One link instead of five
Your link-in-bio page carries your pay-per-view links, subscription tiers, tip button, request form and wishlist. Fans stop bouncing between platforms, and you stop maintaining five profiles that each tell a different story.
For creators
Everything you sell, one home for your fans
Velvet is a creator monetization platform where pay-per-view content, subscriptions, tips, custom requests and wishlist gifts share one account, one wallet and one withdrawal.
Creator platformcreator monetization platformWhat is Velvet?
Velvet is a creator monetization platform that puts every way you earn (pay-per-view links, recurring subscriptions, tips, paid custom requests and wishlist gifts) into a single account with one wallet you withdraw from. You publish once, share one link, and every sale lands in the same ledger instead of being scattered across five separate tools you have to reconcile by hand.
What changes when everything lives in one place
One wallet, one ledger
Every sale, tip and gift credits the same wallet with a full transaction record. You can answer where this month's money came from without exporting three files and matching them in a spreadsheet.
One payout schedule
Withdraw from that single balance whenever you want, from $50, once a sale has cleared its 7-day hold. No chasing five thresholds, five minimums and five different payout calendars.
One audience, properly segmented
A fan who bought a pay-per-view link, subscribed, tipped or sent a gift is the same person in your fan list. You can message people based on what they actually did, not on which tool happened to record it.
Set your own prices, tiers and rules
Prices, subscription tiers, which custom requests you accept and what appears on your public page are yours to set and change at any time. Nothing is locked to a template, and no default quietly decides for you.
Fans see only what you publish. An item sitting in your vault with no placement is invisible to everyone but you, so you can prepare a drop weeks ahead with no risk of it leaking early.
How fans pay, and how you get paid
Fan payments are processed by secure, industry-standard providers and credited to your Velvet wallet as soon as the purchase clears. Checkout renders on your page rather than sending the fan through a redirect that loses them halfway.
You withdraw from that single balance on your own schedule, and every movement (sale, tip, gift, withdrawal) is written to your wallet ledger.
How to start earning on Velvet
- Create your free creator account and pick your handle: that handle becomes your public page at velvet.fans/yourname.
- Complete identity and payout verification. This is required before your first payout and protects both you and your fans.
- Upload content to your vault. Nothing is public until you place it: vault only, public wall, or subscribers.
- Set your subscription price
- Publish a pay-per-view link for anything you want to sell as a one-off bundle, and share it anywhere you already have an audience.
- Share your link-in-bio page and watch sales land in your wallet, ready to withdraw once they clear.
One platform versus a stack of separate tools
Most creators start with a different tool for each income stream. Here is what that costs you in day-to-day work.
| Separate tools | Velvet | |
|---|---|---|
| Links to share | One per tool, plus a link aggregator | One page covering everything |
| Where money lands | A different balance per tool | One wallet with a full ledger |
| Payouts | Different schedules, thresholds and fees | On demand, from one balance |
| Fan identity | The same fan is a stranger in each tool | One fan record across every purchase |
| Messaging | Export, re-import, hope the lists match | Message fans by what they actually bought |
| Reporting | Manual reconciliation across exports | One ledger, every movement recorded |

Who this fits
You already sell on social
You post on X, Reddit or Telegram and take payment through direct messages. A pay-per-view link replaces that back-and-forth: the fan pays, the content unlocks, and you never send a file to someone who has not paid.
You want recurring income, not only one-off sales
Subscriptions give you a predictable monthly floor while pay-per-view links capture fans who will pay more for a specific drop. Running both from one account means a subscriber can still buy a bundle without leaving your page.
You work with an agency or a closer team
Velvet has native roles for agencies and closers with scoped permissions, so someone can reply to fans and sell pay-per-view content in assigned chats without ever touching your payout settings or your account.
The questions creators ask first
What happens to my account if the platform turns against adult content?
Velvet is built to be adult-creator-friendly, and that is a product decision rather than a tolerance. Payment providers and policies were chosen for this business instead of being adapted to it afterwards, so the rules you read on day one are the rules you operate under.
Who can see my content before I publish it?
Content you upload sits in your vault with no placement, which means nobody but you can see it. It becomes visible only when you place it on your public wall, behind subscribers, or inside a pay-per-view link you publish.
If I give an agency or a closer access, what can they actually do?
Closers reply and sell pay-per-view content only in the conversations assigned to them. They cannot change your prices, your payout details or your channel connections. That boundary is enforced on the server, not merely hidden in the interface.
Terms used on this page
- Content item
- One file with one placement. An item is not a post: a post is an ordered set of up to ten items with a caption and an audience.
- Placement
- Where an item is visible: vault only, public wall, or subscribers. Placement is not a folder: it is who can see the item.
- Pay-per-view link
- A priced, shareable bundle of items. Pay-per-view belongs to a link rather than to a bare file, which is why an item becomes PPV by being included in a published link.
- Vault
- Your private library. Everything you upload lands here first, visible to nobody until you place it.
- Wallet ledger
- The record of every movement of money in your account. Balances are derived from the ledger, which is why what you see always reconciles.
Frequently asked questions
What can I sell on Velvet?
Pay-per-view content links, recurring subscriptions, tips, paid custom requests and wishlist gifts, plus a link-in-bio page that ties everything together. You choose which of these to switch on; none are mandatory.
How much does Velvet cost?
Creating an account and publishing your page is free. Velvet takes a commission on sales rather than charging a monthly fee, so the platform only earns when you do. Current rates are on the pricing page.
How often does Velvet pay out?
You decide. Earnings are credited to your wallet as purchases clear, each sale becomes withdrawable 7 days later, and you request a withdrawal of $50 or more whenever it suits you. Every transaction stays visible in the ledger. Velvet charges 1.5% of the amount withdrawn, never less than $1 and never more than $15, so a large withdrawal is not punished for being large.
Is Velvet suitable for adult creators?
Yes. Velvet is built to be adult-creator-friendly, with payment providers and policies chosen for this type of business rather than retrofitted to it.
Do I need to verify my identity?
Yes, before your first payout. Identity and payout verification is a legal requirement for handling creator earnings, and it also stops anyone else from claiming your balance.
What is the minimum price for a pay-per-view link?
Five dollars. The floor exists because payment processing costs make smaller amounts uneconomic for both you and the platform.
Can I use Velvet alongside other platforms?
Yes. Nothing about Velvet requires exclusivity. Many creators use their Velvet page as the destination they send traffic to, while keeping their audience on the social platforms where they already post.
Can an agency or a closer manage my account for me?
Yes, with scoped permissions. Closers can reply and sell pay-per-view content in assigned conversations only, and cannot change prices, payout details or channel connections. Agencies get their own workspace with per-creator access.
What happens to my content if I close my account?
Your content stays yours. Closing your account removes your public page and stops new sales; your files are not licensed to Velvet and are not reused.
Can a fan subscribe and also buy a pay-per-view link?
Yes, and this is the common case. A subscription covers your ongoing content while a pay-per-view link sells a specific bundle to anyone, subscriber or not, without them leaving your page.
