Q2 2026 creator-compensation benchmarks — EU + LATAM
Compensation ranges by tier, vertical, and region for Q2 2026 across EU and LATAM. Quarterly refresh from operator interviews and aggregated platform data.
Quarterly refresh of compensation benchmarks across EU + LATAM creator programs, drawn from operator interviews and aggregated platform data through end of April 2026.
What's inside
- Fixed-fee benchmarks by tier (Bronze through Diamond), by vertical, by region. Posts, stories, reels, long-form video, and live formats.
- Rev-share benchmarks — typical percentages by vertical and exclusivity, with shifts noted vs. Q1 2026.
- Seeding-value benchmarks — RRP-to-fixed-fee equivalent ratios by vertical.
- Hybrid mixes — most-common production combinations and outcome notes.
- FX and settlement cadence — what local-currency settlement looks like in MXN, BRL, COP, ARS this quarter.
What changed vs Q1
A few notable shifts:
- Beauty hybrid mixes have tilted further toward rev-share weighting as more brands install first-party attribution and trust the reported numbers.
- Sports & TV tentpoles are running shorter windows; per-fixture fees are flat but brief-to-live time is materially compressed.
- LATAM rev-share percentages ticked up across most verticals as multi-currency settlement reduced FX-margin frustration and creators accepted longer payout cadences on aligned terms.
How to read the benchmarks
Each benchmark is a range, not a number. The range reflects real variance from operator to operator and market to market — it's more useful as a sanity check than as a target. Operators using the benchmarks should expect to land inside the range but not necessarily at the median.
Why this is gated
These are operator-grade figures. The download form asks for company + role; we use it to scope a possible follow-up demo, nothing else.
