OnlyFans, the social networking platform, was launched back in 2016 but recently, the platform got a lot more attention than it has been getting through its four-year lifetime. The COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic and the consequent stay at home rules made OnlyFans the go-to website for people trying to find new ways to entertain themselves. Last month, Beyoncé mentioned OnlyFans in Megan Thee Stallion’s remix of her hit song ‘Savage’, and that alone made the platform see a 15% rise in traffic within only 24 hours of the remix being released.
So, Who Can Use Onlyfans?
Many people may wonder if Onlyfans is just made for celebrities, socialites, or people who already have an online following but the truth is, anyone and everyone can use the OnlyFans platform to make money. Anyone who has exclusive content that is meant only for their fans (whether it’s 5 or 5 million fans) can use this platform to sell their content.
How Much Money Do People Make Selling Exclusive Content on OnlyFans?
The amount of money you can make on the OnlyFans platform varies. Each subscription costs anywhere between $4.99 and $49.99; to which the creator of the content is entitled to 80% of all monthly subscriptions. 20% of all monthly subscriptions are paid to the company. The average amount of money a person could earn from OnlyFans is estimated to be between $1499 and $7495 per month but some people make a lot more.

A lot of people have taken to YouTube to share their money-making experiences with their viewers. Some of these YouTubers give us a little insight into exactly how much they made when they tried using the platform.
Makayla Samountry, a YouTuber with 28.8k subscribers, revealed to her viewers that she had made $100 from 5 of her latest OnlyFans subscribers. Makayla got 5 new subscribers in 24 hours. We are not sure if she gets an average of 5 new OnlyFans subscribers every day or this instance was unique to that day only but we’ll be sure to find out and let you know. In a previous YouTube video, Makayla reported that she made $200 in a week from her OnlyFans account. Another YouTuber by the name Shanghai Shawty claimed to have made $12,000 a month from OnlyFans without having to show nudes or anything revealing.
Are There Celebrities on OnlyFans?
Several celebrities have recently joined the platform. Entrepreneur, Blac Chyna is said to have opened an OnlyFans account in April and announced it on her Instagram page by posting an up-close video of her feet stomping on some grapes. This video has so far gotten over 1m views on her IG account.
Rapper, The Dream, took advertising and self-promotion on OnlyFans to the next level. Instead of posting his photos or nudes as most people do, The Dream decided to use his OnlyFans account to promote his new album, Sextape4. Safaree, who’s OnlyFans subscription is $20.99 a month and his wife Erica Mena, who’s subscription goes for $29.99 a month, recently announced on Instagram that they had joined the platform and that they had interesting things to share with only their fans.
In a developing story, some adult content creators (who were the bulk of people with OnlyFans accounts before the platform gained some popularity) have recently gone online to tell people that they were slowly being kicked off of the OnlyFans platform. Allie Awesome is one of many adult content creators who reported that their OnlyFans accounts were deactivated with no good enough reason. The truthfulness of these allegations is yet to be confirmed.
Moral of the story…you can make a lot of money on OnlyFans.
