The complete OnlyFans statistics hub
A single, deeply-researched page covering everything measurable about OnlyFans in 2026 — users, creators, revenue, earnings distribution, demographics, traffic and engagement. No fluff, every figure sourced.
Figures combine OnlyFans' FY2024 company filings with 2025–2026 industry estimates. Last reviewed June 2026.
OnlyFans by the numbers
The headline figures that define the platform's scale heading into 2026.
From pandemic rocket to mature marketplace
OnlyFans grew gross fan spend 118% in 2021 during the pandemic. That curve has flattened to single-digit growth — but user and creator counts keep climbing, reshaping the economics for everyone on the platform.
Gross fan spend by year
Total money fans paid to creators (USD billions). *2025–2026 are industry projections.
Users vs. creators
Registered fan accounts have grown faster than the creator base, widening the audience per creator.
The money is real — but extremely concentrated
OnlyFans paid creators roughly $5.8 billion in 2024. Spread across 4.63 million creators, that averages about $131 per creator per month — but averages hide a brutally top-heavy distribution.
How payouts are distributed
Share of all creator earnings captured by each tier. The numbers overlap because tiers are nested.
What an "average" creator earns
The mean is dragged up by a tiny number of mega-earners. Most creators sit far below it.
The reality check: the median creator earns less than $6 a day before tax, and only about 4–5% of registered fans ever spend a single dollar.
Most-cited high earners
OnlyFans never publishes individual earnings, so every figure below is a media or industry estimate and figures vary wildly between sources. Treat them as directional, not gospel.
| # | Creator | Reported earnings* | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Sophie Rain | $43–63M / year | Built from scratch with no prior mainstream fame |
| 2 | Blac Chyna (Angela White) | ~$20M / month at peak | Deactivated her account in 2023; has disputed the headline figures |
| 3 | Bhad Bhabie (Danielle Bregoli) | ~$52M+ first years | Reported $1M in her first 6 hours |
| 4 | Bella Thorne | ~$11M / month | Earned $1M in her first 24 hours; prompted the $50 PPV cap |
| 5 | Iggy Azalea | ~$9.2M / month | Musician-led lifestyle content |
| 6 | Cardi B | ~$9.4M / month | Behind-the-scenes, no explicit content |
| 7 | Mia Khalifa | ~$6.4M / month | Bundle discounts + loyal fanbase |
| 8 | Erica Mena | ~$4.5M / month | High-ticket $25.99 subscription |
| 9 | Coco Austin | ~$9M / month | Reality-TV crossover audience |
| 10 | Belle Delphine | ~$1.2M / month | Internet-native viral persona |

Who is actually on OnlyFans?
The platform is overwhelmingly young men paying for content made by women. That single dynamic shapes pricing, niches and content strategy across the whole marketplace.
Subscriber gender
Estimates of male share range from 71% to 87% across sources.
Creator gender
Women dominate creation; male creators are a small but growing segment.
User age distribution
~61% of users are under 35. The 25–34 cohort is the single largest.
Top countries by traffic share
The US alone drives nearly half of all traffic and 60%+ of revenue.
Spend concentration by country (2025)
Estimated total fan spend, USD billions. The US dwarfs every other market.
| Country | 2025 spend | YoY |
|---|---|---|
| United States | $2.64B | +1.9% |
| United Kingdom | $0.53B | +1.9% |
| Canada | $0.36B | +5.2% |
| Italy | $0.36B | +24.5% |
| Mexico | $0.29B | +19.1% |
| Germany | $0.24B | +17.0% |
How fans actually use the platform
OnlyFans is a mobile-first, late-night, message-driven business. Subscriptions are just the front door — the real money is in direct messages, pay-per-view content and tips.
Where creator revenue comes from
Subscriptions are a minority of earnings. Direct, personalized monetization dominates.
Engagement snapshot
Behavioral signals from traffic and transaction data.
44 million pieces of content were posted in a single month (March 2024) — roughly 10 posts per creator.
A $7B marketplace run by ~46 people
OnlyFans is owned by Fenix International. Its company filings make it one of the most profitable social platforms per employee in the world.
A note on US dependence
The United States provides ~48% of traffic and over 60% of revenue. That concentration is a genuine business risk: a change from a major US payment processor or new federal regulation targeting adult platforms would hit the majority of OnlyFans' income.
How to read these numbers
OnlyFans is privately held and discloses only limited financials. Company-level figures (revenue, profit, user and creator counts) come from Fenix International's filings. Everything else — demographics, earnings distribution, traffic and individual earnings — is estimated by third-party trackers and reported ranges, which can differ substantially. We cross-reference multiple sources and prefer conservative figures.
