What It Really Takes to Be in the Top 1% on OnlyFans

What It Really Takes to Be in the Top 1% on OnlyFans

I’ve previously written about this subject but it’s been awhile so I thought it might be a good time to update the numbers.

You’ve probably seen it on social media: creators proudly proclaiming they’re in the top 1% on OnlyFans. But what does that actually mean in terms of earnings? How much do you have to make to be among the elite?

Curious to find out, I contacted friends in the industry and collected real data from multiple OnlyFans creators who were kind enough to let me peek into their numbers. I gathered their earnings and corresponding account rankings.

Let’s dig into the results.

 

The Numbers Behind the Ranks

Here’s a breakdown of earnings by account rank, based on March 2025 data: (Amounts shown are per month)

0.02% $210,608
0.03% $176,923
0.09% $103,038
0.10% $93,401
0.11% $87,984
0.31% $46,703
0.66% $27,536
0.92% $20,555
1% $18,684
1.50% $12,989
1.90% $10,362
2.50% $7,910
4% $4,987
7.80% $1,648
10% $1,201
15% $547
21% $292
45% $81

As you can see, the earnings drop off fast after that top 1% range.

It’s worth mentioning a few things:

  • This data is from March 2025. OnlyFans rankings and earnings can vary from month to month. My last report was from October 2021; click here to read that and to compare how the numbers have changed.
  • The platform is dynamic. What puts you in the top 5% today may not be enough next month.

At the end of the day, these figures are a helpful guide, not gospel. Use them to understand the landscape, but don’t stress if your numbers fluctuate. It happens to everyone.

Special thanks to Tamera (TTwerker on Onlyfans) and her friend Marilyn Who for providing additional data.
