As a Producer, you have committed to adhering to the Publishing Rules, which mandate the maintenance of ID and consent recordkeeping for all models featured in your videos. Beginning December 15, 2024, to ensure adherence to banking and governmental regulations, we will require that all documentation be uploaded into our documentation management system and accessible to compliance regulators. This can be achieved through several methods.

• If the model is a model-producer, we already have their documentation as it was provided during the application process.
• If there is a red "+" icon next to a model on your Premium videos page, you can upload the photo ID for the indicated model and digitally attest to consent.
• Alternatively, you can advise the model to register online at secure.eiserne.videoapp.net/register

The compliance status of videos updates automatically. Please allow a day or so for documents to be reviewed and processed by our Compliance team.

It is crucial to take these requirements and your attestations seriously. You are vital to this platform, but you must not engage in illegal activities. Any model-producer found committing perjury will face legal and additional consequences.

As always, let us know how we can help.

All models that appear on this site are required to register online at secure.eiserne.videoapp.net/register

Models are entitled to receive revenue share payments and may be eligible for retroactive payments. Registering is the first step. If you are unsure of your registration status, simply register again. There is no harm in registering multiple times, especially if you have moved, changed your primary photo ID, etc.

To make money on RFC, you need an approved producer account. If you aren't already a producer, you can apply now. Join RFC as a user (this is a free no CC required). Then, complete the producer application found in the top-right account menu "Become a Producer." Once approved, you can start uploading videos.

Some terms used in this discussion: Models on RFC are individuals who appear in videos. Qualified models are models who appear in videos and have an RFC independent producer account. Producers are entities that have an RFC independent producer account, and can either be production studios, pro-am studios, or models. A producer account is required to receive revenues from RFC. Models who appear in videos and don't have a producer account are encouraged to get one. RFC will provide retroactive revenues for any models who appear in videos that were uploaded prior to the model becoming a producer. Ask your content manager.

RFC's payment system automatically distributes streaming and download revenues to models every day. If a video features multiple qualified models, the revenues will automatically be divided up equally and paid to models. Additionally, rewards are built into the system providing videos with more performers with additional total revenue share, up to a total of 50%. If a producer owns the rights to the content they upload, they can choose to receive all of the revenues. Additional documentation may be required.

There are many ways Producers make money on RFC:

• Revenue sharing from Members
• Streaming video rentals
• Channel passes
• Downloads
• Signup referrals (from X, other social media) 
• Performance bonuses
• Producer referals

Revenue sharing from Members

Producers receive a share of membership revenues based on pro-rated share of streaming minutes viewed for videos they upload and/or appear in that are uploaded by other producers. 

Users must have membership plans to stream videos. The revenues from these plans is aggregated on a daily basis and shared with producers. Both signups and renewals of plans contribute to the total revenues. Up to 50% of these membership revenues are distributed daily to producers. Daily total net membership revenues are allocated for each video based on the percentage share that video was streamed by users. Shares may fluctuate due to dynamic performance incentivization algortithms; ie. producers who link their X accounts or have more followers may have higher shares than those who don't. The standard operating shares are shown in table below.

Here is a simple example:

On a given day, 100 videos are viewed, each for 10 minutes, by users. A total of 1000 streaming minutes for the day. Membership revenues from signups and renewals for the day are $10,000. The pro-rated share for each of these videos is calculated by dividing the number of minutes the each video was viewed by users for day by the total number of minutes viewed by users for all videos for day. So, for these example videos, the pro-rated share of daily revenues is 10 / (100x10), or 1% each. Multiply this percentage by the Streaming Share (%) from table below. And, lastly, multiply by total membership revenues for day. This gives us the daily revenue generated for each video. Each of the 100 videos in this example generated 1% x 40% x $10,000, or $40, for the day. A total of $4000.

We assumed each video had 5 models for the example. Of course this will vary in the real world. If the producer chose the default equal revenue sharing option for the videos, each model would receive $8 for each video on this day. $500 for each model. In the real world, of course, there are literally thousands of videos, hundreds of qualified models, different sharing options and different models in each video.

This same logic is used to distribute revenues for all videos on RFC, every day.

The key to generating revenues with streaming is to maximize the number of minutes your videos are viewed. This is achieved my maximizing exposure of your videos on the site (ie. appearing on What's Hot, being a new release, being pinned to theme channels, etc.), having engaging content that users will spend the most time viewing, and of course, the length of the content. Group scenes over 15 minutes in duration, with many different angles and sub-groupings, tend to outperform in terms of streaming minutes.

Streaming video rentals

Users have the option of renting videos on an individual basis for a short period of time, typically 3 days. A membership plan is not required for these rentals and rental revenues are directly shared with producers, using the same sharing model as downloads (see below).

Channel passes

In addition to renting individual videos, users can purchase a channel pass. This pass, similar to video rentals, is for a short period of time, typically 7 days, but provides unlimited access to all videos in a specific channel. Users can purchase multiple channels passes. Revenues are similarly shared with producers for these passes.

Downloads

Producers receive a share of revenues from purchases of downloads for videos they upload and/ or appear in that are uploaded by other producers. 

Downloads are purchased by users a la carte, at a price typically around $10. You can work with your content manager to adjust download prices in line with your business objectives.  Up to 100% of download revenues are distributed to producers. Similar to streaming, videos with more models generate higher total payouts in an effort to help equalize payments to all models and to incentivize group scenes (see table below, Download Share (%) ). 

Downloads are discrete transactions, as opposed to the complex daily computations used for membership revenues. If a user downloads a video for $10 and there are 2 qualified models in the video, 60% of $10 is shared between the 2 models. $3 each. Downloads can happen zero, or multiple, times per day for a given video. Some membership plans provide users with discounts, ie. 5%, on downloads. Payouts are based on the discounted amount.

All uploaders of content to this site are required to attest, under threat of perjury, that they understand and will comply with the Publshing Rules set forth here by digitally signing their attestion when applying for an account, and additionally, when uploading content. Digital signatures are recorded and are legally binding. Falsifying an attestion of compliance is not only illegal, but is also grounds for immediate termination of your account on this site and forfeiture of any revenues or rights heretofore provided. 

Publishing Rules can be read here:

secure.eiserne.videoapp.net/info/publishing

There are two pay periods each month. Payments are processed as follows:

You will likely receive payment on or before date above. However, actual payment dates vary due to transit times of payment methods and additional lead times due to weekends, bank holidays, processing exceptions, etc. There is a $25 minimum payment amount. Held payments are accrued.

There are very compelling reasons to link your X:

• When users click your RFC-generated posts on X/Twitter, they are automatically tracked with cookies and other tech to your account. If any of these users subsequently joins RFC, you receive 50% of membership fees for the life of these users! This share is "off the top" with no discounts or fees. For example, if Joe Blow clicks a new release post on your X/Twitter and signs up a week later for the $149.70 RFC plan, you receive $74.85 instantly! And when that plan renews, you receive another $74.85. And so on for the life of the user. This compounds and adds up over time as you build a base of customers.
• Producers who link their X receive much more exposure on RFC. Only linked producers appear in the What's Hot, Trending and Socially Active sections. More exposure directly correlates to more minutes viewed of your videos and therefore more revenue.
• Producers who link their X get an X icon on their channel page which drives traffic directly back to you! 
• Linking X is one of the requirements to automatically receive a pro-bono (free) RFC membership as a producer.
• RFC engages and interacts on X with linked producers and we command several hundred thousands followers over several accounts.
• RFC re-posts popular content for linked producers, generating even more revenues. Popular content appears in even more high profile areas on the RFC site, snowballing revenues.
• Lastly and not leastly, even though its not strictly enforced, having your primary X account linked is a requirement to be an RFC producer. Your X presence is used for vertification and identification of both you and your content. Without it, we may require additional documentation.

You can report videos or posts for the following reasons:

• Technical problem
• Violent or repulsive content
• Hateful or abusive content
• Harmful dangerous acts
• Child abuse
• Spam or misleading
• Infringes my rights

For DMCA or copyright concerns, ie. if you appear in a video for which you did not give permission to the producer who uploaded the content, choose the last option, "Infringes my rights."

The "Report issue with content" link appears in the 3-dot menus of every video and post on the site. For videos, the 3-dot menu appears on the page that plays the full video, just under the video player, on the right-hand side.

For all reports, fill out and submit the respective form. Our policy is to review and resolve all reported content complaints within seven (7) business days. In the event there is evidence of illegal content, it will be removed immediately and the Acquirer(s) will be notified of the event. 

If you see your videos on a piracy site, follow these instructions and we will use our proprietary digital fingerprinting technology to identify the pirate, if possible, and blacklist the pirate; and file DMCA takedowns with the piracy site's domain owner, domain registrar (ie. Godaddy, Enom, etc.), and ISP (hosting provider), Google and Microsoft (search providers).

Video must meet the following requirements:

• Video is your intellectual property or your appear in video
• Video has RFC watermarks and/or RFC digital fingerprinting (the flashing "squiggles" in top-right and bottom-left corners)
• You have not assigned rights in writing in any way that could possibly allow the video to appear on referenced alleged piracy site. For example, RFC provides short preview clips to sites like Mansurfer and Pornhub for promotion of the site, and this is permitted per our Producer Agreement. These are legitimate. Note that full-length videos are never legitimate but oftentimes clips are.

If Video meets the above requirements, send us the complete URL and this is what we will do:

• If video was "stolen" from RFC less than 90 days ago, we will blacklist the user's username, IP address, email address, credit card(s), MAC address and other identifying information from RFC. Pirates generally steal accounts and hop from account to account, so anything older than this is useless. 
• Regardless of age or if fingerprints can be decoded, we will also submit DMCA takedowns to the piracy site in question. If we have a "relationship" with the piracy site in question, we will reach out to them through those channels.
• If the piracy site in question is a repeat offender, we will have our law firm, M*u*l*l*e*n P*C, based in Manhattan, send a strongly worded letter to the WHOIS contact for the domain and to the abuse@ contacts for the hosting ISP. We will also submit formal complaints to Google and Microsoft so that the content does not appear in search queries. All of these entities have abuse policies that will ultimately penalize repeat offenders.
• If the piracy site processes credits cards (MC/VISA), our law firm will additional send these organizations a strongly worded letter. MC/VISA are extremely vigilant in this regard and will shut down processing quickly. This happened to all Mindgeek sites, for example, including but not limited to Pornhub, until they removed all pirated content.

Actual copyright litigation through the U.S. federal court system is expensive and timely. But we are indeed capable of pursuing this course of action with large-scale repeat offenders. To be included in this litigation, you would need to have copyrights for all the referenced content.

Sites that we are actively pursuing with our law firm include, but are not limited to:

• PUTINHO.NET
• BOYFRIENDTV.COM

With the exception of Raw Fuck Club original content shown in the "Raw Fuck Club" channel, all videos on the site have been uploaded by independent producers and/or 3rd party studios. All independent producers and studios have digitally signed an agreement for each uploaded video stating that they have permission from the models in the video to post the content on the site. If you dispute this, you should first reach out to the uploader and discuss this with them. They can remove the video. If you need to engage us, feel free to open a ticket. If you would like to demand the removal of your content, report the video using a DMCA takedown request.

Note that all models on the site are indexed for searchability and automatically get a model page. Model pages allow users to follow a model, get notified when new videos are added featuring the model, view all videos featuring the model, etc.

If you would like to Become a Producer from videos featuring you, you can create an independent producer account so that we can link the videos with an account that you control. The process is simple and takes only a few minutes. Even if you don't upload videos, you may still be entitled to make money from the videos you are featured in. And of course, with an account, you can upload videos too. RFC automatically shares the revenues with you! 

You need to have a free RFC account to submit a Model/Producer Application. So, create a free account first. No CC; just your username, password and email. Then click the Become a Producer link in your account menu, click the Model/Producer option button and follow the instructions to complete your application. Be careful not to submit an Affiliate application. You'll be quickly approved and ready to start making money! A Model/Producer control panel will be available in your RFC account to access your Channel settings, where you customize your channel and upload videos, run reports, etc.

If you have rights to the videos featuring you, you have a right to get paid retroactively for revenues. Contact us when you submit your application. We'll expedite your approval and calculate how much you would have earned. As a signup bonus, we'll reimburse you for these revenues. 

RFC allows the independent producers to choose whether or not to share revenues earned from any uploaded video with 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 where the uploader opts to share revenues will automatically share with you.

RFC features both RFC original content that is produced by Raw Fuck Club, the iconic gay porn studio, plus a multitude of independently produced content that is uploaded to the site. RFC considers producers to be individuals who create channels and upload content, and models as individuals who perform in videos. Models can be producers, they can feature in their own works, they can be featured in RFC original content and/or they can be featured in works produced by independent producers.

If you are interested in having a channel on RFC, aka an independent producer, follow these steps: Create a free account on RFC first. No CC required; just your username, password and email. Then click the Become a Producer link in your account menu, click the Model/Producer option button and follow the instructions to complete your application. Be careful not to submit an Affiliate application. Once you're approved, a Model/Producer control panel will be available in your RFC account to access your Channel settings, where you customize your channel and upload videos, run reports, etc. Approval can take up to a week, so please be patient.

If you are interested in being a model for RFC or another producer on RFC, click the send a message button from the respective channel and message the producer. Each producer, whether it be RFC or an independent producer, has different procedures. It doesn't hurt your cause to create a profile on RFC and upload some photos, videos, etc. exhibiting your many talents.

Both the producer and uploader of video must maintain copies of 2257 documentation including date of production and complete list of models; and for each model in video, model releases (must explicitly or implicitly allow use on RFC Channels and its network of sites) and government IDs showing proof of age. This documentation may be requested by RFC at any time, such as when DMCA/copyrights claims arise or if a compliance audit is ordered, and uploader must provide immediately or content will be removed. 

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. 

Login to your RFC account, and click Setup in your My Channel menu. Scroll down to the Visibility section and choose "Offline." Your channel and all of your videos will no longer be available online to users. You will, however, still be able to login to run reports, update payment information, etc. You can, in the future, revert this change.

Taxes are not withhold from your payments. You are responsible to pay taxes as per the rules of your country.

For US entities that earn over $600 for tax year 2025, we will issue a 1099 in January for 2025 earnings.1099s appear from corporate entity SVOTHI INC d/b/a PPVNetworks.

If you earned over $600, a 1099 form will be available for download in the ID, Taxes and Payment section. You can check your earnings for a given year in the Reports section, Ie. click Prior Year, or a custom date range, for Dates and Daily Summary for View. Click Display.

Premium videos must meet the following requirements:

• 10 minutes or longer in duration
• 16:9 (landscape) and sometimes 9:16 (portrait), orientations only. Letterboxing, pillarboxing, windowboxing, excessive cropping/rescaling/anamorphics, and stylized fills are all not allowed.
• 1080P resolution or higher
• H.264 codec with audio (mono or stereo). Apple and HDR codecs are not allowed.
• No competitive watermarks (JFF, OF). @Twitter mentions, personal websites and/or Linktree addresses are allowed but frowned up because these can change in the future while videos are forever.
• All models must be listed. Anonymous models must be listed using an alias or stage name that is consistent across videos, and photo ID and social media accounts are required.
• Producer must maintain copies of documentation including date of production and complete list of models; and for each model in video, model releases (must explicitly or implicitly allow use on "RFC and its network of sites") and government IDs showing proof of age. Producer must provide this documentation, and any other information deemed necessary such as social media accounts, immediately upon request or content/channel may be removed.
• Video must include 2 or more performers and show anal penetration.
• All models depicted must be identifyable. Ie. anonymous just-holes or just-cocks are not allowed, but if the full body is shown and reasonably identifyable, such as a masked model with a tat of a rabbit on his left shoulder, this may be acceptable. Approval of these videos is, as with all videos, subject to content manager's discretion. Content manager will most likely request additional proofs, including but not limited to photo ID, model releases and social media accounts.
• Video must be bareback and condom-free.
• Video, including but not limited to videographic production and technical details, must be approved by content manager.
• Video must not be a duplicate, uploaded by you or any other another producer. Note that revenues are shared with models through our revenue distribution system, not by each model uploading the same content.
• Compilations (aka comps) may be allowed at content managers discretion.
• Video must pass compliance check, including but not limited to no underage performers, no illegal acts, etc. Videos with perception of illegal activity or underrage performers are, as with all videos, subject to content manager's discretion. Content manager will most likely request additional proofs, including but not limited to photo ID, model releases and social media accounts.
• Video must also meet all requirements in Publishing Rules, including but not limited to those set forth with respect to Restrictions, Age Verification, Model Releases, Copyrights, User Content, Review, Payment Networks Compliance and Compliance with Federal, State and local laws
• Pay-Per-View videos have additional requirements. Please check the FAQ and instruction of respective upload page.

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.

Simply login, click the green/yellow/red icon at the top right, and click My Email, My Credit Card or My Password.

As an incentive for Producers to become part of RFC, we are offering signup and referral bonuses up to $500.

If you were referred to RFC from an active producer, the referring producer could be entitled to a referral bonus. If you sought us our yourself with no referral, you may be entitled to a signup bonus!

In order to qualify for the bonus, both producers must meet the following conditions:

1. be approved by RFC.
2. upload a minimum of 5 qualifying videos*.
3. link their X account for co-promotion of content.
4. To show good faith that our Publishing Rules are being respected, the first video uploaded must be be flagged "compliant" in our model documentation system. Producer can check compliance status of their videos in the Premium Videos section on producer acocunt, and if necessary, upload missing documents. Models should also be encouraged to register directly with us.

Bonus is based on many criteria including but not limited to suitability of content, size of your... library, freshness of content provided, technical and production quality, throughput (rate of new releases) and number of X and Bluesky followers.

Please reach out to us if you would like to be considered for a bonus.

Producer's album is called Teasers, but the functionality of albums and teasers is the same.

Public and Private are visibility settings for photos and videos. To change the visibility for a photo or video, click the green/red visibility badge below the item in your album to toggle between Public and Private.

Public items can be seen by all users. Exception: if an item contains X-rated content, for compliance reasons, it will only be visible to users who are logged into the site.

Private items cannot be seen unless your album is unlocked. Once unlocked for a user, he will be able to see all private photos and videos in your album

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:

• Setup
• Promote
• Reports
• Payment
• My Videos
• Broadcast

When you're logged in, click on the profile icon on the top right corner of the page. Under 'MY CHANNEL', click on 'Premium'. Then, click on the + Video icon under notes where it reads "Click + Video to add a video."

All channel owners are considered independent producers on RFC. All producers are able to upload videos into their channel. If the producer appears in videos on RFC, regardless of who produced them, he is considered a model-producer. It's important to note that all models who receive revenues from RFC must have a model-producer type account, whether or not they upload videos themselves. If a couple or thruple wishes to share one account, and all are models, ask your content manager to setup your account as a "combo account." A combo account allows one account to handle revenue tracking for a producer and multiple models. Note that the models in a combo account do not individually have model-producer accounts, as is typical, because all revenues funnel into the one combo account.

Please make sure your videos are indeed released. Videos still in queue or that have been rejected cannot generate revenues. You can check the status of your uploads in the Premium section of your account. To check the revenues you've earned from streaming, downloads and referrals, login to your independent producer account, click your avatar on the top right, then click Reports. The Daily Summary report, the default view, shows a summary of revenues per day. Choose a date range, then click Display. There are other reports in the View pulldown for view more specific reporting on the 3 ways you can generate revenues: streaming, downloads and referrals. 

Check your SPAM or Bulk mail folder. If there's nothing there, wait an hour and check again. If still no love, try contacting us by clicking Contact from the main menu, give us an alternate email address from a different mail provider and we'll figure it out.

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! 

Initially, contact damian@ppvnetworks.com. You may subsequently be assigned an account manager but Damian will help you get started.

Teasers are an album of photos and videos for producers, with a focus on marketing your brand to users. This is free promotional content. Teasers are viewable by users on your channel page if their visibility is "public." You can also unlock all of your teasers for specific users. And you can share individual videos and photos from your teasers in comments, posts and messages.

These are your My Account icons. 

The green icon indicates that you are logged into an account with an active (in good standing) paid membership plan. You have full access to site features and video streaming.

The yellow icon indicates that you are logged into an account that doesn't have an active membership plan. This account is free and has limited functionality. In order to access full site features and stream full-length videos, you will need to add a membership plan. Click the My Account icon, then click Membership, then Add Plan.

If the icon at the top right is red, then you aren't logged in. You can peruse the site with limited features and previews only.

We require the following to prove your identity, age and residency:

• government photo ID, must include date of birth. ie. passport, drivers license, national identity card, military ID, state ID
• back of government photo ID, only required if any of the following appear on back:
  • full name
  • ID number
  • birth date
• additional ID, ie. bank/credit card, birth certificate, social security card, voter registration, or an additional government photo ID (not used above). 
• selfie holding both IDs. Face and front of ID's (including photo and name) should be clear and legible. Faces should visibly match.

All photos must be color, unretouched, and high-resolution. All text must be clear and legible.

Go here to recover your account details.

If video distributed without permission, we can decode the fingerprints to identify the account that captured it, including the date-time, their IP address and other details. Digital fingerprinting can be turned on under MY CHANNEL > Setup.

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:

• Net. This is the amount you earned after any, if applicable, deductions or sharing.
• Joins. Aka Signups or Conversions. This is the act of a member signing up and adding a paid plan.
• Rebills. Aka Renewals or Recurring transactions. This is when a member's plan renews at the end of the plan period, either month, or every 3 months or 6 months.
• Clicks. This is when a user physically clicks one of your referral links. Ie. on your twitter page or wherever.
• Ratio. Aka converstion ratio. This is the ratio of signups to clicks. Ie. 1:100 means that for every 100 clicks, a member signed up. 
• $/Click. This expresses how much money was made for each click of your links. 
• $/Join. This expresses how much money you made for each signup. In the context of the reports, this is an average for the time period. Ie. the Signups report shows these values for each day in a date range.

Report it to us and we will investigate the behavior. SPAM is rare on our closed platform, but it does happen occasionally.

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.

Model/Producers have 4 reports and Affiliates have 2 reports available.

Model/Producers:

• Daily Summary
• Streaming
• Downloads
• Signups

Affiliates:

• Daily Summary
• Signups

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!

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.

Thanks for raising this — you’re seeing a very real (and very common) dynamic on discovery-based video platforms, including RFC.

What’s happening (and why it’s not unique to RFC)

Because several hundred new videos are uploaded each week, attention naturally clusters around what’s new. Viewers have limited time, feeds prioritize freshness + engagement signals, and “high exposure” sections (Trending / What’s Hot / Most Liked, etc.) are driven by current momentum. The result is a recency effect: older videos can get “buried” even if they performed well at the time.

That doesn’t mean your back catalog is “dead.” It means older content typically needs nurturing the way a music artist’s older tracks do: the catalog keeps earning when it’s consistently re-introduced to new viewers and re-activated with engagement and external traffic.

Why comparing this to an OnlyFans-style model isn’t apples-to-apples

On an OnlyFans-style account, fans usually arrive intentionally — they’re already seeking that specific creator from the creator’s own social funnel, and then consume the library directly. RFC has a larger discovery component: many viewers enter through feeds, categories, trending sections, and recommendations rather than by searching for one creator. That difference makes “set it and forget it” less effective — but it also means you can earn from new audiences continuously if you work the ecosystem.

Best practices we see improve earnings on RFC

1) Build a release cadence (so your channel stays “alive”)

Regular publishing helps your entire channel get resurfaced. Even if each upload is smaller, consistency creates repeat touchpoints with the audience and more chances for your videos to land in higher-exposure placements.

Practical approaches:

• Create a series format (Episode 1, 2, 3…) so viewers naturally binge.

• Batch-produce and schedule releases to maintain a steady rhythm.

• Use new uploads to “pull” viewers into older videos (more on this below).

2) Use your new uploads to revive your back catalog

Every new release is a billboard for your older content. The creators who do best treat each newBC (“back catalog”) title as something to be “re-sold” repeatedly.

Tactics:

• In your captions/descriptions, add: “If you liked this, watch next:” and point to 1–3 older videos.

• Post a “Part 2” / “follow-up” that references the older piece: “This continues what we started in…”

• Make a “Best of / Starter Pack” post on your channel: “New here? Start with these.”

3) Optimize for engagement (because engagement drives distribution)

Feeds respond to signals like watch-through, likes, comments, saves, and repeat viewing. That’s why two similar videos can earn differently: one sparks engagement, one doesn’t.

Simple upgrades that reliably help:

• Add a clear CTA: “If you want more of this, like/comment so it hits more feeds.”

• Reply to comments early after posting (momentum matters).

• Encourage specific comments (e.g., “Comment which one you want next”) — specific prompts outperform “thoughts?”

4) Nurture older content with “events,” not random reposts

Instead of occasionally posting “hey here’s an old one,” give people a reason to care now.

Ideas:

• Throwback/From the Vault: “This one blew up when it dropped — if you missed it…”

• Seasonal tie-ins: resurface content that fits a moment/holiday/topic trend.

• Milestones: “Hit 100K views—celebrating by unlocking/spotlighting…”

• Creator commentary: “Here’s what you didn’t see / what I’d do differently today.”

5) Work intentionally toward “high exposure” sections

Trending/What’s Hot placements typically reward velocity: how quickly a video earns engagement relative to its impressions. You can influence that.

Momentum checklist:

• Prime your audience before release (teaser clip, countdown, “drop time”).

• Post when your audience is most active (use your past performance as a guide).

• Ask your audience for a specific first-hour action (watch + like + comment).

• Follow up the next day with a clip that links viewers back to the full video.

6) Drive off-platform traffic (social is a force multiplier)

Platforms reward outside traffic because it signals demand. The key is to send people to a specific video, not just your profile.

High-performing pattern:

• Post short teaser clips on social.

• Use one clear link/CTA: “Full video on RFC: [Title]”

• Repost the teaser 3–5 times over two weeks with different hooks (most viewers don’t see it the first time).

• Pin your best-performing teaser and keep that funnel running.

7) Use RFC monetization tools to convert “viewers” into “fans”

Discovery is great — but earnings stabilize when you build a direct fan base inside RFC.

• Rentals are strongest for:

  • premium one-off releases, special events, longer features, “director’s cut,” or early access

• Channel passes are strongest for:

  • creators with a growing library who want recurring support and predictable earnings

Best practice: mention rentals/passes explicitly in your content and social posts. Don’t assume viewers will find them on their own — a simple line like “If you want full access, channel pass is the easiest way to support” can materially move conversions.

8) Partner with a content manager when you have “proven winners”

If you have older videos that were popular at the time, that’s valuable evidence. A content manager can help identify which pieces are most likely to resurface and how to package them for today’s audience (timing, positioning, and promotion strategy).

To make that collaboration effective, send:

• The titles/links of your strongest older performers

• What made them work (topic, format, niche)

• Any spikes you’ve seen when you posted them on social

The following two options are available revenue sharing of producer uploaded videos:

Option 1 : "All qualifying models and Producer receive an equal share."
[DEFAULT]

This is a good option if all models agreed to share in the monetization of the video, such as is common with "collabs." Everyone receives an equal share, including registered models/model-producers and the uploading Producer. Note: Producer receives the same share as models, whether or not he appears as a model in the video; all shares are equal.

Option 2 : "No revenue sharing with models. Producer keeps all revenues."
[REQUIRES ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTATION]

This option is available only if producer owns 100% rights to commercialize the video, specifically as these rights apply to PPVNetworks Sites. Producer must digital attest to 100% ownership rights, under threat of perjury, and must provide model releases from all models that appear in video confirming these rights and specifying how the models were compensated. Please send the consent documentation to your content manager. Once approved, all revenues are distributed to the producer. 

*Registered models and model-producers are models that appear in videos on PPVNetworks Sites that are setup with an account to receive payment through online registration or legacy producer application process.

Premium videos are what drives the site! They are the full-length videos that are uploaded by producers, and featured throughout the site, organized by channels, themes, what's hot, and so on. They are available for streaming and/or download by users. Both streaming and downloads generate revenues for producers and models; streaming based on minutes viewed and downloads based on per unit pricing. A much more comprehensive discussion of streaming and downloads is available.

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, search, etc), email marketing, email notifications, and twitter notifications (posts, retweets). 

There are many ways to control volume for, and/or mute, videos. These may function independently so be sure to check them all. Most audio related issues involve one of these:

• on the bottom-right of the video player is a volume/speaker icon. clicking the icon mutes/unmutes the video. there is also a volume level indicator that can be clicked to adjust the level of volume.
• some browsers allow the tab/site to be muted. you can control this by right-clicking the browser tab and selecting Mute Site/Unmute Site.
• some devices allow system control of volume independently of the above controls. these can include an icon in the system tray, volume buttons on the device and/or settings to choose output audio device and volume level in a system control panel. Some devices allow control of different types of audio, ie. media vs. notifications, so make sure to choose media or comparable on your device.

If you still experience issues with volume on one or more videos, check to see if the problem exists for all videos or just one. Also test to see if you can play sound on other web sites using the same browser tab. Send us a message with a link to the video and the results of these tests and we'll take a look immediately.

If a message or user is removed for SPAM or other violating behavior, this may happen. We cannot unsend notification emails to you. 

Login to your account and check the Promote page, Twitter Controls, New Releases. There are two options: Only tweet my new releases and Tweet all new releases (including other channels).Choosing the second option will tweet every time a new video is added to the site. The advantage of this is that you generate revenues whenever a fan joins. However, you may not wish to promote other models. Hence you are given the choice. The default is to tweet only your new releases.

RFC processes many-hundreds of videos for hundreds of producers every month. RFC human-reviews all content, video and metadata, for banking regulatory compliance and legal guidance. RFC is required to make sure all models depicted are accounted for. We create model pages for all new models. RFC creates a preview for every video, and chooses still photos and categories. We do a lot for each and every video, and yes, much of it is automated but much of it also requires the laborious efforts of our content managers. We also have committed release schedules for some producers; we prioritize producers with more videos in their queue and videos based on demand by users, ie. what's selling best, what's trending; we deprioritize videos based on various content and technical concerns, if we're waiting for and/or researching information, or if content not qualifying. For this reason, on any given day, many videos get bumped up and down in the queue. We use complex algorithms to estimate queued release dates. You see these "queued for release" dates next to your uploads. These dates represent a best-effort algorithmic estimate, not a committed release date. If you need a committed date for a specific video release, please coordinate that with your content manager and we will do our best to help you.

It's worthy to note that RFC prioritizes your releases if you have more than 10 videos in the queue. Furthermore, having videos queued up in advance allows videos to be released continuously as opposed to waiting several weeks each time you upload. The morale of the story is, don't upload one and wait. Upload many and keep make sure you keep over 10 in the queue.

When you're logged in, click on the profile icon on the top right corner of the page. Under 'MY CHANNEL', click on 'My Videos'. Then, click on the three dot/ellipsis icon on the bottom right corner of the video you would like to remove, and hit 'Delete'.

Login to your RFC account. You must be an approved independent producer. From the My Channel menu, choose Payment. Complete the questions related to your personal/business status, upload a government ID, contact information, etc. You must also choose a Payment Method and provide the relevant account details.

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.

Performance bonuses are dynamically computed and applied every day for producers based on many performance metrics, including but not limited to:

• subjective "quality" of videos (ie. how many videos does producer have in what's hot over past 30 days?)
• is X linked? if so, number of followers?
• objective quality based on comparative metrics; ie. views, likes, follows

Bonuses can range from nothing to upwards of 40% of payouts based simply on above criteria. That's significant, so, meeting the criteria for bonuses is important!

Bonuses appear in your daily revenue reports in the "Bonus" column.

Role accounts are shared email addresses like info@, support@, help@, etc. Due to spamming abuse to these types of email addresses, major ISPs penalize us for sending messages to these types of email addresses. For this reason, we limit their functionality. If you provde a role account email address as your email address to us, we will still send you system messages like password recovery and billing notices, etc., however, you won't receive marketing-related emails, such as notices when producers that you follow upload content. So, overall, its not a critical issue but can limit your full experience of RFC.

There are tricks to outsmart ISPs, however. You can use a feature of email called sub-addressing to receive emails to your role account whilest also not limiting functionality. Simply add "+RFC" into the email address you provide RFC, ie. enter "info+RFC@mysite.com" instead of "info@mysite.com." The email will get delivered to your info@mysite.com account! Or, simply use your name instead of a role account, ie. john@mysite.com. 

Model-producers go must go though an approval process before they are allowed to upload content on RFC. This includes automated and human content moderators reviewing their documentation, including but not limited to, signed attestations and government photo IDs. These requirements are part of our compliance with partner merchant banks and Mastercard/VISA.
