How Much Do Fanvue Agencies Take?
Agency percentages vary a lot, and the headline number rarely tells the full story. Here is what different types of agencies take and what you get for it.
Quick answer
Most Fanvue agencies take between 20% and 50% of a creator's earnings. Chatting-only agencies usually take 15–25%, while full management agencies that also handle marketing and content usually take 30–50% or more. Always check whether the percentage is on gross or net revenue. Chatting OS, a chatting agency, takes 20% of net revenue.
Key takeaways
- Chatting-only: usually 15–25%.
- Full management: usually 30–50%+.
- Net (after Fanvue's fee) is better for you than gross.
- Compare what's included, not just the number.
Typical Fanvue agency percentages

| Marketing agency | 20–40% | Traffic and promotion |
| Full management | 30–50%+ | Chatting, marketing, content strategy, account management |

What's different on Fanvue
Fanvue is a newer creator platform that has grown quickly. It offers subscriptions, pay-to-view messages and tips like OnlyFans, has its own built-in tools for creators, and allows AI-generated creators under its own rules.
More agencies are adding Fanvue to their offering, including for AI creators. Your chat team needs to know Fanvue's rules as well as the selling basics.
Check that your CRM and reporting support Fanvue before you sign Fanvue creators.
| Feature | Why it matters on Fanvue |
|---|---|
| Growing audience | Fanvue is smaller than OnlyFans but growing, so there is less competition for fans' attention in some niches. |
| Pay-to-view messages | Locked messages work much like OnlyFans PPV, so conversation-led selling drives revenue here too. |
| Built-in creator tools | Fanvue has its own tools for messaging and insights. Check what's currently available in your dashboard. |
| AI creators allowed | Fanvue allows AI-generated creators under its policy, including disclosure rules. Check the current policy before launching one. |

Gross vs. net: why it matters
Fanvue takes a platform fee from everything. "Gross" is what fans pay; "net" is what you receive after that cut.
| On gross | On net | |
|---|---|---|
| Fans pay | $10,000 | $10,000 |
| You receive (net) | $8,000 | $8,000 |
| Agency takes 30% | $3,000 | $2,400 |
| You keep | $5,000 | $5,600 |
Same percentage, $600 a month difference.
