OnlyFans agency commission models compared
Four agencies can quote "40%" and cost four different amounts. The basis (net after OnlyFans' 20%, or gross) changes the cost by a quarter. A range (30–60%, 25–55%, 25–50% are the published ranges in this index) can mean anything until the agency says what moves you inside it. A post-exit commission adds months of cost after you leave. And what the percentage is charged on (subscriptions, tips, customs, other platforms) decides whether the agency earns from money it never touched. Read the model, not the number.

Index snapshot, 12 September 2026. OF Agency Ranking scores 19 OnlyFans management (OFM) agencies on the terms they publish, under methodology v1.0. Current #1: FantasyRise, 9.1/10.
Net or gross
OnlyFans keeps 20%. "Of net" is a share of the remaining 80%; "of gross" is a share of the whole. On $10,000 gross, 40% of net is $3,200 and 40% of gross is $4,000. Of nineteen scored agencies, only FantasyRise and Foxy Studios publish a rate together with its basis (FantasyRise: net, defined; Foxy Studios: 45% after the platform fee). OnModelStudios publishes net for its chat-only tier and no basis for its 25–55% range, Bunny explains the net mechanism in general terms without stating it as its own clause, and Aruna publishes its rate and its basis, 60/40 of net, only in the llms.txt file at the root of its site. The index scores a rate without a basis as half a disclosure, because it is.
Fixed rate or range
A fixed rate is the simplest to compare. A range is honest only with a rule attached. FantasyRise publishes the rule (the upper end applies when the agency fronts startup costs including equipment); OnModelStudios publishes that the rate depends on services and whether you start from zero, with 25% chat-only and 50% full as "typical starting points"; Bunny publishes "light management near the bottom, full-service near the top". Before signing, get your number and the condition for changing it in the contract.
Tiered by revenue
Some agencies lower the rate as monthly revenue rises: 50% to $10,000, 40% above. Fair when the tiers are written down; ask whether the lower rate applies to the whole month or only to revenue above the threshold, which is a large difference at the boundary.
What the percentage is charged on
Read the definition of "revenue" in the contract. It can be OnlyFans only, or all platforms, or "all income from the creator's brand", which reaches brand deals and other platforms the agency does not run. Tips, customs and referral income are the lines to check. An agency running your inbox has a claim on PPV and tips it sells; it has a weaker claim on a brand deal you negotiated.
Ask for the answer line by line, because "revenue" is one word covering seven different things:
| Revenue line | Who usually produced it | What to ask |
|---|---|---|
| Subscriptions | The account, continuously | Almost always inside the commission. Confirm it is charged of net, not of gross. |
| Pay-per-view in DMs | The chat team, directly | Inside the commission at every agency that runs the inbox. This is where most managed revenue is made. |
| Tips | Usually the chat team, sometimes the fan unprompted | Ask explicitly. A tip after a chat conversation and a tip on a public post are not the same thing, and few contracts separate them. |
| Customs | The creator produces, the team sells | Ask whether the production time is yours and the percentage theirs, and whether the rate differs. |
| Bundles and expired-fan campaigns | The team | Normally inside. Ask whether a rebill on an expired fan counts as a new sale. |
| Brand deals and sponsorships | Often the creator, or an outside manager | The line most worth fixing in writing. Ask whether the agency takes a share of deals it did not source. |
| Other platforms and external income | The creator | If the contract says "all income from the creator's brand", it reaches income the agency never touched. Narrow it to the platforms it manages. |
None of the nineteen agencies in this index publishes a line-by-line answer to this. What the scored sites publish is the percentage and, for two of them, its basis; the scope of "revenue" is left to the agreement in every case. That is a finding, not an oversight in the research: the commission database lists what each one does print.
Exclusivity. The clause that decides scope is often not the commission clause but the exclusivity clause. Exclusivity for the platforms the agency runs is ordinary. Exclusivity over the creator, over every platform and over brand deals is a different agreement, and it is the mechanism that turns "all income from your brand" into a claim on work the agency did not do. The clause-by-clause version is in the contract clauses checklist.
With or without commission after exit
A post-exit clause keeps the agency's percentage running on some base for a period after termination. It is the model's hidden cost: on $8,000 net a month a six-month tail at 20% is $9,600 after you have left. One scored agency publishes that it has none; the others publish nothing. The post-exit guide has the wording to look for.
The same account, four models
| Model | Quoted | Agency takes, month | You keep, month | After a 6-month exit at 20% tail |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Net, no tail | 40% | $3,200 | $4,800 | $0 |
| Gross, no tail | 40% | $4,000 | $4,000 | $0 |
| Net, with tail | 40% | $3,200 | $4,800 | $9,600 |
| Net, "all revenue" incl. a $2,000 brand deal | 40% | $4,000 | $6,000 of $12,000 | $0 |
On $10,000 gross OnlyFans revenue. The same "40%" costs between $3,200 and $4,000 a month and between $0 and $9,600 on the way out.
How to use this
Open the commission database for the published rate and basis, the contract terms database for the exit and tail, and the calculator for your own figures. Then ask the agency for the definition of revenue in its contract, in writing.
Is commission on net or gross better for the creator?
Net, always, at the same percentage: the platform's 20% comes off before the agency's share. A 40% net rate costs the creator less than a 33% gross rate on the same account.
Do OnlyFans agencies take a cut of tips and customs?
Usually yes, because the chat team sells them. Whether they take a cut of income from other platforms or brand deals depends on the contract's definition of revenue, which is the clause to read.
