Nobody can tell you from data: OnlyFans publishes no earnings by gender, and no study has measured men. Across all creators, most accounts earn little and a small share earns most of the money. What you make depends on the audience you bring and the time you give it.

## What does the data say, in short?

Every figure below covers creators of all genders, because no figure for men exists.
They come from OnlyFans' own filings and statements and from peer-reviewed research, and
each one is an average or a share, not what you should expect:

| Measure | Figure | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Paid out per creator account, on average | about $104 a month | OnlyFans' audited year to November 2024; every account, including ones that never post |
| Paid out to creators in total | $6.3bn | The year to November 2025, across 5 million creator accounts, 2.5 million of them active |
| Creators who earn less from subscriptions than the average income in their country | 94% | A 2023 peer-reviewed study of 438,665 OnlyFans profiles, subscriptions only |
| Creators who have ever earned more than a million dollars | 5,076 creators earned more than $1m | Since 2016, about one account in a thousand |
| What male creators earn | No public data exists | Researchers confirm there is no demographic data on OnlyFans creators |

(Individual results vary. These figures describe specific creators or a stated sample, not a typical or guaranteed outcome. What you earn depends on your audience, the time you put in and the content you choose to make.)

If an agency or an app quotes you an average income for male creators, ask where it comes
from. The averages that circulate on agency and software blogs trace back to no data we
could find, and they contradict each other.

## Why is there no figure for male creators?

OnlyFans publishes totals, not distributions, and it does not record or publish the
gender of its creators. Its annual accounts give what fans paid and how many accounts
exist; they do not say who earns what. Researchers who study men on the platform say the
same: there is no statistical data on the demographic of OnlyFans content creators.

That leaves three kinds of number. Platform averages, which are real but cover everyone.
Research on other platforms, which splits by gender but measures a different business.
And an agency's own data about the creators it manages, which is the only source that
could describe men, and only the men that agency works with. We will publish ours when
it can carry the number of creators, the months it covers and the median, not the
average.

## What does the average OnlyFans creator make?

Less than most people expect. OnlyFans' audited accounts for the year to November 2024
show that creators were paid about $5.80bn across
4,634,000 creator accounts. That works out at
about $1,252 a year, or about $104 a month, per account.

Two things pull that average in opposite directions. The account count includes
accounts that never earn anything, which drags the average down. And a small number of
very large accounts earn a large share of the money, which drags it up. For the year to
November 2025, OnlyFans reported $6.3bn paid to creators and said that
2.5 million of its creator accounts were active. It has not published how it
defines active, so we do not divide one by the other.

Among people who actually receive payouts, averages are much higher. Ukraine's tax
service reported that 7,914 people in Ukraine were paid by OnlyFans in 2023,
about $16,650 each on average. That is one country and one year, all
genders, and still an average on a very uneven distribution.

(Individual results vary. These figures describe specific creators or a stated sample, not a typical or guaranteed outcome. What you earn depends on your audience, the time you put in and the content you choose to make.)

## How unequal are OnlyFans earnings?

Very. A 2023 peer-reviewed study estimated what 438,665 OnlyFans creators
made from subscriptions and found that 94% earned less than the average
income in their own country. OnlyFans' own count of creators who have ever earned more
than a million dollars is 5,076 creators earned more than $1m, in a platform
with millions of accounts.

The only large dataset that splits creator earnings by gender comes from a live-cam site,
not a subscription platform. In a study of every public tip on Chaturbate over two weeks
in 2022, over 69% of all tips went to the top 10% of performers. Among
performers labeled male, 53% got no tips at all in two weeks, against 3.4%
of those labeled female, and the median male-labeled performer earned
$0 an hour. The authors note that the male label includes many people who
were not streaming to earn, and a cam site is a different business from OnlyFans. It is
still the best evidence there is that, on an adult platform, most men who show up earn
little or nothing.

A median you may see quoted for OnlyFans, from a 2020 analysis of 803 accounts, does not
hold up: re-running the author's own data and code with photo posts counted gives a far
lower figure. [Male OnlyFans statistics](https://bunny-agency.men/male-onlyfans-statistics/) shows the
working.

## Can a guy make a thousand dollars a month on OnlyFans?

Some men do, and nobody publishes how many, on OnlyFans or anywhere else. What the
platform numbers do show is how far that is from the middle: across all creators,
OnlyFans paid about $104 a month per account on average in its last audited
year, and 94% of creators earn less from subscriptions than the average
income in their country. An account that earns a thousand dollars a month is well above
most of the platform.

(Individual results vary. These figures describe specific creators or a stated sample, not a typical or guaranteed outcome. What you earn depends on your audience, the time you put in and the content you choose to make.)

The accounts that get there bring an audience with them, post every day and sell in
their messages as well as through the subscription. None of that is a promise; it is
what the money depends on.

## What happens to a fan's payment before it reaches you?

The number that matters is what lands in your bank, and several parties take their part
first:

| Step | What happens |
|---|---|
| A fan pays | Sales tax or VAT is added on top for the fan, not deducted from your share |
| OnlyFans takes its fee | 20% of every fan payment |
| You are credited | 80% of every fan payment: subscriptions, paid messages and tips |
| An agency, if you have one | Its share, charged either on the gross fan payment or on your 80%; the contract says which |
| You withdraw | Paid in USD only, with a $20 minimum for most methods, after a 7-day holding period |
| Your bank converts it | Any currency conversion and its fees are yours |
| The tax office | Income tax where you live; OnlyFans may report identity and earnings to your local tax authority |

## What decides what a male creator earns?

Mostly things you control, and one you do not. The one you do not is the audience: as a
man you will sell mostly to other men, whatever your orientation, and [straight guys on
OnlyFans](https://bunny-agency.men/straight-guys-on-onlyfans/) looks at what that means.

The rest is yours:

- The audience you bring. Plan to bring your fans from other platforms: the size and fit
  of your following elsewhere sets the ceiling.
- How you price. Subscriptions can be free or cost $4.99 to $50 a month,
  and paid messages $3 to $100, so the subscription is only one of the
  prices you set.
- The conversation. Fans buy paid messages and tip in the chat, so how quickly and how
  personally you answer shapes what they spend.
- Time. An account that posts daily and answers quickly behaves differently from one
  that posts when there is time.
- What you are willing to make. Your limits change the plan and the audience it reaches.
  They are yours to set, and no number on this page is a reason to move them.

## How much could you make?

We cannot tell you from public data, and neither can anyone else. The [earnings
calculator](https://bunny-agency.men/earnings-calculator/) shows a range only where we have data for creators
with an audience like yours, and says so when we do not. If you already earn, the
application asks for your current numbers, and the first call is where we tell you,
in writing, what we think an agency could and could not change for your account.
