Highlights

  • OnlyFans is not experiencing a slowdown in subscribers despite rising prices, executives say.
  • In April, Netflix said subscriber numbers dropped by 200,000 in the first quarter.
  • Inflation also poses a key risk to the business, as people are having to balance budgets to deal with rising costs.
  • OnlyFans has a “completely different business model” to Netflix, said Lee Taylor, the firm’s chief financial officer.
  • Last year, OnlyFans faced intense backlash from its users over a decision to ban pornography, a decision the firm subsequently decided to drop the plan.
  • The company made a name for itself offering amateur adult content creators a way to make money through subscriptions.
