Kendall Jenner, the face of Daniel Wellington in 2017, is reportedly paid $500,000 for a single post on Instagram.

Tudor and Daniel Wellington stars earn up to half a million dollars per Instagram post

Remember the days when social media was a virtually free way of advertising your watches and retail services?

That may still be true if you are posting your own special offers to a few thousand followers, but using the power of celebrity to boost your image is more expensive today than any of the traditional media promotions like TV, radio and print advertising it has displaced.

An Instagram Rich List compiled by Hopper HQ, a UK-based company that runs social media accounts on behalf of companies and individuals, shows that the world’s biggest stars are paid hundreds of thousands of pounds for a single post.

Tudor’s brand ambassador David Beckham is the highest paid British celebrity, and earns $300,000 for a single post, according to Hopper HQ.

Brazilian football star Neymar, who frequently posts on behalf of Gaga Milano watches, is said to earn $600,000 per post. Gaga Milano is distributed in the UK by Argento Fine Products.
