Business Model

Fanship operates on a simple and creator-friendly business model, taking only 5% of the cryptocurrency payments made by fans. This low fee ensures that creators retain the majority of their earnings, empowering them to build sustainable, direct relationships with their audience without excessive platform costs.

In contrast, traditional platforms like Patreon and OnlyFans charge significantly higher fees. Patreon’s platform fee ranges from 8% to 12%, depending on the subscription tier, while OnlyFans takes a flat 20% cut of creator revenue. Additionally, creators on these platforms often face application store fees (such as the 30% commission from Apple’s App Store or Google Play), which can further reduce their earnings. In some cases, total fees can climb as high as 40% of the creator’s income.
