LoyalFans: Read Before Choosing Your Adult Content Platform!

Platform & Audience.

LoyalFans is a fanclub platform very much like OnlyFans, but started by veterans of the adult industry (it was formerly known as NexoCams before rebranding). It caters almost exclusively to adult content creators and their fan communities. A key selling point of LoyalFans is that it offers better discoverability for creators compared to OnlyFans. The platform allows creators to add keywords/tags to their profile, and it has a browsing feature where users can search and stumble across creator profiles by those tags or categories. In fact, “users can browse through content creator profiles and decide who they want to follow” on LoyalFans, which is a notable difference from OnlyFans’ closed-gates approach. This makes LoyalFans somewhat more friendly for newcomers without a huge social media following. The platform itself can channel some fans your way.

Features

LoyalFans offers a full suite of content options for creators:

  • Subscriptions: Creators can set a monthly subscription price for access to their feed (photos, videos, etc.), just like OF. Fans pay recurring for the premium content.
  • Live Streaming & Interaction: LoyalFans has built-in live stream capability, so creators can broadcast live video to their subscribers or offer pay-per-minute private shows. Real-time engagement can help deepen fan connections.
  • Messaging and Customs: Direct messaging is available, and LoyalFans expands on this with features like voice notes (creators can send recorded voice messages in DMs) and the ability to sell personalized video shoutouts. This means you can take paid requests for short custom videos or audio messages easily through the platform.
  • Clips and Media Sales: In addition to the subscription feed, creators can sell individual photo sets or clips. LoyalFans supports one-off purchases so fans can buy specific premium posts without subscribing, if the creator enables that. This is a great option for passive income. Staying consistent and keeping your SEO in mind will absolutely help.
  • Tips and Shoutouts: Fans can tip posts or send tips in chat. LoyalFans also has a “promo shoutout” system: creators can pay to have their profile or content shouted out on the site for extra exposure, and even a referral program to earn from bringing in new creators or fans.
  • Geoblocking & Privacy: LoyalFans gives creators fine control to block regions – it touts “more granular geoblocking”, meaning you can block not just by country but perhaps by state or city (useful if you want to hide from your local area). This is a step up from OnlyFans, which only allows country-level blocking.

The user experience on LoyalFans is comparable to Fansly (feeds, profiles, etc.), and the site is continuously adding features to compete. LoyalFans’ community is almost entirely adult content-focused. They also host educational webinars (e.g. they’ve had successful creators teach classes) to help new models succeed.

Payout & Commission

LoyalFans uses the standard 80/20 revenue split – creators keep 80% and the platform takes 20%. The payout schedule is a bit different: LoyalFans pays out twice a month (bi-monthly), rather than on-demand. Specifically, payouts occur on the 1st and 15th of each month (this is common for many adult platforms). Creators must have at least $50 earned to be included in the pay period payout. If you don’t meet the $50 minimum by a pay date, your earnings roll over to the next. This schedule is somewhat less flexible than OnlyFans (which allows request at $20 anytime), but many creators don’t mind bi-monthly payouts as long as it’s regular. LoyalFans supports a variety of payout methods: ACH/direct deposit for U.S., wire transfers, SEPA for EU, and likely eWallets like Paxum for international users. One thing to note: since LoyalFans doesn’t do on-demand withdrawals, creators need to be aware of the fixed pay dates – it’s reliable but not instant. On the positive side, LoyalFans paying on a schedule means you don’t have to remember to cash out; if your balance is over $50 at the cut-off, it will be sent automatically. The platform’s financial terms are overall comparable to OnlyFans aside from the timing and threshold differences. Similar to Fansly, LoyalFans also cares about its creators and fights chargebacks. According to their section 18.5 subsectione e.:

Tips are chargeable when made. We will not return a tip made from your account except in situations that we consider, in our sole discretion, to be extraordinary.”

Content Policy

LoyalFans explicitly welcomes adult content and was built with that in mind. As such, the company has not signaled any intention to ban explicit content. Allowed content on LoyalFans is similar to OnlyFans: consensual adult nudity, sex acts, and some fetish content are fine. Prohibited content will likewise include anything non-consensual, any depiction of minors (even roleplay implication), bestiality, extreme violence, and so forth (the standard legal no-go’s). Because LoyalFans uses traditional payment processors, it bans the same extreme fetish categories that OnlyFans does (e.g. urine/scat, extreme gore, incest roleplay, etc. would violate their terms or card rules). We don’t have a published banned-word list for LoyalFans, but creators should assume that anything that would get you banned on OF would also be problematic on LoyalFans. One differentiator: LoyalFans might be a bit more flexible with fetish content presentation. Being a smaller platform closely working with creators, they may handle issues more case-by-case rather than by automated word-filters. They have a reputation for responsive support (for example, answering creator questions or issues faster than OF’s often-criticized support). Additionally, LoyalFans, by virtue of its name, emphasizes ethical fan/creator interactions – things like escorting or prostitution services are banned on the platform (just as they are on OF) and using the platform to arrange in-person meetups for pay is not allowed. In summary, LoyalFans’ terms of service align with mainstream adult content standards: very permissive of sexual content but with firm lines drawn to satisfy legal and financial partners. Creators can feel confident that standard porn content is welcome, and the platform’s adult-industry leadership means they strongly stand by the creators (for instance, it’s unlikely LoyalFans would ever ban porn unless forced by outside factors). Always check their official AUP for specific restrictions, but in practice LoyalFans is a safe haven for the same range of content you’d post on OnlyFans (minus the worry of sudden corporate policy flip-flops).
