Is an agency actually worth it for you?

Most calculators show what you'd keep. This one shows the number that matters more: how much an agency has to grow your account before you come out ahead.

Built by Helge, founder of FantasyRise, from the arithmetic run on every application.

The industry range runs from about 20% to 60%, depending on how much the agency takes on.

Be honest here. If an agency promises you a specific number, that itself is a warning sign.

Your break-even point

At 40% commission, an agency has to grow your account by at least 67% just for you to end up where you started.

This is arithmetic, not advice. It leaves out the things that don't show up in a number: hours of your week back, someone else handling the inbox at 3am, and whether you want to run a business alone. It also works in pre-tax dollars: agency commission is a deductible business expense, so the real cost after tax is lower than the percentage here, and the tax page works that out.

It also can't tell you whether a particular agency will deliver the growth you plugged in. Nobody can promise that, and anyone who does is telling you something useful about themselves.

Second question: is that percentage on gross or on net?

OnlyFans keeps 20% of everything before you see it. So an agency charging 35% of gross and an agency charging 35% of net are quoting the same number for two different deals. Of the agencies on our comparison page, we are the only one that publishes which basis it uses and says the same thing everywhere. OnModelStudios says net in its calculator and "account revenue" in its FAQ, on the same page.

Move the sliders and the difference is the last row.
