Why LoyalFans creators start looking at other sites
LoyalFans is a real, paying platform with a loyal following of its own. Creators like its live streaming, its store for one off sales, paid messages, tiered memberships and its referral program. If it works for you, keep it.
The creators who look around usually do so for reasons the fee does not touch:
- A set shows up on a mirror site and nothing in the file says which subscriber copied it.
- Buyers are often throwaway accounts, and outside the states and countries that force an age check, nobody has proven they are adults.
- Chargebacks arrive weeks after a sale, from accounts that never had to show who they are.
- Partners and guests on camera mean release forms and ID copies sitting in a folder on your laptop, waiting for a records request.
- Traffic is slower than on the biggest platforms, so a second page with better protection costs you little and can protect what you already earn.
None of these is unique to LoyalFans. They are the default on most creator platforms, which is why the protection layer matters more than the logo when you pick a second home.
Sites like LoyalFans compared on fee, payouts and protection
LoyalFans does not publish a simple rate card, so its figures below come from consistent third party reporting. Other figures come from each platform's public pages. Fees and rules change, so check before you move content.
| Platform | Platform fee | Creator share | Payouts | Live streaming | Fan age check | Partners on camera |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| LoyalFans | 20 percent (reported) | 80 percent | Twice a month, $50 minimum (reported) | Yes | Not stated as a general rule | Per its own rules |
| OnlyFans | 20 percent | 80 percent | On request after a holding period | Yes | Where local law requires it | Verified co-creator or release form |
| Fansly | 20 percent (reported) | 80 percent | On request (reported) | Yes | Where local law requires it | Per its own rules |
| Fanvue | 20 percent, promotional rate for new creators | 80 percent, 85 on promotion | Per its own rules | Not stated as a general rule | Not stated as a general rule | Per its own rules |
| OnlyEighteen | 20 percent, same on every plan | 80 percent | On request once your ID is verified, methods by country, crypto where available | Yes, watched only by verified fans | Every fan, every region, before the first purchase | Own ID check, live selfie and a consent per release |
The share you keep is the same across the main sites like LoyalFans. So the real question is what the platform does with its 20 percent once a fan has paid.
What OnlyEighteen adds that LoyalFans does not do by default
- Verified buyers only. Every fan passes an age check before the first purchase and before the first explicit post, in every region and not only where a state law demands it. It takes about a minute and happens once.
- Leaks you can trace. Every photo and video carries a watermark with the viewing fan's handle plus a hidden ID. When a copy appears, you know whose view it came from and can block that account.
- Leak scan and takedowns. Pro, Studio and Agency scan other sites for your handle and those IDs, and a takedown notice is ready in one click. Every creator gets 3 notices a month without a plan. The process is laid out on OnlyFans DMCA takedowns and leak removal, and it works the same for content you first posted on LoyalFans.
- Consent per release. Anyone in your content gets an invite link, passes their own ID and live selfie check and signs a consent for each release. The platform keeps those as 2257 records, so the folder on your laptop can go.
- Private by default. Creator profiles stay out of search engines, and you can block your home region per profile.
- Real people only. Deepfakes, face swaps and images of people who did not consent are banned in our content guidelines.
What you give up matters too. LoyalFans has its own fan base, a referral program and years of creators already on it. OnlyEighteen has no discovery feed, so your first fans arrive through links you share. That is the honest reason to start with a second page rather than a full move.
What a second page earns next to LoyalFans
Same fee, same split. Take a hypothetical page with 45 subscribers at $10 a month. That is $450 in fan payments, and you keep $360 on either platform. Tips, live stream tips and pay per view sets follow the same 80 percent.
The money you gain comes from what stops leaving: fans who cancel once your sets appear free on a forum, chargebacks from accounts nobody verified, and the $69 or more a month that many creators pay a separate takedown service. You can join and earn without a plan. Plans add tools and never raise the fee.
| Plan | Price | What it adds |
|---|---|---|
| No plan | 20 percent fee only | Every earning tool, watermarks, 3 takedown notices a month |
| Pro | $49 a month, or $24 a month billed yearly | Fan CRM, 30 mass messages, leak scan, 50 notices |
| Studio | $149 a month, or $74 a month billed yearly | Unlimited co-performer invites, 3 team seats, automations, 300 notices |
| Agency | $499 a month, or $249 a month billed yearly | Up to 25 creators, consent dashboard, CSV payout reports, 1,500 notices |
Every tool is explained on creator tools, and the full plan breakdown is on pricing.
How to add OnlyEighteen next to LoyalFans
Keep your LoyalFans page running while you test. A month of numbers from both pages will tell you more than any comparison table.
- Build your page preview on the home page, then sign up with email and password.
- Pass the ID and live selfie check from your phone. Your profile goes live after approval, usually the same day.
- Send an invite link to anyone who appears in your content, so their consent is on file before you repost older sets. Couples can use the couple account setup.
- Post a welcome set and create a trial link for fans who already follow you.
- Share the link on your socials and tell existing fans where the new sets live, within each platform's rules on promoting other sites.
- Turn on the leak scan once a few posts are up, so copies are found before they spread.
