First Month Without Commission if We Miss the Target

Who gets paid first, what must be in writing, and what happens if the first month does not go well.

See how it works

The essentials

  • OnlyFans pays you first, into your bank account.
  • The commission must be in writing before you start.
  • With us: if we miss the agreed target in the first month, we charge no commission for that month.
  • Nobody can guarantee you income. Be wary of anyone who does.
  • The target must leave you with more than you earn today, after the commission is paid. You can work it out below.

Taking the step to an agency is scary for one very concrete reason: money. Who gets paid? What if I earn less than before? Nobody can promise you income, but you can choose terms that protect yours. Here we explain what those terms are and how we do it, including the first month.

Who gets paid first?

You do. The OnlyFans money goes to your account, not ours. An agency should never sit between the platform and your bank.

  1. Step 1OnlyFans pays youInto your bank account, as always.
  2. Step 2We send you the invoiceWith the agreed commission on what you earned.
  3. Step 3You pay the invoiceYou see every figure before you pay.

If an agency asks you to change your OnlyFans bank account to one of theirs, don't do it. It is one of the signs we explain in the guide on agency scams.

What if the first month does not go well?

Before we start, we talk with you about a target for the first month. If we have not reached it by the end of the month, we charge no commission for that month. You keep everything you earned.

We do it this way because the risk of the first month should be ours, not yours.

Careful, the rule is all or nothing. If the month reaches the target, even just barely, the full commission for that month is paid. That is why the target has to leave you with more than you earn today after paying the commission. The calculator below does this math for you.

And if the target is reached, you pay the agreed commission and you see every figure in the weekly meeting before you pay the invoice.

Your first month, in numbers

Enter your numbers and see what you would pay in each case. Nothing is saved or sent.

$0commission you pay
$1,300you keep

We miss the target: this month we charge no commission.

With 30%, to keep more than today you need a target of at least $1,429.

Illustrative example. We go over the exact terms with you before we start. The commission is calculated on what OnlyFans pays you. The plans are 30% or 50%; if you enter another figure, the calculation adjusts it.

What must be in writing?

Before you sign with any agency, check these points. If one is missing, ask.

  • The exact commission and which income it is calculated on.

  • How and when it is paid: an invoice every two weeks, after OnlyFans pays you.

  • How to leave: with us, 3 days notice and no lock in.

  • Warning sign: an agency that promises fixed income or wants to be paid directly by OnlyFans.

You can find everything else about the contract in our contract guide, and what an agency costs in OnlyFans agency commissions.

And after the first month?

From the second month, the commission agreed in your contract applies. Every week you see your numbers in the weekly meeting, so you always know what the invoice is based on.

If at any point it is not worth it for you, you end the collaboration with 3 days notice. Your income and your account stay yours.

Frequently asked questions

Does an OnlyFans agency get paid before me?

It shouldn't. OnlyFans pays you, and then you pay the agency's invoice. This is how it works with us.

What happens if they miss the target in the first month?

We charge no commission that month and you keep everything you earned. We agree the target with you before we start.

How is the first month target set?

On the first call, if we are a good fit, we look at your account and talk through the target with you.

Can they guarantee income?

No. Nobody can guarantee income on OnlyFans. What we do is take on the risk of the first month and show you your numbers every week.

How much commission do they charge?

30% or 50%, depending on the plan. The exact figure is put in writing before we start.

Can I leave if it is not worth it for me?

Yes. There is no lock in and you can end it with 3 days notice.
