It is likely that lately, you have heard about the famous OnlyFans platform. Although the site has been reviewed with praise and criticism, you have to consider that, regardless of the community’s opinion, one thing is clear: it is extremely successful.
The platform has managed to generate gigantic sums of money both for itself and for the creators working on it. This has left a question in our minds: How much money can a creator earn on OnlyFans?
OnlyFans is not like other networks: its content is completely focused on adults and therefore targets a different audience. It is common that among its profiles, you can get images and videos of erotic categories that seek to please different demands and categories (almost anyone we can imagine).
However, unlike other platforms, the content is not a free trend. We can find one or another profile that we can access without any problem, but most of them ask us to pay a monthly subscription to the wall of the content creator.
The amount to be paid is designated by the profiles on the platform, and 80% of the profit goes to the content creator.
This advantage concerning the platform is considered one of its most striking aspects: it can generate large amounts of money if your content is liked by the community. And regardless of whether the profit is not that big, OnlyFans as a company will always come out well with 20% of the revenue.
This is so great that it is estimated that between 2020 and 2021 OnlyFans revenue grew by 160%, reaching a profit of 932 million dollars from the content of its creators.
On the other hand, profiles within the platform managed to earn a total of 3.8 billion dollars in 2021. Although it seems like an easy job, one thing is very clear in this world: having a profile does not mean that we will start getting free money.
Is it easy money to work from OnlyFans?
Obviously, seeing the type of content that dominates the platform, many believe that working on this page is something simple. However, maintaining good management of the OnlyFans profile requires not only time but also perseverance and experience.
You must be aware of subscribers’ questions, interact with them, generate content regularly and be aware of the statistics to verify what needs to be changed.
Once this time and experience are invested, the success that a profile can achieve is unmatched by any other type of investment. Not all creators can achieve the same success, but some generate several million dollars a month by applying good monetization.
The statistics speak for the platform. The German portal Statista has studied the profiles that have managed to generate the most money within OnlyFans taking into account only the figures for 2022. These figures have placed Blac Chyna as the creator with more income, with a total of $ 20 million per month.
Following this, we can see Bella Thorne, who had previously also broken the record for most money earned in 24 hours. In that time, she had managed to reach a total of 1 million dollars, and currently her maximum monthly income is 11 million.
In slightly lower leagues, we can’t fail to mention the star streamer of the site: Amouranth. This popular girl has an OnlyFans profile and does not usually hide her income from the platform at all. In an interview, the famous streamer and content creator indicated that the most she has achieved every month is a total of 2 million dollars.
Seeing these figures, any user can be impressed by the sums. But the truth is that these amounts are only reserved for celebrities who already had a strong following outside of OnlyFans.
An average profile earns much lower earnings, being an amount of just $145 per month. The biggest reason is that you need to generate content often and not engage in constant consumption, showing that it is not easy for everyone to make as much money as Bella Thorne or Cardi B.
Other statistics from the XSRUS portal give us an approximation more in line with the amount earned on OnlyFans by the creators. The top 1% of the site generates the most revenue, with a total of 33% profit, while the top 10% generate up to 73% of the platform’s money.
What other sites similar to OnlyFans are there?
Although the platform is known for its pornographic content, it should be noted that the type of content is much more varied than it appears to be. OnlyFans initially sought to attract fans and supporters of certain personalities, which is why it is common to see profiles of chefs, fitness trainers, musicians, and artists.
This platform works as a form of micro-patronage, but it has managed to directly earn the label of a “pornographic” page. For this reason, other options on the market do not have this qualification, such as Patreon.
This platform has a similar operation: content is uploaded regularly and to view it you must pay a subscription. Although Patreon, in some cases, also has sexual content, it is much less frequent.
