How This Is Calculated

How We Calculate Your OnlyFans Earnings

OnlyFans monetization is subscription-based with multiple revenue streams. Our calculator estimates:

Monthly Earnings = (Subscribers × Subscription Price × 0.80) + Tips + PPV Revenue

The calculation factors in:

  1. Subscriber Count: Your active paying subscriber base is the primary income driver.
  2. Subscription Price: Pricing strategy varies (free page with PPV vs. paid subscription). The platform-wide average is $7.99–$14.99/month.
  3. OnlyFans Commission: OnlyFans retains 20% of all earnings. Creators keep 80%.
  4. Additional Revenue: Tips and pay-per-view content typically add 30–50% to base subscription revenue.

Important: OnlyFans earnings vary enormously. The top 1% of creators earn the majority of platform revenue. Success requires consistent content creation, active promotion on other platforms, and audience engagement.
