What Is OnlyFans?
OnlyFans is a subscription-based platform headquartered in the U.K. Content creators earn money from fans who subscribe to their content. While the platform was originally built with X-rated content and sex workers in mind, it has since expanded to include exclusive access to tons of other types of content, from comedy to cooking to fitness and beyond. While the platform has enjoyed modest growth since its launch in 2016, COVID-19 really took it to new heights.
How Much Does the Average OnlyFans User Earn?
The average OnlyFans creator earns about $180 per month. In other words, not much. According to research by XRUS, the top 1% of OnlyFans content creators account for 33% of all the money in play on the platform; the top 10% of all OnlyFans accounts control nearly 75% of the money. While the top OnlyFans stars make a decent side income (or full-time earnings) on the platform, it's not the norm. As such, if you want to earn more than the average OnlyFans creator, you need to really work the platform through consistently posting, growing your fan base, and finding ways to stand out.
To get more attention on your OnlyFans account, it really helps to cultivate a following on social media platforms like TikTok or Instagram. Many OnlyFans creators will link to their OnlyFans accounts in their bio and share teasers for their OnlyFans content to draw in more fans. Since OnlyFans takes 20% of the income you earn on the platform, it's important to continue to bring in new followers and fans, as well as price your subscriptions to account for the 20% fee.
While many of the highest-paid OnlyFans creators are already celebrities like Cardi B, Blac Chyna, and Tyga, it is possible to bring in good money on the platform if you work for it. If you don't have celebrity to fall back on, you'll need to make sure that your content is exactly what your subscribers are looking for, you're posting content on a regular basis, you're regularly working on cultivating and nurturing new fans, and you're adding value to your content so your fans stay engaged and are constantly craving more.
15 OnlyFans Top Earners
Let's take a look at the top earners on OnlyFans right now. As we've already mentioned, most of the top earners were already celebrities before jumping on OnlyFans, so it shouldn't be surprising that they have enormous fan bases willing to pay top dollar for exclusive content from them. Don't look at the top earners on the platform as competition. Instead, use their stories as inspiration and advice on how you can also use OnlyFans to generate revenue.
As a content creator on OnlyFans, you get to set your own rates and decide what type of content you want to create and when. Unlike social media platforms, OnlyFans allows creators to do what they're interested in doing, not catering to a specific brand's idea of what's best. OnlyFans gives content creators the freedom to be who and what they want to be.
Let's dive into our list of OnlyFans top earners. All numbers below are estimated and collated through various media outlets and research reports.
1. Blac Chyna
Subscription Rate: $19.99/month

Reality TV star and model Blac Chyna is currently a top earner on OnlyFans due, in part, to setting her subscription rates high in the beginning. Now, however, you can subscribe to her account for a reasonable $19.99 per month. She posts different types of content, including X-rated photos and videos, some of which are specifically geared toward specific fetishes (like feet).

Bella Thorne joined OnlyFans and immediately started making bank. She made $1 million on her first day on the platform and had hit the $2 million mark by the end of her first week. Thorne sparked controversy after joining the app, charging fans for photos marketed as nudes when she was actually wearing lingerie. This led to OnlyFans regulating the amount a creator could charge on a post. She also found herself the subject of irritation from sex workers who had become OnlyFans creators after COVID-19 made it impossible for them to continue working safely since she was drawing attention and income from those who needed it to survive.
