The owner of OnlyFans - The online platform used by sex workers, musicians, celebrities and More - has been paid $338m (£268. 5m) in dividends.

That came as The Number of creators on OnlyFans jumped by 47% to almost 3. 2 million, while The Number of users rose by 27% to close to 239 million.

The Company also said that for The First Time More Than half of its revenues were from non-subscription services such as tips and on-demand content by creators.

The Firm said it takes a fifth of The payments made on The Site , with around 80% going to creators.

" OnlyFans recorded sustained growth and profitability, " Fenix said in The filing.

" This reflects both The Platform growth, in terms of number of content creators and fans, as well as growth in existing content creators earnings, " it added.

OnlyFans, and other online streaming sites, saw traffic boom during The coronavirus lockdowns as people were stuck in their homes.
