The Kissing Booth Breakthrough and Beyond
Back in 2017, Jacob portrayed the brooding bad boy Noah in The Kissing Booth, a role that significantly raised his profile. He continued to embody the character in two subsequent sequels. While Netflix hasn’t publicly disclosed his precise earnings from these films, it’s reasonable to assume that he earned a substantial income, particularly by the time of the third and final movie.
Lead actors in HBO productions like Euphoria reportedly earn salaries ranging from $150,000 to $1 million per episode, while supporting actors typically average between $50,000 to $150,000. Although Jacob’s specific salary remains undisclosed, it is reasonable to infer that he entered the six-figure earnings bracket by the airing of Season 2 in 2022.
High-Profile Brand Collaborations
As Jacob’s celebrity ascends, so does his market value. Celebrities have the potential to earn anywhere from a few thousand dollars to a staggering $50 million for a single Instagram post in collaboration with a brand. Jacob has seamlessly embraced this trend.
In 2021, he emerged as one of the prominent figures in Calvin Klein’s spring campaign. Following this, in 2022, he took on the role of the face for Hugo Boss’s The Scent Le Parfum. Additionally, he was appointed as a brand ambassador for the prestigious Swiss watch brand Tag Heuer, joining the ranks of A-listers such as Ryan Gosling, Naomi Osaka, and Patrick Dempsey.
In a 2022 conversation with GQ, Jacob disclosed that he relocated to Los Angeles after completing the first Kissing Booth film. During that time, he occasionally “parked his 2004 Mitsubishi on Mulholland Drive and slept there.”
Facing a scarcity of job opportunities and with a meager $400 or $800 left in his bank account, Jacob considered Euphoria as his final audition before contemplating a return home to replenish his finances and take a breather.

As of 2023, Celebrity Net Worth estimates Jacob Elordi’s total net worth at $4 million. This marks a significant leap from the modest $400–$800 he had in his bank account before securing his role in Euphoria back in 2019.
