Fansly review
Affiliate disclosure: some links to the platforms on OFGirls.now may earn us a commission if you sign up or pay. It never costs you more, and no platform pays to be listed or to change what we write. How we rate
Good for
- Finding new creators on the platform itself, and paying for exactly the tier of content you want.
Skip it if
- You expect one subscription to unlock a whole profile: higher tiers cost more and show more.
Fansly looks like OnlyFans with two important differences for fans. First, discovery: it has a search bar, hashtag search with filters and a For You feed of creators you don't follow yet, which OnlyFans has never offered. Second, tiers: a creator can sell several subscription levels on one profile, from $5 up to $499.99 a month, with higher tiers unlocking more. Locked posts, paid messages and tips sit on top.
Billing is reported by third-party guides to show "Select Media LLC", the Maryland company that runs Fansly, rather than the brand. Fans in 12 US states are age-checked through Ondato, which Fansly says keeps neither your selfie nor your ID. We found no regulator action or confirmed breach.
The terms, as quoted by reviewers, treat purchases as final and wallet funds as normally non-refundable, and a chargeback can get you suspended. Our OnlyFans vs Fansly vs Fanvue comparison puts it next to the other two.
The facts
- What fans pay
- Creators set subscription tiers from $5 to $499.99 a month (Fansly Help Center, checked Nov 2026), and a third-party guide reports up to 10 tiers per creator, locked posts and messages from $1 to $500, and tips from $0.10 to $500. Higher tiers unlock more of the same profile. You can prepay a wallet, but third-party reviews of the terms say wallet funds are normally non-refundable and purchases are final, with refunds at Fansly's discretion.[1][2][3]
- Discovery & who's on it
- Unlike OnlyFans, Fansly has internal discovery: a search bar, hashtag search with filters, profile tags, and a For You Page that recommends posts from creators you don't follow yet. Fansly publishes no user or creator counts that we could find.[4][5][6]
- Creator & age checks
- Creators verify identity, age and consent through the third-party provider Ondato before they can apply. Fans signing in from Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kansas, Louisiana, North Carolina, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee and Texas are prompted to verify their age the same way; Fansly also runs a global age-verification step where Ondato may ask for an ID and a selfie match.[7][8][9]
- Billing & privacy
- Fansly says Ondato does not store your selfie or ID and that Fansly only receives a yes/no age result. Its help centre doesn't state a billing descriptor that we could find; third-party guides report charges as "Select Media LLC" or a payment processor such as CCBill rather than the word Fansly.[8][10][11]
- Scams & complaints
- We found no regulator action and no confirmed data breach involving Fansly as of Nov 2026. Third-party reviews of its terms say cancelling stops renewal without refunding the current period, billing errors must be reported in writing within 30 days, and a chargeback can get your account suspended. Fansly's help centre does not say whether creators may use paid chatters; assume, as on every platform here, that a busy account may not be answered by the creator.[12][3]
