Jukin Media

What Jukin Media is

Jukin Media makes user-generated video available to third parties through licensing and syndication. Its web licensing marketplace lets buyers search by keyword and filter clips by category, tone, usage, footage type, orientation, date, and duration. Search results include thumbnails with autoplay, preview downloads, playlists, and video details. Buyers can license footage per clip, with Personal at $49, paid once, Basic Pro at $149, paid once, and Super Pro at $299, paid once. These three plans cover editorial use only. Commercial use requires contacting Jukin, and custom rights can be requested from the Licensing Team through a Custom Partnership Agreement. Rights depend on the listing: some may identify third-party material, such as music, that is unavailable to license through Jukin and point buyers to its rights holder. Discount Pack credits apply to Personal, Basic Pro, and Super Pro Digital Editorial licenses; unused credits expire one year after purchase. For order and download questions, the Licensing Marketplace Help Center directs customers to Licensing Support. Jukin says it was founded in 2009 and is headquartered in Los Angeles.
