OnlyFans announced it would ban all sexually explicit material effective October 1, 2021, citing pressure from banking partners and financial institutions over regulatory and reputational risks.
The platform said it would continue to allow nudity under revised guidelines intended to align with those financial and legal requirements, though it did not fully detail how those rules would be defined or enforced.
The announcement prompted concern among creators who relied on OnlyFans for income, particularly those in the adult industry. OnlyFans’ subscription and tipping model had given creators direct control over monetization and became a key revenue source for many.
Launched in 2016, OnlyFans grew rapidly, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, and helped reshape online adult entertainment and creator monetization.
Analysts and creators noted the policy shift could drive migration to competing platforms that still permit explicit content, altering market dynamics in the space.
OnlyFans framed the change as a move to ensure long-term sustainability and compliance with financial partners while encouraging creators to adapt their content strategies to the new guidelines.
