OnlyFans’ latest accounts separate creator payments from company earnings

Fenix’s September 2026 filing covers the year ended November 2025. Its transaction totals describe a platform, not a typical creator’s income.

Fenix International filed its latest group accounts at Companies House on September 20, 2026, covering the year ended November 30, 2025. These are different time markers: the filing describes a completed trading period, rather than measuring performance during September 2026 or what creators are earning this month. [1]

Fenix’s strategic report identifies OnlyFans as its platform and records roughly $7.8 billion in gross payments and $6.2 billion paid to creators. Company revenue was approximately $1.55 billion. Fenix describes an 80/20 division between creators and the platform. Gross payments should therefore not be presented as money the company kept: the platform’s scale and its own revenue are different measures. [2]

The report also records approximately 5.06 million creator accounts and 437.13 million fan accounts. Its definition counts accounts created that have not been deleted or deactivated. Those totals are not a count of active earners or necessarily unique people. Dividing aggregate creator payments by registered accounts would not establish a typical creator’s pay; the report’s totals do not show the distribution of earnings. [2]

The registry makes the source boundary explicit: Companies House says it does not check the accuracy of filed information. The filing is the company’s formal account of the period, available for readers to inspect. It is valuable evidence, but its presence on a government website should not be described as independent government verification of every claim. [1]

There is also a separate compliance history. In March 2025, Ofcom fined Fenix £1.05 million for inaccurate responses to information requests about age assurance. The regulator said the company had reported a facial-estimation challenge age of 23 when the setting was actually 20. This was an information-accuracy case under rules predating the Online Safety Act; it should not be relabeled as a September 2026 finding about the platform’s current checks. [3]

Ofcom said the penalty included a 30-percent settlement reduction and emphasized the need for companies to verify information before supplying it. That finding gives the business figures a useful companion question: how reliably can a platform document its operations? Revenue, creator-payment totals and a regulator’s information findings describe different dimensions of the company. None supplies a shortcut to measuring an individual worker’s income or experience.
