Clipping services: what you can buy
Updated 13 October 2026 · Written by the SOVE7GN founders
Searches for "clipping services" have more than doubled recently. The phrase covers several different things, so here's what's on offer and what each one actually gets you.
Short answer: clipping services come in four main types: clip editing (files delivered to you), retainer clipping (clips posted on your accounts every day), CPM clipping campaigns (clippers post on their own accounts and get paid per view), and fan page management. SOVE7GN offers the last three: retainers from $2,000 a month, CPM campaigns from a $5,500 pool plus 15%, and fan pages where you keep 50 to 100% of the ad revenue.
The four types of clipping service
| Service | What you get | Typical pricing |
|---|---|---|
| Clip editing | Edited clip files | Per clip or per batch |
| Retainer clipping | Clips posted on your accounts daily | Monthly fee |
| CPM clipping campaign | Clips posted on many clipper accounts | Pool paid per 1,000 views, plus a fee |
| Fan page management | A fan page about you, run daily | Varies |
