How much to charge for a phone call
There is no publishable market rate for paid phone calls. Here is what is actually documented — platform per-minute ranges, dedicated phone-line economics — and how to price from it.
Some links here are referral links: if you sign up we may earn a commission from the platform, at no extra cost to you. It does not change the ranking — here is how we rank.
This is the page where we tell you we could not find a number. Every guide we checked prices video calls and sexting; none gives a market rate for a live audio call from a creator on one of these platforms. Rather than average the video-call figures down and present it as data, we are showing you what is documented and letting you price from it.
What is documented is useful. LoyalFans, the only one of the four with a native call feature, reportedly lets you set $1–$30 a minute for audio as well as video. Dedicated phone lines exist and are cheap to the caller; their operators keep two-thirds of a low rate. And every guide that prices video calls prices them at $3–$10 a minute, which is the ceiling an audio call is unlikely to exceed.
What creators charge
No publishable range
We could not find a source that gives a market rate for phone and audio calls, so this page does not carry one. Averaging the nearest figures and calling it data is exactly what our method says we will not do. What is documented is below.
What the published sources say
Every figure that fed the range above, in the source's own units, so you can see the spread rather than take our word for the summary. Agency guides are labelled as such: they describe managed creators with large audiences and tend to run high.
| Source | Figure | Covers | Dated |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sales Hacking — complete guide to LoyalFans | $1–$30 per minute, set by the creator | LoyalFans' One on One range for private calls, as reported by a third party. A platform limit, not a market rate | 2026 |
| Aruna Talent — custom content pricing | Voice notes $5–$15 each | Recorded audio, not live calls | 2026-03-04 |
| Outseeker — what paid sexting actually pays | Arousr voice calls about $0.50 per minute to the creator; NiteFlirt creators keep roughly 65–70% of what they charge | Dedicated phone and chat lines, for comparison. Rates on those platforms are set by the operator | 2026 |
| SirenCY — OnlyFans pricing strategy 2026 | $3–$10 per minute | For video calls, not audio. The nearest published benchmark | 2026-04-02 |
What each platform lets you charge
The floor and cap each platform sets on the mechanism you would use to sell phone and audio calls. Only Fanvue publishes its limits on a public page; the rest are marked Reported because they come from consistent third-party guides rather than the platform.
| Platform | How you sell it | Published limit |
|---|---|---|
| LoyalFans Built in | One on One: the same feature as video calls, with audio-only as an option, billed per minute at the rate you set. | $1–$30 Reported |
| Fanvue | Fanvue's "voice calls" are an AI clone of your voice talking to the fan, not you. There is no feature for a live call with the creator. | Not published Reported |
| Fansly | No one-to-one call feature. Payment is taken as a tip or locked message, and the call runs on an outside app. | $1–$500 Reported |
| OnlyFans | No two-way calls. OnlyFans Live is one-way; creators take payment as a PPV message or tip, then run the call on an outside app. | Up to $200 Reported |
- LoyalFans. LoyalFans' own help centre documents the One on One feature and that you set a per-minute rate; the $1–$30 range is from third-party reporting. Source , checked 2026-09-16.
- Fanvue. Fanvue publishes no limit for tips or pay-to-view messages, which is how a creator would take payment for an off-platform call. Source , checked 2026-09-16.
- Fansly. Fansly does not publish its limits on a public page; this range is the one third-party guides consistently give for locked media. Source , checked 2026-09-16.
- OnlyFans. A fan can tip at most $100 per transaction for their first four months on the platform, then $200. Source , checked 2026-09-16.
What moves the price
- Audio versus video. No source prices the two separately. Common sense and the dedicated phone lines both say audio sells below video.
- Billing method. LoyalFans bills as the call runs. Anywhere else the call is a pre-paid block taken as a tip, with the same overrun problem video calls have.
- Dedicated lines. Phone-line platforms set the caller price low and take 30–35% or more, so their per-minute figures are not comparable to a creator setting their own rate.
- Voice notes. Recorded audio at $5–$15 a note is priced, sells asynchronously and is the closest documented audio product.
What you keep
All four platforms take 20%, so the number that actually differs between two prices is what you earn per hour of your own time. Change the figures to match your menu.
| Platform | You keep | Per sale, after commission | Per hour of your time |
|---|---|---|---|
| LoyalFans | 80% | $2 | $144 |
| Fanvue | 80% 85% in a new creator's first 12 months | $2 | $144 |
| Fansly | 80% | $2 | $144 |
| OnlyFans | 80% | $2 | $144 |

Where to sell it: LoyalFans
It is the only one of the four where a phone call is a feature rather than a workaround: the fan requests the call, it is billed per minute as it runs, and the platform's payment protection covers it.
Because there is no reliable market rate, the ability to change your per-minute price and see what fans accept is worth more here than anywhere else on this site. LoyalFans is the only platform that lets you run that experiment natively.
LoyalFans
The smallest platform here and the only one whose referral commission is credibly lifetime — which changes the maths entirely if you refer creators who stay.
You keep 80% · phone and audio calls: $1–$30 · verified 2026-08-16.
Runner-up: OnlyFans
The same audience argument as video calls, with the same workaround: take the payment as a tip or PPV message, then call on an outside app. Nothing about audio makes that easier than video.
What to watch out for
- Do not price from the dedicated phone-line figures. Their operators earn cents a minute because the platform sets the caller price; you set yours.
- Do not take the call before the payment, on any platform without native billing.
- Tell us if you have a source. This page will carry a market range as soon as one can be cited, and we would rather publish yours than guess.

Common questions
How much should I charge per minute for a phone call?
We found no published market rate for creator phone calls, so we do not give one. LoyalFans reportedly lets creators set $1–$30 per minute for calls; guides price video calls at $3–$10 per minute; dedicated phone lines pay operators well under $1 per minute. Price below your video rate and above the phone lines, then adjust.
Which platform has built-in phone calls?
LoyalFans, through its One on One feature, which handles audio and video calls billed per minute. OnlyFans, Fanvue and Fansly have no live call with the creator; Fanvue offers AI voice calls, which are a voice clone rather than you.
Why not just use a phone-line site?
You can, and some creators do. They set a low caller price and keep roughly two-thirds of it, which suits volume rather than a small audience paying premium rates. This site does not review them.
