Short answer
An OnlyFans tip menu is a short list of what a fan gets for a given tip amount, such as a personal voice note, a custom request or a vote on your next post. Build it from a few clear items, price each one from your own effort and past tips, show it where fans already read, and keep every offer inside OnlyFans rules. Review it every month against what fans actually bought.
Key points
- A tip menu turns a vague wish to tip into a clear choice with a clear result.
- Keep it short: five to eight items beat a long list nobody reads.
- Set prices from your own effort and your own tip history, not from a screenshot of someone else's menu.
- Every item must be something you or your team can deliver on time and inside OnlyFans rules.
What a tip menu is and why it works
A tip menu is a list that connects a tip amount to a specific thing a fan receives in return. Tips are voluntary payments, and many fans want to tip but do not know how much or what to ask for. The menu removes that guesswork. It gives the fan a concrete option, so the step from wanting to tip to actually tipping becomes smaller.
A menu is not a replacement for paid messages. PPV sells a piece of content you have already made, while a tip menu sells attention and small personalised extras. Both can live on the same page, and a good conversation often leads from one to the other. Think of the menu as a set of standing offers that make your page easier to buy from.
What to put on it
Start with things that cost you little time but feel personal to the fan. Keep the list short, name each item in plain words and say exactly what the fan receives and when. Group items by effort so the menu is easy to scan. Common categories look like this.
Leave out anything you do not want to do repeatedly. If an item sells well, you will deliver it many times, so only list what you are happy to repeat.
- Quick personal touches: a named shoutout in a post, a short voice note or a reply to a question the fan sends.
- Choices: let the fan vote on the theme of your next set or pick between two options for a post.
- Custom requests: a clearly described personalised piece with a stated delivery window.
- Recognition: a place on a thank-you post or a pinned note for your top supporters.
- Longer conversations: a set time of attention in the chat, delivered by you or by an agreed team member.
How to set prices without copying anyone
There is no price that is right for every creator, and copying another menu rarely works because audiences, niches and effort differ. Instead, use three inputs: how long the item takes you, how much your fans have tipped before, and how often you want to deliver it. Your own tip history is the best guide you have, and you can read it in your OnlyFans statistics or in your account's earnings export.
Group items into tiers and decide each tier's logic first, then put your own numbers in. Change one price at a time and wait long enough to see what fans do before changing another.
| Tier | Typical item | How to price it |
|---|---|---|
| Small | Quick reply or named shoutout | A small amount you are happy to receive many times a week. |
| Medium | Voice note or a vote on your next set | Enough to be worth a few minutes of your time, based on your past tips. |
| Large | Custom request with a delivery window | Enough to pay for the real hours it takes, plus the platform fee and any chatter share. |
Set the actual amounts from your own tip history and costs. We do not give recommended prices because they depend on your audience.
Where to show it and how chatters use it
A menu nobody sees earns nothing. Pin it to your profile feed, include it in your welcome message and keep a shortened version ready to send in chat when a fan asks what they can get. Update the pinned post whenever prices or items change, so fans never see an old version.
If a team runs the account, the menu becomes part of the playbook. Chatters should know every item, its delivery time and who delivers it, and they should never promise something that is not on the list. In FansTracker you can keep what each fan tipped for in their notes in the shared inbox, so the next person on shift sees the history. Pair this with the guide on chatting scripts so the menu is offered in a natural way and never pushed.
Rules and risks
Every item on your menu must follow the OnlyFans Terms of Service and Acceptable Use Policy, which change from time to time, so read the current versions before publishing. Do not offer anything that moves the relationship or the payment off the platform, and do not offer anything the rules prohibit. If you are unsure whether an item is allowed, leave it out.
Protect fans and yourself from disappointment. Describe each item honestly, deliver on the date you state and keep a record of what was requested. Late or missing deliveries lead to complaints and refund requests, which also affect how fans see your page. Our guide on chargebacks explains how those disputes work.
How to measure and update your menu
Review the menu once a month. Look at which items received tips, which received none and which took far more time than their price justified. Remove items nobody picks, keep the ones that sell, and replace the weakest with one new idea at a time. Compare tip income in the weeks before and after a change, remembering that fan numbers and promotions also move your results.
Track delivery as well as income. An item that sells but takes a long time to fulfil may cost you more than it earns. Note the hours spent, and compare tips received against the time and the platform fee. FansTracker does not yet sync earnings automatically, since earnings sync is in development, so today you can export fan lists and keep your own tip log in a spreadsheet.
Step by step
- List what you can deliver. Write down five to eight small, personal items you are happy to repeat and that fit OnlyFans rules.
- Group them into tiers. Sort items by effort into small, medium and large, and describe exactly what the fan receives and when.
- Set prices from your own data. Check your tip history and your time, set one price per item and leave room to adjust later.
- Publish it where fans read. Pin the menu, add it to the welcome message and brief the chatters on every item and delivery time.
- Deliver and log every tip. Fulfil each request on the stated date and note who tipped for what in the fan's notes.
- Review once a month. Remove items nobody picks, check hours against income and change one price or item at a time.
