For a part in a commercial, the standard rate is around 500 dollars, or 560 dollars for the session fee. Then, every time the commercial runs, depending where it runs - if it runs in a major market like a big city, or if it runs in the middle of the night in a small town - there is a schedule of rates for payment. So, a child can make anywhere from the session payment if it never runs again, or into the thousands of dollars if it runs quite a bit.
