How much does a 30-second social video ad cost?

A transparent guide to Stop Playin’s $99 short-ad package, $49.99 first-ad offer, deliverables, revisions and costs outside editing.

The direct answer

At Stop Playin, a custom 15–30 second social video ad costs $99, with a $49.99 introductory price for your first ad. That covers the defined editing package from supplied assets. It is the studio’s price, not a market-average estimate.

What you get for that price

The 15–30 second package includes a hook, short script, captions, music, your branding, vertical and square exports, and one revision round. A first draft is scheduled within 3 business days after the deposit, agreed brief and usable files arrive. The 1–2 minute package has a 5-business-day draft schedule and two revision rounds.

Why duration alone is not a quote

A 30-second edit made from usable photographs is a different production task from a 30-second commercial with a shoot, cast or custom generated scenes. Compare the source material, creative scope, export formats and revision allowance along with the length.

Budget for the complete job

Keep three costs separate: source production, editing and distribution. The listed package is editing. If you need new footage, ask for a production quote. If you will run paid ads, set the media budget separately. A finished video does not include reach or a promised number of leads.

How payment works

Agree on the brief and start date before paying. A 50% deposit starts the project; the balance is due after approval and before final delivery. The draft schedule starts only after the usable files, agreed brief and deposit arrive.

A useful quote checklist

  • Length and number of edits.
  • Supplied assets versus newly produced material.
  • Captions, music, brand elements and export formats.
  • Revision rounds and what counts as a scope change.
  • Delivery schedule, licensing and payment milestones.
