price lists for influencer ads in Saudi Arabia are written by agencies selling a package. This one comes from the offers creators sent to brands. On Trendly, creators apply to a campaign with their own price, so we can see what they ask before anyone negotiates.
The short answer: for one paid video from a creator with 10,000 to 100,000 TikTok followers, the median first offer was SAR 600. Half of those offers sat between SAR 500 and SAR 1,000.
What creators asked, by follower size
The table covers creators’ first offers on paid and gift-plus-paid influencer campaigns that brands posted on Trendly, up to 3 November 2026. Each offer is grouped by the creator’s TikTok followers on that date. "Middle half" means a quarter of offers were below the range and a quarter above it.
| TikTok followers | Offers | Creators | Median first offer | Middle half |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Under 10,000 | 325 | 99 | SAR 600 | SAR 400 to 1,500 |
| 10,000 to 100,000 | 2,046 | 262 | SAR 600 | SAR 500 to 1,000 |
| 100,000 to 500,000 | 3,818 | 272 | SAR 800 | SAR 500 to 1,500 |
We left out accounts above 500,000 followers. Fewer than 20 of them sent offers, which is too few for a median we would stand behind.
Three things the numbers show
Size moves the price less than people think. The median for an account with 300,000 followers was only SAR 200 above the median for one with 30,000. A creator’s price depends as much on their niche, how much brand work they already do and how badly they want the job as on their follower count.
The spread inside each band is wide. Some creators under 10,000 followers asked SAR 1,500 or more, and some with 200,000 asked SAR 500. Comparing two offers from the same band tells you more than any rate card.
The first offer is a starting point. In Trendly’s campaign history from October 2025 to October 2026, the median asking price on paid influencer campaigns was SAR 800 and the median accepted price was SAR 500. Only about a hundred accepted prices were recorded, so treat that gap as a sign, not a rule. For restaurant visits where the creator also gets a free meal, the median ask was SAR 500 and the median accepted price SAR 250.
Prices for UGC are lower
User-generated content (UGC) is a video made for the brand to post or run as an ad, not posted on the creator’s own account. The creator isn’t lending their audience, so prices are lower. On Trendly, the median ask for a paid UGC video was SAR 500.
What celebrities charge
The numbers above are for everyday creators, not celebrities. Celebrity rates are rarely public. One Saudi broker, influencerssa.com, publishes examples: a Snapchat celebrity in Makkah at SAR 5,000 for an ad recorded remotely and SAR 10,000 for one recorded in person. That is one broker’s price for one account, not a market rate.
What pushes a price up
- More than one deliverable. A video plus three stories costs more than a single video.
- Usage rights. If you want to run the creator’s video as a paid ad, agree that up front. Many creators charge for it.
- Travel and time. A visit to your shop, restaurant or clinic takes more of their day than a product sent to their home.
- Exclusivity. Asking a creator not to work with competitors for a period has a cost.
- A tight deadline. Rush jobs cost more, or get refused.
What brings it down
- A clear brief with one goal. Creators price in the risk of vague work and repeated edits. Our guide to writing a creator brief covers what to include.
- Letting creators set the angle. Scripts that don’t suit them cost more and perform worse.
- Gifting plus payment when the product is something they would actually use.
- Repeat work. Creators often discount for a brand that pays on time and comes back.
How to set your budget
- Decide how many creators you want, not how much reach. Five creators at SAR 600 each usually teach you more than one at SAR 3,000.
- Take the median for the size you want and plan for some offers above it.
- Add the platform or agency fee. On Trendly it is a 10% service fee on top of the agreed price, and posting a campaign is free.
- Keep room to hire again whoever worked.

About these numbers
The offers come from Trendly’s own data. Imported campaigns are excluded, and follower counts are TikTok followers on 3 November 2026, not on the day of the offer. Prices are rounded to the nearest SAR 50 and shown only for groups with at least 20 creators. They describe what creators asked on one platform, so they are a reference point, not a quote.
Questions you might have
How much does a micro-influencer charge for one video in Saudi Arabia?
On Trendly, creators with 10,000 to 100,000 TikTok followers asked a median of SAR 600 in their first offer on a paid campaign. Half of those offers fell between SAR 500 and SAR 1,000.
Do bigger accounts always cost more?
Less than you might expect. Creators with 100,000 to 500,000 followers asked a median of SAR 800, only SAR 200 more than micro-influencers. Prices vary far more between individual creators than between follower bands.
Is the first offer the final price?
Often not. In Trendly’s campaign history the median accepted price on paid influencer campaigns was SAR 500, against a median asking price of SAR 800, though only about a hundred accepted prices were recorded.
