OnlyFans is a content subscription service based in London, England, United Kingdom.[3][4] Content creators can earn money from users who subscribe to their content—the "fans".[5] It allows content creators to receive funding directly from their fans on a monthly basis as well as one-time tips and the pay-per-view (PPV) feature.[6]

OnlyFans was launched in September 2016[9] as a platform for performers to provide clips and photos to followers for a monthly subscription fee. Tim Stokely founded the company alongside his older brother, Thomas, and with the help of a £10,000 loan from his father, Guy Stokely, who told him "Tim, this is going to be the last one".[10][11] His brother became the company's chief operating officer and his father is head of finance for OnlyFans.[10][11]

Forensic News described Radvinsky as a "porn entrepreneur (...) with a history of lawsuits and allegations of spam, theft, fraud, and drug dealing."[15] The Guardian described Radvinsky as a "US-based online pornography veteran who largely chooses to avoid the media."[16] Forbes revealed that in the late 1990s and early 2000s, Radvinsky ran a number of websites which claimed to provide "illegal" and "hacked" passwords to porn sites, including ones that were advertised as featuring underage performers and one for "the hottest bestiality site on the web."[17]

In 2019, OnlyFans introduced an extra safeguard into the account verification process so that a creator now has to provide a selfie headshot with their ID in the image in order to prove that the ID provided belongs to the account holder.[18] The site has over 24 million registered users and claims to have paid out US$725 million to its 450,000 content creators.[19]

After the site was mentioned by Beyoncé in the remix of the Megan Thee Stallion song, "Savage", in April 2020, CEO Tim Stokely claimed OnlyFans was "seeing about 200,000 new users every 24 hours and 7,000 to 8,000 new creators joining every day."[20] It was reportedly a 15 percent spike in traffic after the remix's release.[21][22] In the same line, "Savage" also mentioned Demon Time, a social media show, and shortly after the release of that song, OnlyFans announced a partnership with Demon Time to create a monetized virtual night club using the site's dual-screen live feature.[23]

In January 2020, 20-year-old American Kaylen Ward raised more than US$1 million in contributions to charity during the wild bushfires in Australia. OnlyFans teamed with her for their first partnership for a charitable cause.[24] This started a trend with some OnlyFans creators who have been raising money through their accounts.[25]

Bella Thorne set a new OnlyFans record when she earned over $1 million within 24 hours of joining the platform in August 2020 and more than $2 million in less than a week.[26] Her activities on OnlyFans sparked controversy after she allegedly promised nude photos for $200 but instead provided lingerie-clad photographs, leading to a slew of chargebacks. Following the debacle, new restrictions were introduced that limited the amount that other creators on the platform could charge and how quickly they could get paid,[27][28] though OnlyFans stated the restrictions were unrelated to Thorne but rather part of "an evolving process".[29] Thorne's actions caused backlash among sex workers who felt Thorne had selfishly appropriated their profession.[30][31]

Bhad Bhabie broke Thorne's OnlyFans record in April 2021 by earning over $1 million in the first 6 hours.[32] This event sparked criticism on social media about her subscribers given that she had turned 18 the previous week.[33]

As of June 2021, top OnlyFans creators Jem Wolfie, an Australian fitness model, and Mia Malkova, an American pornographic actress, reportedly earn over $7 million per month in subscription income through the platform.[34]
