People have such short memories.... was it a year or so ago that MasterCard said it would no longer process OF account payments because the grand majority of accounts were "pornography without appropriate safeguards to ensure that minors do not access adult content?"I remember that issue with MC and OF... that is when Fansly started gaining creators. One of my model friends was very concerned when I told her about Fansly and she started going over there. OF lost a bunch of creators (thus income) when Fansly took off. (personally Fansly has higher quality videos on their live stream, and other features) and now she and a bunch of her model friends post on both.
All of the OF "content creators" screamed like the Supreme Court just took away women's rights. (That happened a year later.)
A veteran (and one of my favorites) porn star, Cherie DeVille, wrote an op-ed piece on how she learned the "real" porn trade and now how she has developed multi-level marketing that if one piece falls off, it's not the end of the world. Her message to all of the OF "content creators" was to put in the work. She basically gave away her business plan, free to anyone who wants to put in the hard work she did.
She's a very smart lady who plays a not-so-smart porn star very well....
MasterCard walked their position back when shareholders did the math on how much MC was making off the "content creators". So their income is safe... for now.
I know a lot of former providers who make just as much or more on OF... But it's just a corporate decision away from going "poof"! Originally Posted by Anonymous01
