WGA, DGA and SAG-AFTRA minimums for the current contract year, arranged the way a deal gets made rather than the way the guilds publish them. Every figure is read from the guilds' own schedules — all of them checked against the source. Search across every table at once, or filter by guild and by what you're pricing.

How to read the sourcing
PRIMARYRead directly from the guild's own published schedule or agreement.
VERIFIED ×2Primary source, and independently reconciled against a separately published industry cheat sheet.
Figures that could not be verified to that standard were left off this page rather than published with a caveat.
What this doesn't cover
WGA Appendix A legacy formats: daytime serials, news, quiz and audience participation, comedy-variety per-program rates, narration.
SAG-AFTRA Interactive Media (video game) and localization agreements — a separate schedule, out of scope here.
Negotiated overscale. These are floors. Most deals of consequence close well above them.

Scale is the floor, not the deal.
These tables tell you what a company is required to pay. They don't tell you what to ask for, what to trade, or where the other side will actually move. If you're negotiating something specific — a pilot, a showrunner deal, an option, a brand agreement — that's the conversation worth having.
