My Honest Take
OnlyFans pricing varies wildly, but the key is understanding value, not just cost. A $5 subscription with inconsistent, low-quality content is worse value than a $20 subscription with daily, high-quality posts and good engagement.
Start with free accounts or trials to test creators. Evaluate content-to-price ratio carefully. Build a subscription list that fits your budget and actually delivers what you want. And remember: more expensive doesn't automatically mean better—find creators who consistently deliver quality at a price that works for you.
Conclusion
OnlyFans pricing ranges from free to $50+, with significant variation in value. Understand what's included in subscriptions, factor in potential PPV costs, and evaluate actual content-to-price ratio. Start with trials, research before subscribing, and build a collection that fits your budget and preferences.
