How much an OnlyFans agency charges

The usual model is called revenue share. Instead of a fixed monthly fee, the agency takes a share of what you earn each month. If a month goes well, it earns more, and if it goes badly, it earns less. We think it is the fairest model, because it makes the agency want the same thing you want: for the account to grow.

Some agencies add a fixed fee, a sign-up payment or a "training" you pay for before you start. That changes the split quite a lot, because they collect that part even if your account does not move.

Gross or net: the question almost nobody asks

OnlyFans keeps 20% of what your fans pay and you receive 80%. So there are two amounts the agency's percentage can be calculated on: what fans pay, or what reaches you. The difference shows up every month.

Take a month where your fans pay €1,000. OnlyFans keeps €200 and you receive €800. With a 30% rate, which we use only to do the maths and which is not our fee:

• calculated on gross, the agency takes €300 and you keep €500;
• calculated on net, it takes €240 and you keep €560.

That is €60 of difference in a small month, with the same percentage on paper. As the account earns more, the gap grows.

Why there is no standard price

If someone quotes you a fixed percentage without having seen your account, be a little wary. Running only the messages does not need the same team as also running social media, branding and content protection. Nor is starting an account from zero, which needs months of work before it earns, the same as organising one that already makes money. That is why the percentage normally depends on the plan and on the starting point.

The contract, in plain English

A good contract can be understood without a lawyer. It should state the percentage and what it is calculated on, when and how you pay the agency, which services are included, how much notice you need to give to end it and what happens to the access when you do. Plus a confidentiality clause covering your identity and your content.

Some things should stop you in your tracks. Having to pay to "secure your spot". Money that has to land in an account belonging to the agency. A contract that ties you in for years, or a percentage that can change without your signature. And if nobody can clearly explain how what you will pay is calculated, you already have your answer.

With us there is nothing up front and no fixed fees. The percentage depends on the plan and on where your account starts; we tell you before we begin and it goes in writing in the contract. If you ever want to stop, you give us 30 days' notice.
