This photograph taken in Nantes, western France on May 21, 2025, shows the logo of British social network OnlyFans, OF. The Ukrainian-American entrepreneur acquired Fenix International, the company that owns and operates OnlyFans, in 2018. OnlyFans transformed the porn industry by offering content creators a platform to reach their audience directly and taking a 20 per cent cut of the revenues. The content creators keep the remaining 80 per cent, a compelling offer for the mostly adult entertainers seeking to monetise their work. Last year, it generated $7.2 billion from users, who pay subscriptions to the content creators as well as offer tips and payment for special requests.
