How to choose an OnlyFans agency: a 16-point check
Compare agencies on what they put in writing, not on what they promise on a call. Check five things in order: who controls your login and payouts, how you leave, how the commission is calculated, what the service actually includes, and which company you'd sign with. Our 16 criteria turn that into a checklist you can run on any agency.
Start with control, not growth
Every agency pitch is about growth. The terms that decide how your next year goes are about control. Before anything else, find out who will hold your password, email and two-factor authentication (login criterion), and whether the platform pays into your own bank account (direct payouts). On this site, 8 of 27 agencies put the first in writing and 7 the second.
If an agency needs your login to work, ask how access is shared, logged and removed. If the money flows through the agency first, ask why.
Then check how you leave
Leaving is where contracts get expensive. Look for four things: the minimum term and notice period (term and notice), any exit fee or buyout (exit penalty), any commission on what you earn after you go (post-exit commission), and what happens to access and files on the day you leave (exit handover).
Our guide on how to leave an agency covers the steps.
Make the money arithmetic explicit
A commission figure means little without its base. 50% of net (after the platform's 20%) and 40% of gross leave you with the same amount; 50% of gross leaves you with much less. Ask for the number and the base in writing, then run it through the commission calculator. Check too that nothing is charged upfront (nothing upfront) and what reports you get and how often (reporting).
Ask what the service actually is
“Full management” covers very different things. Ask who chats with your fans, whether people or software, within which limits, and whether you can read the conversations (chat policy). Ask whether leak monitoring and takedown requests are included (content protection). A good sign: the agency tells you when it is not a fit (who shouldn't sign).
Finally, verify the company
You should know the legal name, where it is registered and an address or registration number before you sign (identifiable company). Check how long it has existed using a public record, not the “founded in” line on its website (age on record). Our guide on verifying an agency shows how.
Use the checklist
The contract checker runs the same 16 points on any agency's terms, in your browser. The Find your agency test matches your priorities against what the agencies on this site publish.
Questions
What is the most important thing to check?
Who controls the account: login, email, 2FA and where payouts land. Everything else is easier to fix later than losing control of the account.
Should I trust agency rankings?
Check who runs them. This site is run by Starvi Digital LLC, which runs LuxOnly, one of the agencies listed. Every score links to the agency's own page and the date we read it, so you can check it yourself.
Do agencies publish their terms?
Some do. On this site, 11 of 27 agencies publish their commission with its base.
This site is operated by Starvi Digital LLC, owner of LuxOnly, which appears in this comparison.
