How much do influencers charge in Singapore?
According to Get Kobe, a Social Media Marketing agency, the market rates are as follows:
| Instagram followers | Rates (per Instagram post) |
| 2,000 to 9,999 | $75 to $250 |
| 10,000 to 49,999 | $250 to $500 |
| 50,000 to 100,000 | $500 to $1,000 |
| 99,999 to 499,999 | $1,000 to $3,000 |
| 500,000 and up | $3,000 and above |
It could be as low as $75 per Instagram post to $1,000,000 per Instagram post. CNBC reports that Kylie Jenner apparently charges $1,000,000 per Instagram post.
It largely depends on the number of following the Instagram influencer has.
