How it works

FANELIX.COM — HOW IT WORKS
Built for creators. Simple for fans.

At a glance

Create an account → verify → set prices
Upload content → post or schedule → promote
Earn from subscriptions, PPV, and tips → withdraw your balance

For Creators

1) Create & verify

Sign up with your email and secure password.
Complete your profile (display name, bio, links, avatar, banner).
Set your country & currency.
Verify identity/age (where required) to unlock payouts and sensitive features.
Add payout details (bank, wallet, or available methods in your region).

You’ll need: a valid ID, a payout method, and to be 18+.

2) Set your prices

Subscriptions — choose a monthly price (you can run discounts & bundles).
PPV (Pay-Per-View) — set prices per post, gallery, or video.
Tips — allow fans to tip you any time (you can suggest amounts).
Bundles & promos — 3/6/12-month deals, limited-time coupons, follower-only offers.

Tip: Start with a competitive monthly price, then test discounts for new followers.

3) Upload & post

Supported media: photos, videos, audio, long captions, attachments.
Drafts & scheduling: queue content to publish later (best for consistency).
Galleries & clips: group related media; tease a preview, lock the rest behind PPV or subs.
Watermarks (if enabled): auto-apply to protect your content.
DMs: send paid or free messages to segments (all fans, new subs, high-tippers, etc.).

Workflow:
Create → Add media → Choose Public / Subscribers / PPV → (Optional) Schedule → Publish

4) Grow your audience

Shareable links: post your Fanelix link on socials/bio.
Teasers: public previews attract new subs.
Bundles & coupons: time-bound promos create urgency.
Consistency: a weekly posting cadence keeps churn low.
DM upsells: send a paid PPV bundle to new subscribers in week one.

5) Get paid

Earnings sources: Subscriptions • PPV • Tips • Promotions.
Dashboard: real-time balance, pending payouts, taxes/fees breakdown.
Payouts: request withdrawals to your selected method (availability varies by region).
Receipts & exports: download statements for accounting and tax purposes.

Heads-up: Some payment methods may require additional verification and have minimum withdrawal amounts or processing times.

6) Safety & compliance

Age & identity checks where required by law or partners.
Content rules to protect the community (see Terms of Service).
Copyright/DMCA takedowns supported.
Security: 2FA recommended, session alerts, device checks.
Privacy: granular settings for what’s public vs. subscriber-only.

For Fans

1) Follow & subscribe

2) Pay your way

Monetization Options (Creators)

Subscriptions — recurring monthly access to your feed & stories.

Tips — instant support from fans.
