You'll no doubt have seen the website in the news recently due to its announcement that it was banning adult content, and then a rapid backtrack (investor tension can lead to a quick U-turn). 

But, who are the actual competitors to OnlyFans... are they in a league of their own? Or are any others platforms starting to gain traction? 

And, what does the history look like for the adult content subscription sector as a whole?

  • Payments are secure, but still show on your bank statement as a variation of ‘OnlyFans’ or ‘OF’
