How to set each of those
PPV messages: $5–$25
Short clips at the lower end, longer or themed content higher. The price matters less than who receives it: regulars absorb higher prices, new subscribers do not. The PPV calculator shows what your unlock rate needs to be at any price.
Tips: give fans an easy yes
A tip menu works when the smallest item is impulse-sized ($5–10) and the largest is genuinely premium. Fans read a menu top to bottom; the spread tells them what kind of page this is.
Customs: from $25, up fast
Custom content is priced on effort and exclusivity, not length. A floor of $25–75 keeps requests serious, and named add-ons beat haggling. Never price customs below your premium tier — it undercuts the thing your best fans already pay for.
So what is the best price to charge?
There is no single best price, and the reason is worth saying plainly: your subscription price decides who walks in, not what you earn. Price near the middle of the $5–$15 band and the door stays open to the most people, which matters because the month is then made on PPV and tips inside the page. Price high and you filter down to fewer, more committed subscribers, which only pays if you have the content depth and the inbox time to keep them.
That is why a price list is a starting point rather than an answer. Take the row for your niche, run a month, and look at two numbers before you change anything: how many people who saw the page subscribed, and what share of your subscribers bought anything beyond the fee. A low first number is a price or a preview problem. A healthy first number with a low second one means the price is fine and the inbox is where the work is. Moving the price without knowing which of those you have is the most common way to lose a month.
Keep in mind that you keep 80% of every figure here. A $9.99 page and a $14.99 page are $7.99 and $11.99 to you, and the gap between them is smaller than the gap most creators imagine when they agonise over the number.
Prices only set the ceiling
Whatever this table says, the month is made in the inbox: tips and PPV happen inside conversations. That is why two pages with the same price list earn completely different amounts. If replying at volume is the bottleneck, Velvetly drafts fan replies in your own voice on OnlyFans and Fansly, and you approve every send.
