Every fee, one page.
What creators on each channel actually take home — and the comparison to OnlyFans and Fansly laid out the same way, line-item by line-item. No bundled asterisks.
Five channels a creator business runs on: subscriptions, pay-per-view content, tips, livestream tickets, and premium messages (DMs). The platform fee and the payment-processing posture differ by channel; this is the breakdown.
TL;DR
The shape of the fee, before the line items.
Three things to keep in your head while you read the per-channel breakdown below.
Per-channel breakdown
Five channels, three columns each.
For each of the five revenue channels a creator business runs on, three columns: the Vantly platform fee, the payment-processing posture on top of it, and what the category default looks like on a flat-20% competitor.
- 01Channel 01SubscriptionsRecurring monthly revenue from subscribers on your tiered membership pricing. The quiet engine of a creator business.
Vantly platform fee
10–20% tiered
Tier-2 creators land around 12%. The tier ladder rewards your real best month, not a quota.
Payment processing on top
Processor-aware routing
Standard card-network processing is built into the platform, not billed to you separately. We route through an adult-friendly processor stack with redundancy so a single processor deplatforming does not freeze your sales.
Category default
20% flat, single tier
- 02Channel 02Pay-per-view contentSingle-piece PPV unlocks — drops, bundles, individual paywalled pieces. Layered on top of your subscription funnel.
Vantly platform fee
5–15% tiered
PPV fees are lower than subs on Vantly because the work is bought, not subscribed to — you keep more when a fan converts.
Payment processing on top
Processor-aware routing
One net figure per transaction in your dashboard. Chargebacks stay platform-shared, so a disputed PPV unlock is not a creator line-item deduction.
Category default
20% flat, top-of-funnel
- 03Channel 03TipsOne-off support from fans — on a post, a livestream, a DM, or a creator profile. The smallest-ticket revenue, the loudest signal.
Vantly platform fee
5% flat
Tips have the lowest fee on the platform because they are the most discretionary. We do not want the platform cut to feel punitive on a $5 gesture.
Payment processing on top
Standard card-network processing
You see one net figure per tip in your creator ledger. There is no "platform fee + processing fee + payout fee" stack — the line items collapse to a single take-home number.
Category default
20% flat + 20% processing
- 04Channel 04Livestream ticketsTicketed entry to a paid livestream — recurring shows, single events, replays on the same creation. Tipping on top of the ticket is separate and earns the tips rate.
Vantly platform fee
5–15% tiered
Ticket fees are tiered like PPV because they sit in the same "bought, not subscribed to" lane. Tips inside the stream are billed at the tips rate, separately.
Payment processing on top
Processor-aware routing
A paid livestream room does not double-dip the platform fee on top of in-stream tips. The platform fee is on the ticket; tips inside the stream earn the tips rate.
Category default
20% flat + 20–30% tips surcharge
- 05Channel 05Premium messages (DMs)Locked one-to-one conversations, pay-to-unlock media inside a thread, and tip prompts before the first reply. One-to-one revenue for creators whose work is the conversation.
Vantly platform fee
5% flat (locked DMs) / tips rate (tip prompts)
Locked DM unlock fees are low because the work does not benefit from platform discovery — it is built on a relationship you already have.
Payment processing on top
Standard card-network processing
A DM unlock and a DM tip promo are billed as separate line items in your ledger, so the audit trail reads cleanly at year-end. Both are platform-shared on chargebacks.
Category default
20% flat + 20% processing

Pricing FAQ
The three questions that come up after the breakdown.
Theas-the-platform-fee questions a creator asks after reading the per-channel rows above. The answers below are written to clarify, not to publish-statement around.
Is there a minimum weekly volume to earn at the lowest tier?
No. The fee ladder is tiered by your own monthly revenue, not by a platform-defined quota you have to hit. Tier points are set so the lowest tier kicks in early — before the volume a creator would typically need to feel the difference in their take-home. The exact tier ladder is published in your creator dashboard, not buried in fine print.
Do fees change by region?
The platform fee does not change by region — the tier ladder applies uniformly across the regions we serve. What can vary by region is the payment-processing line item, where local rails (ACH, SEPA, local card schemes) sit on top of standard card-network routing. You see one net figure per transaction in your dashboard regardless of where the buyer is.
Is the platform fee inclusive of payment processing?
No. The platform fee is paid to Vantly on top of payment processing — processing is the standard card-network rail fee that any platform, including Vantly, has to absorb. The point is that the processing line does not get marked up and the platform fee does not get hidden. Each is a single number on its own line, not a bundled figure with asterisks.
