Over the past decade, the entire porn industry has been under attack by tube sites and piracy. And that trickled down to the performers, who struggled to make ends meet.
The fantastic news is that times are a-changin'. There is a new revolution afoot, with models and budding producers directly marketing their content to fans. Independent producers can now makes tens of thousands of dollars per month! Yes, real money.
Raw Fuck Club, powered by PPVNetworks technology, has taken the next giant leap in fan-based content by building the first network of independently produced content. Fans can now get what they want, the ability to browse and follow as much content as they want.. And independent producers can make much more money. Its a win-win!
✝ Note: Model/Producers produce content and may additionally have traffic and/or social media presence. Affiliates do not produce content but have traffic and/or social media presence.
✝ Channels owners receive an equivalent of 50% affiliate referral share of membership signups, less processing fees. Additionally, channel owners receive their share of 30% of total membership revenues as calculated by the ratio of channel's video minutes viewed to total minutes viewed on site.
RFC has again innovated to improve the monetization of content for the Independent Producer and Model community! Our updated payment system automatically equalizes and distributes streaming and download revenues to models. For example, if a video is uploaded featuring 3 models, the revenues will automatically be divvied up and paid to models. In situations where the uploader is providing additional value, he is additionally compensated.
Note: JFF recently added a similar feature, but theirs only applies to downloads, which is a small portion of revenues.
Additionally, rewards are built into the system. Videos with more performers receive additional revenue share, up to 50%. We boost these payouts in an effort to "equalize" expected earnings for all models, regardless of cast size..
Models who appear in videos on RFC and wish to be fairly compensated can register as an Independent Producer and provide basic information and payment details, etc. Managing a channel on RFC is not required to register and receive compensation, although it is encouraged to synergistics benefit the entire community. Populating your channel with information like your Twitter, avatar, photos, stats, etc. can also greatly improve your exposure.

Model/Producers and Affiliates are paid every two weeks. Payment periods are the 1st thru 15th and 16th thru end of month. Payments are processed up to 5 business days after the close of each payment period, so expect to receive payment on or before the 5th and 20th of each month.
Our supported payment methods are direct deposit (ACH) for US accounts and PayPal for non-US accounts. If you are a non-US producer and have access to an ACH account owned by a non-US entity, ie. easily accessible in Canada or internationally using services like TransferWise, you can permitted to enter this information. We do not support CashApp, Venmo, Paxum or any other money exchange platforms other than PayPal at this time.
All revenues are earned in and payments made in US dollars ($). Depending on the currency of your account, you may see your payments converted to your native currency.
All models on RFC get model pages, so that users can follow the model, get notified when new videos are added with the model, see all the videos the model is in, etc.
In order to get paid for a video, you either can have an agreement with the independent producer that uploaded the video; ie. some pay a lump sum, etc. Or, the better way is to become an independent producer yourself with your own channel! The process is simple and takes only a few minutes. Even if you don't upload videos, you can still make money from other videos you're in. And of course you can upload videos too. RFC automatically shares the revenues with you!
RFC allows the uploader to choose whether or not to share the revenues earned from the video with the other models. The default is YES. You can check the status of revenue sharing for any video (that you're in) in the My Videos section. Videos that you are receiving a share from will have a gold "$" next to the title. Videos that were uploaded prior to you creating your channel may not include you. You should contact us and/or the uploaders to update that. However, all future videos that you're where the uploaded opted to share revenues will automatically share with you.
We cannot go back in time and retroactively pay models for videos uploaded in the past. However, we can work with you to compensate for lost time by weighting your revenue share of future videos, doing additional promotions of your content to our users, etc.
No. This creates mess and confusion for users. However, unlike other fan platforms, we allow sharing of revenues for multiple models in the video, for both streaming and downloads. The Model/Producer that uploads the video should leave the default option to Share Revenues with all models, otherwise all revenues will go to the uploader. Models can check their My Videos section to make sure revenues are being properly shared. Duplicate video uploads will be rejected by our content management team. Contact us if you have any questions or concerns about revenue sharing or anything else.
Once you are approved as a Model/Producer, you will have access to a Model/Producer control panel in your RFC account which provides many functions for setting up and configuring your channel, including but not limited to uploading avatars, customizing channel text and graphics, managing videos, configuring payment options, running reports, linking your Twitter account and promotional tools and much more.
Model/Producers get paid through two mechanisms:
Fan Signups
RFC has comprehensive mechanisms to reward Channel operators for attracting users (and compelling them to signup). For every fan (aka member) that you sign up, you earn a 50% revenue share of their initial and recurring memberships fees for the lifetime of their subscription (ie. until they cancel or they are terminated for non-payment).
You get credited for a signup if:
Streaming and Downloads
For streaming, channel owners receive a proportional share of 30% of total membership revenues as calculated by the ratio of their channel's uploaded videos' viewed minutes versus total minutes viewed on site.
For downloads, channel owners receive 60% of the purchase price of the download.
As an incentive for producers to become part of the RFC Channels family, we are offering up to a $500 signup bonus. If you were referred to RFC from an active producer, that producer would be entitled to a referral bonus, otherwise, if you sought us our yourself with no referral, the producer signing up may be entitled to a bonus.
In order to qualify for the bonus, the following conditions must be met:
1. producer must be approved by RFC Channels
2. producer must upload a minimum of 5 qualifying videos*
3. producer must link their Twitter account
4. producer must provide a custodian of records where 2257 documentation is held and a sample model release form
The bonus amount ranges anywhere from $50 to $500, and is determined by RFC Channels based on many criteria including but not limited to suitability of content for our audience, library of work (quantity of videos), age of library, production quality, technical quality, average runtime of videos, current production throughput (how many videos are you currently making per month) and number of Twitter followers.
After you or the channel you referred has uploaded the first batch of videos (minimum 5), we will do our review.
To be qualified for use on RFC Channels, videos must meet these requirements:
Supported devices include PC's running Windows 10, Macs running MacOS 10.14 or newer, iPhone/iPads running iOS 10.3.4 or newer, and Android devices running Android 10.3.4 or newer. Devices more than 5 years old, even with a supported OS, may have performance issues that can cause poor playback.
Supported browsers include the browser that came with your device, including and additionally, Safari, Edge, Chrome, Firefox. Other browsers may work but aren't supported.
Unlike OF/JFF, this site presents videos from a multitude of producers within a single user experience to a very large and diverse base of customers. We have a content review process and much more metadata, like previews, screenshots, categories, channels, model listings, revenue distribution, etc. Our content managers release your content on a schedule that they determine to maximize the exposure and revenue from your content, while also providing a diverse offering to our customers. The more content you upload, the more frequently your content will be released. Do not wait for videos to go up before uploading more as that will have the opposite effect.
A Referral link is a web URL that Model/Producers and/or Affiliates can post to redirect users to RFC. The Promotion tools provide various links to different places of the site, such as the homepage, a channel page or a particular video; these links are use depending on the context of the referral. Ie. if you're promoting a particular video, you may want to link to the video directly, whereas a generic brand referral would redirect to the homepage. A Model/Producer will likely want to redirect their fans directly to their channel page.
Referral links can be posted to redirect traffic from any HTML-editable source or platform that allows for links. Ie. Twitter automatically accepts URLs as links. Whereas if you run your own website or blog, you can put the URLs in your code. Ie. an A HREF tag. However, most modern systems are much more sophisticated at handling links.
When you are logged into your account, click the yellow or green My Account icon at the top-right of the screen. A menu will appear with account functions and channel functions.
The Channel functions include:
Model/Producers have 4 reports and Affiliates have 2 reports available.
Model/Producers:
Affiliates:
These are common terms in the realm of affiliate marketing. They will be more common to affiliates than Model/Producers, but both should understand them, especially since Model/Producers are now marketers in the age of social media.
Here's a brief description of the terms:
Absolutely, as long as you don't have an exclusivity agreement with an entity, such as a site or model, with respect to a particular video or all videos you produce, that precludes you from working with us. If you're content is a good fit for RFC, we'd love to work with you!
Content managers review all uploads and determine how they are presented to users on RFC. Content is promoted in a variety of different ways, including but not limited to, availability in different areas of the site (homepage, theme channels, seatch, etc), email marketing, email notifications, and twitter notifications (posts, retweets).
15-20 minute videos are likely the optimal balance of exposure and length. The more videos you have, the more likely they are to be clicked..And the longer they are, the more minutes they'll be viewed. Total minutes viewed is the key to earning money!
All purchases made by customers, and payments to affiliates and producers, are in US Dollars ($). Conversion rates by your bank or payment platform may apply.
