A new independent estimate suggests users in Brazil could spend roughly 546 million reais, or about US$109.7 million, on OnlyFans during its 2026 financial period. The figure, reported by Brazilian newspaper Folha on October 26, 2026, is a forecast from the analytics service OnlyGuider—not an audited total released by OnlyFans.
Where the projection comes from
According to Folha, OnlyGuider modeled spending for a period running from December 2025 to November 2026. Its approach combined disclosed financial information about the platform’s parent company, Google search-interest measures and a statistical forecasting model called TimesFM.
The research estimates a 4.3% increase compared with the preceding period and places Brazil tenth among national markets by estimated spending. That ranking is a property of the model and should not be presented as verified internal OnlyFans transaction data.
Why city and country totals require caution
The same report attributes estimated volumes of approximately US$11.9 million to São Paulo and US$4.63 million to Rio de Janeiro. OnlyFans does not release the country-level breakdown needed to check those estimates against actual purchases.
A model can be informative about possible market size, but it cannot tell readers exactly how many individuals subscribe, which products they purchase, or whether typical creators earn more. A handful of high-spending fans or high-earning performers can distort assumptions drawn from broad totals.
What the numbers mean for the creator economy
Subscription platforms are increasingly discussed alongside other businesses built on direct payments from audiences. Creator revenue, platform fees, payment processing and customer spending are different measurements, and they should not be treated as interchangeable.
For creators considering this kind of business, the reported projection is best understood as a research estimate. It is not a guarantee of income, evidence of a particular creator’s performance or a substitute for published company accounts.
