Measured rates for Fanvue and OnlyFans creators: what price pay-per-view content converts at, when to send it, where it lands best, and where creator earnings come from. Free to quote with attribution to VueMate.
$30–49 is the highest-performing band, unlocked 50% of the time and returning $18.51 per offer.
Unlock rate and revenue per offer peak in the same band, which contradicts the common advice to price low for volume. An offer under $10 is unlocked 26.4% of the time and returns $2.18 — cheaper content is unlocked less often, not more.
Basis: 2,129 priced offers sent inside live conversations
No. Under $10 unlocks at 26.4%; $30–49 unlocks at 50%.
The relationship is an inverted U, not a slope. Unlock rate rises with price up to $49, then collapses to 5.9% above $50. Pricing low costs you both the unlock and the revenue.
Basis: 2,129 priced offers
Above $50, unlock rate falls to 5.9% and revenue per offer drops to $3.34.
A $50+ offer earns less per send than a $20–29 offer, despite listing at an average of $159. If you sell above $50 it should be to a fan who has already bought repeatedly, not as a standing price.
Basis: 51 offers above $50
Fan-local evening, 18:00–23:00, unlocks at 34.8% — about a third better than morning's 25.6%.
The ordering is evening, then night at 28.7%, then afternoon at 26.7%, then morning at 25.6%. Time zone matters: this is the fan's local hour, not the creator's.
Basis: 2,129 offers by fan-local hour
No. Inside a conversation PPV unlocks at 27%. The same offer mass-messaged to subscribers unlocks at 3.7%.
That is roughly seven times the conversion for the same content. Mass messages to non-subscribing followers unlock at 0.6%. Placement changes the product: an offer in a reply is a response, an offer in a broadcast is an advert.
PPV sold inside conversations is 68% of creator earnings.
Tips are 11%, PPV on feed posts 9%, subscription renewals 7%, and new subscriptions 5%. Subscription price is a small share of the total — the conversation is where the money is.
No. New subscriptions and renewals together are 12% of creator earnings.
Discounting a subscription to grow the list only pays if those subscribers then buy in chat, which is where the other 88% is earned.
Between 24.6% and 50% of in-conversation offers are unlocked, depending on price.
Unlock rate by band: under $10 26.4%, $10–19 24.6%, $20–29 34.9%, $30–49 50.0%, $50+ 5.9%. An offer counts as unlocked when the fan buys within seven days.
An offer counts as unlocked when the fan buys it within seven days of it being sent. Time of day is the fan's local hour. Revenue per offer is gross, divided by every offer sent whether unlocked or not. Rates only - no individual creator, fan or account is identifiable.
