How much does an explainer video cost?
$150–$1,200 is the range sellers actually publish for this on Fiverr — we haven't independently verified it yet.
Sixty seconds of explainer, and what each budget tier changes.
Fiverr's seller tiers are public and so are their criteria. What we can't tell you yet is whether paying up actually buys you more here — that needs us to commission the work, and we haven't.

Can you just do it yourself?
We haven't assessed this one yet. When we do, the question is whether the people reaching for a template are the same people who would otherwise hire someone — if they aren't, a big DIY audience doesn't actually compete for this work.
What a ranking here would turn on
The ranking will buy the same 60-second explainer from every tier with an identical script and compare storyboard quality, revision policy, and whether the source project file is included.
Four things worth settling first
None of these need us to have tested anything. They are the questions that decide whether the thing you get back is usable, and they are all cheaper to ask now than to argue about later.
- 1Approve a storyboard before any animation begins. Changes after that point are the expensive ones.
- 2Confirm whether voice-over is included or you supply it.
- 3Ask whether the source project file is included, so a future edit does not mean starting over.
- 4Check music licensing covers commercial use on the platforms you will publish to.
“how much does an explainer video cost” is not one audience
Our keyword pipeline strips these out before judging demand, because they are not people looking to hire. What is left after stripping them is the share we actually price for.

We have no ranking to offer here yet, so the honest thing is to send you to the marketplace rather than pretend otherwise. Anything outside $150–$1,200 is worth a second look before ordering.
