It's not an mlm?? Who told you that😂😂
Let's tackle this question in detail.
The OnlyFans Affiliate Model
If you’re not familiar with how referral oraffiliate marketingworks it’s really simple. When someone uses your code or link to buy something or register for a service, they get a commission. In the case of user-based companies, like OnlyFans, affiliate programs are a great way to increase your user base quickly.
If you’re a member and someone signs up using your referral code you actually collect 5% of their earningsfor an entire year.[Note from Purgatory- it used to be forever, IIRC]
What’s important to note here is that is incredibly scalable passive income. Anyone would find that attractive and some people earn substantial profits just through referrals and affiliates. Affiliate marketing itself isn’t a scam and many online creators have some part of their online income coming from affiliate earnings. MLMs just happen to also use referral or affiliate programs for their recruitment to incentivise members to recruit.

It Turns OnlyFans Into an MLM – Sort of
AnMLM, or multi-level marketing company, is essentially a pyramid with the people at the top benefitting from everyone under them – a pyramid scheme. While this referral model isn’texactlythe same, there are a lot of shocking similarities to those types of companies.
First of all, you can base your entire business on referrals.Just like with an MLM company, you can make the bulk of your OnlyFans profit not with your own sales, but with your “team”. Coaching a team, rather than producing your own content, is big business in the OnlyFans world.
Blown out incomes lure people in.Imagine going from poverty to making over $30,000a month.Those stories are being shared around, but the truth is that those are the top 1% earners. And the top1% of OnlyFans accounts earn 33% of the money coming in on OnlyFans.
Direct sales folks use similar tactics but the reality for both is a lot of work for a lot less money.
Easy money and lifestyle selling.If the money isn’t enough these folks sell you on joining their lifestyle. Just like Tupperware lets you “party for a living”, OnlyFans creators can allegedly earn an income by uploading a few pictures from the comfort of their home.

Pressure, pressure, pressure.When all else fails, many MLMs and OnlyFans affiliates use this tactic – and you might not even realize it’s happening. Things like, “Hey, babe” (or “Hey boss babe” from MLMs) and “Come on, you’d be great at this!”.
All of this is bad enough when you’re trying to coerce adults into joining, but imagine if you used these same tactics on children?

The creator says that when you’re 18 you can join the platform and you, too, can make money. They might even invite you to a private group or Discord server to get tips and tricks if you sign up with their link.
Everyone is welcoming and supportive.
Kids Are Being Groomed
Now that it’s mainstream, people are asking teenagers to make OnlyFans when they turn 18. Two groups are responsible: Creepy people who find them attractive and want to see those types of pictures and predatory affiliates who think they can profit off young girls

So, tell me, what's more important? The differences between OF's financial model and a classic MLM, or the similarities?
