Health and Wellness Influencer Rates: What Each Sub-Niche Earns

One TikTok account priced in every health sub-niche and as fitness, straight from the app.

A health creator is priced on more than the topic. Brands look at how many followers a video really reaches, how much they react and which part of health the content covers. Take a 35,000-follower TikTok account with 10,000 average views, 7% engagement and a Mixed audience. In the base health niche SponsorCraft prices a dedicated video at $623. Mental health and wellness and medical education add 10% ($685), and sleep and recovery, women's health and chronic conditions add 5% ($654). Priced as fitness, the same account would quote $479.

Health sub-niches priced side by side

Every health sub-niche carries an adjustment in the app, and three of them are estimates. Mental health and wellness and medical education sit highest at 10%. Sleep and recovery, women's health and chronic conditions carry 5%, which the app marks as an estimate. The health niche as a whole sits 30% above fitness, lifestyle and food in the app, so the account's own numbers matter more than the sub-niche alone. Table 8A keeps the account fixed and changes only the sub-niche.

Health or fitness? Where your content belongs

The app prices health 30% above fitness, and the gap holds at every size. Table 8B prices the same account as Health and as Fitness at three sizes, with average views at about 29% of followers. At 15,000 followers the app quotes $256 as health and $197 as fitness. At 70,000 followers it quotes $1,200 against $923. Content about sleep, mental health, women's health, chronic conditions or medical education is Health. Workouts, training plans and supplements are Fitness; read the fitness page for those. Skincare that is really dermatology education sits closer to Health than to Beauty; read the beauty page for the rest of skincare. Pick the niche your content is, not the one that pays more.

Script reviews, whitelisting and longer approvals

Health brands often review scripts and claims before a post goes live, which adds rounds. Price your time for those rounds, not only for the video. This page prices the work and gives no advice on what a creator may say. Whitelisting lets a brand run your video as an ad from your account. The app prices it per 30 days: 30 days adds 22% of the base, 60 days 44%, 90 days 66% and 6 months 132%. Read usage rights for how to negotiate it, and how audience location moves a TikTok rate for the audience side.
