What is PPV Content on OnlyFans?
PPV stands for "Pay Per View." It's content that you send to subscribers as a message, and they have to pay extra to unlock and see it. Even though they already pay a monthly subscription, PPV is additional content they pay for separately.
Here's how it works:
- You Create Special Content: You make content that's more exclusive or special than your regular posts
- You Send It as a Message: You send it to subscribers as a message with a price on it
- They Pay to Unlock: Subscribers see a preview and can pay to unlock the full content
- You Get Paid: When they unlock it, you get the money (OnlyFans takes 20%, you get 80%)
PPV is different from your regular subscription content. Regular content is what subscribers see on your feed for their monthly fee. PPV is extra, special content they pay more for.
At TP MGMT, we help creators learn how to sell PPV content on OnlyFans effectively. PPV can significantly increase your income when done right.
Why PPV Content Matters for Your Income
PPV content is important because it can add a lot of extra money to your monthly income:
- Extra Revenue: PPV adds money on top of your subscription income
- Higher Value Content: You can charge more for special content
- Flexible Income: You can send PPV whenever you want, not just on a schedule
- Rewards Big Spenders: Subscribers who buy PPV are your best customers
- Increases Total Revenue: Can double or triple your monthly income
Many creators make as much or more from PPV as they do from subscriptions. It's a huge part of making good money on OnlyFans.
For example: If you have 100 subscribers paying $10/month, that's $1,000 per month. But if you also sell PPV and make an extra $500-1,000 per month from it, your total income doubles. That's why learning how to sell PPV content on OnlyFans is so important.
What Types of Content Work Best for PPV
Not all content works well as PPV. Here's what subscribers actually want to buy:
1. More Explicit Content
Content that's more explicit than your regular posts:
- Full nude content (if your regular posts are more covered)
- More explicit photos or videos
- Content that goes further than your subscription content
- Hardcore content (if that's your niche)
Subscribers pay extra for content that's more explicit than what they get with their subscription.
2. Longer or Higher Quality Videos
Videos that are longer or higher quality than your regular posts:
- Longer videos (5-10+ minutes instead of short clips)
- Higher production quality videos
- Videos with better lighting or editing
- Professional-looking content
Subscribers will pay for videos that feel more valuable and special than your regular content.
3. Custom or Requested Content
Content made specifically for subscribers:
- Custom photos or videos based on subscriber requests
- Name written on body (their name)
- Specific outfits or scenarios they ask for
- Personalized content just for them
Custom content is valuable because it's made specifically for that subscriber. They'll pay more for something personal.
4. Exclusive or Limited Content
Content that's exclusive or only available for a limited time:
- Content that won't be posted to your feed
- Limited-time offers
- Exclusive photo sets or videos
- Content that's only available through PPV
When subscribers know content is exclusive, they're more likely to buy it.
5. Themed or Special Content
Content with specific themes or special occasions:
- Holiday-themed content
- Cosplay or costume content
- Special event content
- Themed photo sets or videos
Themed content feels special and worth paying extra for.
6. Behind-the-Scenes or Personal Content
Content that feels more personal or exclusive:
- Behind-the-scenes of content creation
- Personal life updates or stories
- More intimate or personal content
- Content that shows more of your personality
Personal content helps subscribers feel more connected, which makes them want to buy.
How to Price Your PPV Content
Pricing PPV correctly is important. Price it too high and nobody buys. Price it too low and you're leaving money on the table. Here's how to price it right:
General Pricing Guidelines
Here are general price ranges that work:
- Photos (1-5 photos): $5-15
- Photo Sets (6-10+ photos): $15-30
- Short Videos (1-3 minutes): $10-25
- Medium Videos (3-5 minutes): $20-40
- Long Videos (5-10+ minutes): $30-60+
- Custom Content: $25-100+ (depends on what they want)
These are just guidelines. Your prices should match your subscription price and your niche. If your subscription is $5, don't charge $50 for PPV. If your subscription is $50, you can charge more for PPV.
Factors That Affect Pricing
Several things affect how much you should charge:
- Your Subscription Price: PPV should be priced relative to your subscription. If you charge $10/month, $5-15 PPV makes sense. If you charge $50/month, $20-50 PPV makes sense.
- Content Quality: Higher quality content can be priced higher
- Content Exclusivity: More exclusive content can be priced higher
- Your Niche: Some niches can charge more than others
- Subscriber Spending Habits: If your subscribers tip a lot, they might buy higher-priced PPV
Start with lower prices and see what sells. You can always raise prices later if content sells well.
Testing Different Prices
Don't be afraid to test different prices:
- Start Lower: Start with lower prices to see what sells
- Test Higher: Try raising prices on similar content to see if it still sells
- See What Works: Track which prices get the most sales
- Adjust Over Time: Your prices can change as you learn what works
There's no perfect price that works for everyone. Test and see what works for your subscribers.
Creating PPV Bundles
Bundles can help you sell more:
- Bundle Multiple Items: Offer 3 videos for $40 instead of $15 each
- Create Value: Bundles feel like a better deal
- Increase Sales: Subscribers might buy a bundle when they wouldn't buy individual items
- Clear Out Old Content: Bundle older PPV content at a discount
Bundles are a great way to sell more PPV and make subscribers feel like they're getting a deal.
When and How to Send PPV Content
When you send PPV matters almost as much as what you send. Here's how to do it right:
Best Times to Send PPV
Timing can affect how many people buy:
- After Popular Posts: When a regular post gets lots of likes, that's a good time to send PPV
- Evenings and Weekends: People have more time and money to spend
- After Subscribers Message You: If they're already engaging, they're more likely to buy
- When You Post New Content: Send PPV related to your new post
- Special Occasions: Holidays, your birthday, milestones—these are good times
Don't send PPV constantly. Once or twice per week is usually enough. Too much and subscribers get annoyed.
How to Send PPV Messages
Here's how to send PPV effectively:
- Create Your Content: Make the photo or video you want to sell
- Go to Messages: Open your OnlyFans messages
- Select Subscribers: Choose who to send it to (all subscribers, new subscribers, or specific people)
- Upload Content: Upload your photo or video
- Set the Price: Enter the price you want to charge
- Write a Caption: Write something that makes them want to buy
- Send It: Send the message
OnlyFans makes it easy to send PPV. Just follow these steps and you're good to go.
Writing Good PPV Captions
Your caption matters. Here's what works:
- Be Descriptive: Tell them what they're getting ("5-minute video of me...")
- Create Urgency: "Limited time" or "Only available today"
- Show Value: Explain why this content is special
- Be Exciting: Use words that make them curious
- Keep It Short: Don't write a novel—just enough to interest them
Example of a good PPV caption: "Hey! I just filmed this exclusive 8-minute video just for you. It's something I've never posted before and won't post to my feed. Unlock it to see! 💕"
Example of a bad PPV caption: "Buy this." (Too short, no description, not exciting)
Who to Send PPV To
You can send PPV to different groups:
- All Subscribers: Send to everyone (most common)
- New Subscribers: Send welcome PPV to new subscribers
- Long-Term Subscribers: Send special PPV to subscribers who've been around a while
- Top Tippers: Send exclusive PPV to subscribers who tip a lot
- Specific People: Send custom PPV to individual subscribers
Mix it up. Sometimes send to everyone, sometimes send special content to specific groups. This makes subscribers feel special.
