RUCKUS / Pricing
Pricing.
Published, because a buyer should not need a call to learn the number. There are two services. Each has its own price, and each is paid on its own invoice.
Two services, two prices.
Pick by where you want the clips to go: on many clippers' accounts, or on your own.
| Service | What you pay | What it buys |
|---|---|---|
| Clipper network campaign | A budget from $3,000, funded in your own Content Rewards account, plus our fee: 20% of that budget on a separate invoice | Many clippers post your clips on their own accounts and are paid for the eligible views. We write the brief, review every clip and report every Friday |
| Retainer clipping | From $1,500 a month, on one invoice | Our own editors post 2 clips a day on accounts you own, with the plan, the scripts and the posting handled |
You can run one, or both at once. Neither one comes with a promised number of views. The two services side by side →
Where a campaign budget goes.
For a clipper network campaign paid per view. A retainer has no budget to plan: it is one monthly price.
Plan a CPM campaign. Adjust the budget, gross reward rate and reserves; the result shows spending capacity, not a forecast of views. For a per-post or retainer campaign, ask for a deliverables-based quote.

The price sheet.
| Offer | Price | How it is set |
|---|---|---|
| Campaign management | 20% of the approved budget, invoiced separately on the agreed payment schedule | Brief, clipper coordination, review and reporting; charged to the buyer separately from rewards |
| Production: editing, packaging, an editorial desk for a server | Quoted per job | Priced from real contractor cost |
| Verification report | Included with your first campaign | A separate line item from month two |
| Retainer clipping | From $1,500 a month, invoiced at the start of the month | Our editors post 2 clips a day on your own accounts, with the plan, the scripts and the posting. It runs on its own or beside a campaign. $1,500 covers one brand on up to three platforms; more is quoted in writing |
| Clip packs, for roleplay servers and new creators | $250 a month for 8 clips; $450 a month for 20 | The same editors and report as a retainer, with fewer clips. A launch or wipe pack of 8 clips is $150, once |
| Proving run | Free for 14 days | 8 clips for a creator or server we choose, two at a time. The price that follows is written in our first message |
| Deposit, campaigns | 50% of the fee before work starts on a first engagement | Proposed for every first campaign. Retainers and clip packs are invoiced in advance each month |
What the fee comes to.
The fee pays for the brief, the launch push, the review queue twice a day and the Friday report. At the $3,000 start it is $600; on large budgets the same percentage carries the work.
| Approved budget | Our fee | Effective rate | What the platform does |
|---|---|---|---|
| $3,000 | $600 | 20% | The RUCKUS managed-campaign starting budget. Choose CPM, per-post or retainer deliberately |
| $9,000 | $1,800 | 20% | Close to the average campaign that the verified agencies on one large campaign platform report, and the size RUCKUS plans a typical campaign around |
| $10,000 | $2,000 | 20% | Creator net depends on the campaign type, platform fees and approved work |
| $25,000 | $5,000 | 20% | A launch-week pot for a brand or a large server |
| $50,000 | $10,000 | 20% | The brand launch package's pot, with production quoted on top |
The Campaign Standard.
Every RUCKUS campaign runs on these settings, written into the agreement and the platform's own fields before anything goes live. A buyer can ask to change one; RUCKUS puts its recommendation and the reason in writing.
| Setting | The standard | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Budget | $3,000 minimum, with typical campaigns planned around $9,000 | The verified agencies on one large campaign platform publish about $6.25 million moved across 693 campaigns, an average close to $9,000. Those are the platform's published figures, read on 23 September 2026, not audited accounts. At $9,000 the RUCKUS fee is $1,800 |
| Advertised rate, CPM campaigns | About $2.00 per 1,000 eligible views | Clippers compare campaigns on the advertised rate. On 23 September 2026 no advertised rate was more common than $2.00 on a large public campaign board. Market context, not a promise of views or earnings |
| What the budget pays per view | Plan on well under the advertised rate | Caps, minimums, denials and the earning window pull what a budget pays per view below the rate a brief advertises. One platform's panel showed about $0.99 effective against about $1.93 advertised on 23 September 2026: one dated observation, not a forecast |
| Per-clip cap | $500 per clip | A clip that travels past the cap earns $500 and no more, so one post cannot take the pot and the rest of the budget reaches more clippers |
| Minimum views | 2,000 by default | The budget does not pay for clips nobody watched |
| Disclosure | The RUCKUS Disclosure Standard: on screen, in the caption's first line, and the platform's paid-content setting | 16 CFR Part 255 and Section 5 of the FTC Act. A reviewer does not approve a clip that is missing any of the three |
| Review | A decision inside 24 hours, with a written reason on every denial | Clippers leave a campaign whose approvals take days |
| Liveness | Every approved clip re-checked at day 14 and day 30 | Your report records any clip that was deleted, made private or changed |
| Studio fee | 20% of the approved budget, invoiced separately | RUCKUS never takes the fee from the clipper pot and never collects it through a campaign platform's checkout |
| Who clips | 18 and over, self-attested | RUCKUS never collects IDs, dates of birth or documents |
| Gambling | None | RUCKUS runs no gambling campaigns and approves no clip that promotes real-money gambling |
The calculator at the top of this page uses an illustrative $0.20 to $1.00 range per 1,000, which is the range RUCKUS uses for what a budget works out to once caps, minimums and denials are counted. The rate a brief advertises is set separately and usually sits higher. Both are market context, not a promise of views or earnings.

The platform's numbers.
Content Rewards is where the campaign lives; Whop processes the payouts. Checked 18 September 2026. Confirm the actual funding breakdown and applicable campaign terms before payment.
| Item | The number |
|---|---|
| Starting budget | $3,000 with RUCKUS. The platform itself allows $1,000, which may suit a self-managed test |
| Platform fees | A 10% platform fee from the funded budget (8% for verified accounts), a flat 10% creator fee on CPM campaigns, waived on per-post and retainer campaigns of $5,000 or more, and a payment-processing fee added as a line item |
| Clipper rate, entertainment | The calculator uses an illustrative $0.20 to $1.00 gross CPM range. Your brief sets the actual rate; original UGC production is quoted separately |
| Per-video cap | Scales with the budget, and it is the mechanic that stops one clip draining a campaign |
| Earning window | CPM: 7 days, plus a 3-day hold. Per-post payouts settle shortly after approval; retainer payouts settle after the cycle ends, subject to validation. Withdrawals through Whop take 3 to 5 business days, or instant for a fee. RUCKUS's day-14 and day-30 checks are our own verification policy, written into the agreement |
| Campaigns at $5,000 and above | Only per-post and retainer campaigns qualify for the Premium creator-fee waiver at this budget. CPM keeps its 10% creator fee |
A posted rate is never an earnings promise, for you or for a clipper. Public views and payable views are two different columns on every RUCKUS report. Where each dollar of a $10,000 budget goes →
