Ami Gan, CEO of OnlyFans, has stated that the company is a privately held business and is not looking to go public or pursue an IPO. She has emphasized that OnlyFans is a subscription-based social media platform for those 18 and over, where creators can monetize content they would otherwise share for free. Gan has noted that the platform has paid out over $10 billion to creators since its founding in 2016, with creators earning 80% of all earnings. She has also said that the company does not sell third-party ads or monetize user data, and that it has no plans to introduce AI-generated characters, focusing instead on human-led content. Gan has addressed the company's content moderation and safety practices, stating that all content on the platform is reviewed by human moderators and that the company rejects up to 60% of creator applications each month due to insufficient information. She has described OnlyFans as a "creator-first" business and has said that the company is committed to keeping adult content on the platform, following a 2021 decision to reverse a proposed ban on sexually explicit content after creator backlash. Gan has also discussed the company's growth, noting that OnlyFans is in over 100 countries and was named by the Financial Times as one of the four fastest-growing companies in Europe.
“A lot of it is much more valuable than people thought. It's because you have social media where we're not used to paying for content, and now you have a new wave of platforms with OnlyFans being one of the first to really push paywall content and subscription content.”
“Creators are finding ways to truly monetize their community without relying on traditional brand deals — whether through a platform, their own app, or subscription offerings.”
“That dynamic shows the power of creators and their communities and audiences, and explains why some paid-content models work while much other content remains free.”
“OnlyFans is a platform that truly allows creators who are also athletes to connect with their fans — it's basically a modern-day fan club where you're developing digital connections and can direct message any creator you subscribe to.”
“We have well over 200 athletes, if not more, on the platform — those are professionals using OnlyFans to build their community and monetize in ways beyond traditional social channels.”
“We are an 18-and-over platform, so everyone using OnlyFans is an adult; creators share training routines, nutrition, behind-the-scenes content and other personal access that fans want.”
“OFTV is our free-to-view streaming platform and app available on Apple, Android and Smart TVs, and creators can submit content that is reviewed by us — it's become an important vehicle for sharing the range of creators on the platform.”
“On OFTV we have guidelines creators must follow; all content we manually upload to OFTV is reviewed by our team and everything is checked for safe-for-work standards.”
“About 80% of our workforce is dedicated to content moderation and support — that's a number that's continuing to grow as we grow as a business.”
“We have about 1,400 people globally and we're very happy being a privately held business — we're going to continue growing globally and supporting creators.”
“We have a very simple business model in favor of the content creator: creators earn 80 percent of everything they make on the platform, and to date we've paid out over $10 billion to creators.”
“We invest in human moderators and do use some technologies to help prioritize content, but all content on OnlyFans itself is reviewed by a human — there's nothing happening on that platform that we're not seeing.”
“We're a creator-first business and we are not looking to have any sort of AI characters on the platform — it's only about human-led content.”
“We don't monetize people's data, we don't sell third-party ads; the revenue that we make is related to subscriptions and payments to creators, so every business decision that we make is creator-first.”
“We actually reject up to 60 percent of people who apply to be creators on the platform every month because they're not providing the right information; that's money left on the table but that's not a risk we're willing to take as a business.”
