Why should you use Housefly ?
No KYC! We don’t ask creators to provide tax information, bank account details, or verify personal information and residency. All you need to do is create a free account by connecting your digital wallet and you can immediately start making money.
No Middleman
Our decentralized, privacy-preserving technology enables users to make wallet-to-wallet payments directly to creators without a centralized authority. Withheld payouts, suspended payments and blocked accounts are a thing of the past.
No Censorship
No bank, payment processor or financial institution can shape our content policy or blackmail us to suspend creators because we are disconnected from the traditional financial system. You can post any content as long as it does not violate any law, intellectual property, contract or other third-party right. That's it.
Instant Payouts
You receive subscriptions, tips and pay-to-view payments directly in your digital wallet in seconds. Unlike with other platforms, you will never wait for days to receive your money, or meet a minimum payout threshold to request for a payment from the platform.
Maximize Your Earnings
1.1 in 10 internet users globally now own cryptocurrency, out of which 34.43% would pay for online content and services in Polygon MATIC, particularly when it comes to NSFW content. Survey results here. By offering your content and services on Housefly.io in addition to Patreon or other mainstream monetization platforms, you can tap into millions of new users who value their anonymity and prefer to pay in crypto rather than swiping their credit cards.
Special 7.5% Take Rate
We have an industry leading 10% platform take rate without NO hidden fees or withdrawal charges typical for other platforms. But, VAM Creators can now claim an exclusive take rate of 7.5% for a limited time. To claim the VAM community special rate, make sure you sign up through the link below.

If you are in the US, it may be wise to switch to the "Escrow" payout mode vs the "Direct" option in your profile settings. You have to report every single crypto transaction to the IRS when you declare your income. If you use Escrow, you can then just pay yourself out in less frequent intervals, similar to how Patreon does it. This in turn is less work overall.
Split pay-to-view content earnings between multiple contributors
On Housefly, you can split the earnings from a pay-to-view content payment between up to 5 wallets. This way you can run JVs and collaborate with other creators to develop assets without worrying about payments. It's all decentralized, and any time a user pays to unlock a "pay-to-view" asset every creator instantly gets his share of the pie directly in their digital wallet.
Multiple Payment Currencies
At present, you can chose between Polygon MATIC and USDT Tether to receive payouts. We will be adding more ERC20 tokens in the future. If you have some immediate request of suggestion please give us a shout.
Other Tips & Tricks
- When creating gated content (Subscription based or pay-to-view) activate "Show preview" to display the featured image and 155 characters text preview. This will improve your conversion rate.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
If you are adding a download link make sure it is not included in the first 155 characters when preview is ON.
If you don't chose a featured image a default gray color placeholder will be displayed in your post, so make sure you always chose a featured image. - You can embed videos from 3rd party services such as YouTube & Video but also use animated GIFs to make your content more appealing.
- We have an upload limit of 5mb per image
- You can add unlimited size animated GIFs via a URL.
- Always add TAGS to your posts so users can search and find your content on Housefly.
- When you publish NSFW content, make sure you flag it and activate the "NSFW content" toggle ON, so it is blurred for users that have this visibility setting.
- Add your Housefly profile link to your Twitter, Instagram or YouTube profiles as an alternative to Patreon so users know they can support you and pay for your assets in crypto.

This is a research for the U.S. market we did almost 1 year ago:
https://bit.ly/FiatVsCryptoSurvey
The results show there's a good number of crypto users ready to pay with crypto rather than swiping a card.
You should expect between 10 - 15% of your users to pay in crypto and that number goes up to 15 - 20% for Asian audience.
You should look at Housefly as an alternative distribution channel that will improve your profit margin, and the userbase will just grow moving forward.
