Fansly is a hotbed for adult content creators. It provides an easy way to make money by uploading NSFW videos. However, like any other registered business, Fansly tightly enforces its Terms of Services. These are legal regulations that creators and users are bound to follow when using the platform to create or consume content.
A Fansly creator may receive an account termination or suspension when they violate the Terms of Services of Fansly. I have seen numerous complaints on Reddit from Fansly content creators regarding accounts getting suspended or closed. In most cases, users are not tech-savvy and have no idea why they got banned.
This guide explains the primary reasons that may lead to getting a Fanlsy account suspended and what one should do to resolve the matter to get their account back.
Why do Fansly Bans an Account?
Fansly is owned by Select Media LLC, a subsidiary of the Jim Pattison group. It is a digital product that is a business instrument for the company that owns and manages it. To use a product there are rules which are described in the Terms of Services.
It is simple to understand that violating specific regulations set by Fansly can invite a permanent or temporary ban on an account. Let us understand those clauses from the Terms of Service to which the Fansly creators must adhere.
Using Minors in the Content
If Fansly is convinced that in your video you have depicted or used performers who are minors, it will enforce a ban immediately. A minor is an individual who is less than 18 years old(as per the US Laws).
To appeal against the ban, you have to provide Fansly with proper legal documents to prove that the other performers deemed as minors are adults. Also, you have to get a consent letter from the concerned co-performers about their claim of age and legality to appear in the video.
Uploading Videos Depicting Inappropriate Content
It may sound ironic that on a site like Fansly, where NSFW and nudity are displayed openly, what could constitute inappropriate content?
NSFW videos with violence, gore, blood, physical abuse, child abuse, and urination, are not allowed on Fansly. Nudity without any graphic detail is allowed. The adult videos are meant to be entertaining and not to cause some alert or chaos among the users.
The Policy of No Child Abuse
You will invite an instant ban if your content is found or reported to depict abuse of one or more children. Children are included under the minors and using or abusing them is an illegal act in almost all regions including the US where Fansly operates.
Sex Trafficking is not Allowed
If you are using models/performers in your Fansly video who you have procured through the flesh trade, it accounts for a serious offense. A ban of a permanent nature may be enforced along with legal proceedings against you when the guilt is proven.
Even if the whole fiasco has happened without your due diligence, still being part of the video as a creator, you will be liable as an offender with others involved in the trafficking.
Scam Chargebacks
If an account is found to be indulged in intentional chargebacks on purchases on Fansly, the platform may immediately ban the concerned account.
Some individuals use stolen credit cards to make purchases on Fansly. If the guilt is proven, accounts associated with the fraud will be banned from using Fansly.
Selling, Renting, or Transferring the Account is Prohibited
When you create an account, it belongs to you only for creating and sharing videos on Fansly. You cannot rent, sell, or transfer the account to someone else. This is against the terms of use stated by Fansly. If someone else is using your Fansly account, it will be promptly banned.
Violation of Rules Set for Creating Content with a Co-Creator
Working with a co-creator to produce a video on Fansly is allowed. However, your co-creator must be tagged in your video and verified to be of legal age to take part in NSFW videos.
If it is found that your co-creator is a minor and the video act presents any form of abuse, or violent acts there is a high chance of your account receiving a suspension.
Impersonating Fansly Through Ad Services
Using Google ads, Facebook ads, or any other ad services to impersonate Fansly or its representative to sell any other material is marked as a violation of the Terms of Services of Fansly. Any account involved in such practices will be duly banned.
Collecting Personal Details of Other Users
Using any means to farm the data of other creators and users of Fansly when noticed can lead to a ban on the suspected account.
If you are using the platform to create content, stick to the terms of its usage and focus solely on content creation. Involving in any other shady business will only invite legal troubles and an eventual ban.
Depiction of Hatred
Promoting hatred, hate speech, racist depiction, abusive speech towards any religion, and blasphemous content, can get you banned on Fansly. If you receive a ban on these grounds, appeal for the same, remove the derogatory content from your account and Fansly may lift the ban.
NOTE: Placing or revoking a ban of any nature on an account is solely the discretion of Fansly.
Using any form of Automation on Fansly
Fansly prefers its users(creators) to generate viewership and revenue genuinely and organically. If the creator is found using any form of automation, script, or plugin to farm views or generate revenues it may result in account suspension.
Even using automation or hacking to affect any other creator’s profile or bypass any restriction or feature of Fansly will not be tolerated and a ban will be effected.
NOTE: Avoid using any ad-blockers on Fansly. Ding so may prohibit you from using the platform.
These are some of the primary reasons which when violated call for an instant ban of temporary or permanent nature on Fansly.
