Every way you earn
Built around how OnlyFans creators actually get paid.
Every income type gets its own record — with the date, source, gross, fees, currency, and CAD equivalent. So when tax time comes, your accountant gets a summary, not a scavenger hunt.
Subscriptions
Monthly subscriptions across tiers — gross, platform fees, and net deposit.
PPV messages & DMs
Pay-per-view unlocks and DM purchases tracked separately from monthly subs.
Tips
One-off tips on posts and live streams — keep the period and net payout.
Referral revenue
Platform referral programs paying a share of referred creators' earnings.
Brand & collab deals
Off-platform partnerships, co-collabs, and personalized content arrangements.
Gifts from brands or fans
PR products, wishlist purchases, and conditional gifts — keep brand, value, and content-required notes.
Where it gets messy
The recordkeeping problems OnlyFans creators actually hit.
USD payouts from US/UK platforms.
Most platforms pay USD. Cadence saves the period, gross, fees, and CAD equivalent on the day paid.
Recordkeeping needs to stay non-sensitive.
Cadence stores amounts, dates, sources, and notes — not subscriber identities or content. You keep the ledger; the platform keeps the rest.
GST/HST gets confusing fast.
Subs are typically processed by the platform, but your total taxable revenue still affects your $30K threshold. Cadence tracks the rolling total so you know when to talk to your accountant.
The CRA is paying attention.
Subscription platforms now report Canadian creators under Part XX digital platform reporting. A clean ledger with payout statements is the easiest defense.
One calm place for the business side.
Cadence is not a content tool, a media kit, or accounting software. It is the layer underneath OnlyFans creators' work that keeps the record clean.
One ledger across every platform
Payouts, brand deals, gifted products, affiliate income — all in one place, not five spreadsheets.
GST/HST threshold tracker
Rolling 12-month view of your total taxable creator revenue against the $30,000 small-supplier threshold.
Records that hold up to review
Receipts, contracts, screenshots, and notes saved with each entry. The CRA's Part XX rules mean creator income gets reported — clean records are the easiest defense.
Accountant-ready export
Income by type, brand deal summary, gifted product schedule, expense summary, GST/HST summary, and CSV. Send it to your accountant in one file.

FAQ
Questions OnlyFans creators ask.
Cadence helps you keep records — it is not tax advice. Always confirm with your accountant.
Is OnlyFans income taxable in Canada?
Generally yes — OnlyFans, Fansly and similar subscription-platform earnings are self-employment income reported on a T2125 with your T1. The platform typically does not issue a Canadian tax slip; you report from payout statements and bank deposits.
Do I have to charge GST/HST on subs?
Subscriptions are usually billed and processed by the platform, not by you, so GST/HST collection may be handled platform-side. But your total taxable creator revenue still counts toward the $30,000 rolling threshold. Your accountant can confirm how it applies to your facts.
Will the CRA find out I earn on a subscription platform?
Increasingly, yes. Under the new Part XX digital platform reporting rules, many subscription platforms now report Canadian creator earnings to the CRA directly. A clean ledger and your own payout records are the easiest way to match.
What records should I keep?
Monthly platform statements, bank deposit records, brand deal contracts, gifted product notes, and a year-end summary. Cadence keeps amounts, dates, and notes — never subscriber identities or content.
Can I write off my equipment and studio?
Cameras, lighting, props, wardrobe used for content, editing software, and a business-use portion of your home are generally deductible. Keep receipts and notes on the business use.
