Fees: a tie

Both keep 20% of what you earn. The difference in income isn't the fee, it's how many fans you get and how you handle messaging.

Getting fans

OnlyFans has almost no internal search: you bring traffic from social media. In return, it's the best-known brand and many fans trust paying there more.

Fansly has in-platform discovery with tags and sections, and allows free followers. It can help you grow even with little traffic of your own.

Tools

Both have subscriptions, paid messages (PPV), tips and custom content. Fansly adds subscription tiers with different prices. OnlyFans has a bigger audience used to paying.

Payouts

Both pay you to your own account, in your name, after a holding period. On OnlyFans you can turn on automatic weekly payouts. See how to get paid on OnlyFans.

Which one suits you

  • You already have a social audience: OnlyFans usually converts better.
  • You're starting from zero: Fansly can give you extra visibility early on.
  • You want to maximize: use both, with content and pricing designed for each.
