## Worked examples

**Worked examples, one clip on a live campaign**

| Campaign | App | Views | One clip | Rule |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| [Ricky Hilfiger, Clipping](https://clippingalpha.com/campaigns/ricky-hilfiger/clipping) | TikTok | 50,000 | $90 | 10% fee |
| [Slayground, Horror Movie Trailer Clipping](https://clippingalpha.com/campaigns/a24/slayground-horror-movie-trailer) | TikTok | 240,000 | $270 | $300 cap |
| [Know My Name \[FAKER / LOL ESPORTS CLIPPING\]](https://clippingalpha.com/campaigns/know-my-name/clipping) | TikTok | 1,000 | Nothing | 2,000 min views |
| [Bebe Rexha, Clipping](https://clippingalpha.com/campaigns/bebe-rexha/clipping) | TikTok | 50,000 | $87.50 before fees | Fee not published |

## The math

1. A clip under the campaign's minimum views pays nothing.
2. Above it, the views times the rate per 1,000 views is the clip's pay.
3. A clip under the minimum payout pays nothing, and a clip over the cap is paid the cap.
4. The clipping platform's fee comes off what is left. A platform that publishes no fee shows the figure before any fee.
5. Every clip adds up, paid from the budget left, and the platform pays out from its minimum withdrawal.

## Common questions

### How is clipping pay worked out?

Views times the rate per 1,000 views, then the campaign's minimums and cap, less the 10% platform fee. 50,000 views at $2 per 1,000 pay $90 on the Ricky Hilfiger clipping campaign.

### What does a cap per clip do?

It stops one clip's pay. On the A24 clipping campaign a clip stops at $300, so 240,000 views pay the same as 120,000.

### What happens under the minimum views?

The clip pays nothing. The Know My Name clipping campaign counts a clip from 2,000 views, so a clip with 1,000 views earns no pay.

### What if a clipping platform publishes no fee?

The figure is before any fee. Promote.fun publishes none, so 50,000 views on the Bebe Rexha clipping campaign show $87.50 before fees.
