The key question is whether the cut is on gross (before the OnlyFans fee) or net (after it). OnlyFans already keeps 20 percent of gross.
Gross vs net — why it matters
Example: you bill 10,000 in a month. OnlyFans takes 20 percent (2,000), leaving 8,000. A 30 percent agency cut on that net is 2,400, so you keep 5,600.
Always confirm in writing whether a quoted percentage applies to gross or net — the difference is large.
What's fair and what's a warning sign
Lower cuts (roughly 20 to 30 percent) usually mean basic account management. Higher full-service cuts exist but should come with clear, documented work.
Very high cuts (contracts of 50 to 70 percent have been reported) leave creators with little after the OnlyFans fee. Treat extreme splits and vague pricing as a reason to slow down and review.
