FanBase is an OnlyFans alternative for adult creators who are identity verified and 18 or older. You publish in a separate, age gated Adult 18+ section, sell monthly tiers, pay per view posts and paid messages, take tips, keep 80 percent and get paid weekly to a bank account or crypto wallet.
Adult creators often face a hard choice. Mainstream membership platforms ban adult content, and payouts on other sites can stop with little notice. FanBase gives adult work its own walled-off section with clear rules, so you know exactly what is allowed and how you get paid.
How the Adult 18+ section works
The adult section is separate from the rest of FanBase by design.
- Separate catalogue. Adult pages live in their own catalogue and never appear in mainstream categories, on the homepage or in search.
- Age confirmation and opt in. Fans see the section only after they confirm they are 18 or older and turn it on in their settings.
- Verified creators only. Nobody can post in the adult section until their identity and age are verified.
- Reviewed before public. Every post is reviewed before it goes live.
This separation protects you too. Your audience is made up of adults who chose to be there.

What adult creators sell on FanBase
The toolkit is the same as for every creator on FanBase. Each post can be members only, locked to a minimum tier, or pay per view.
- Monthly tiers. Up to three tiers between $4.99 and $49.99, each with its own perks.
- Pay per view posts. Single sets or videos at one price.
- Paid messages. Messages with locked media that fans unlock.
- Tips. On your profile and on any post.
- Bundles. 3, 6 or 12 month memberships with your own discount.
- Scheduling. Plan a month of posts ahead.

Privacy for creators
- Stage name pages. Your page shows your handle and stage name. Your legal name and ID stay private.
- Encrypted ID storage. Identity documents are stored encrypted and used only for verification and legal record keeping.
- Crypto payouts. You can be paid to a crypto wallet instead of a bank account.
- Owned audience. Export your fan list and earnings whenever you want.
Consent and records
Every person who appears in adult content on FanBase must be a verified adult who has given consent.
- Co-performer ID on file. If anyone else appears in your content, you collect their ID and signed consent and keep the records on file before you post.
- Records review. FanBase reviews these records as part of post review. Our 2257 compliance statement explains how records are kept.
- Content review. Every post is reviewed before it goes public, and every upload is checked against lists of known illegal material.
What is not allowed
The adult section has firm limits. Breaking them means removal and account closure.
- Any content involving minors or anyone who looks like a minor. Zero tolerance: removed, account closed and reported to the authorities.
- Anyone who has not consented, or whose consent and ID are not on file.
- Content showing real or simulated violence, coercion or intoxication.
- Content of other people shared without their permission.
- Posting adult content anywhere outside the Adult 18+ section.
The full list is in our acceptable use policy. Every profile and post has a report button.

Joining is free. Create your account, complete identity verification with a government ID and a selfie, set up your tiers and schedule your first posts. Earnings clear 7 days after each payment and go out weekly once you have $50 cleared. You keep 80 percent.
