Columbus, Ohio is making waves on the adult subscription platform OnlyFans with a staggering $11 million in spending reported for 2025. This eye-opening figure was brought to light by OnlyGuider, a site dedicated to tracking OnlyFans revenue. However, it seems Columbus is more of a spending hub rather than an earning one, as local creators only managed to rake in about $4.3 million. This leaves a hefty portion of Columbus cash making its way to creators elsewhere.
“Columbus, while a big spender on OnlyFans, is not seeing as much revenue return to local creators compared to other cities,” the report reveals.
Ohio as a whole ranks 14th in the nation in terms of OnlyFans spending per capita. This translates to roughly $84,461 spent per 10,000 residents, adding up to a whopping $100 million annually across the state. When diving into city-specific data, Columbus finds itself outpaced by fellow Ohio cities like Cleveland and Cincinnati. Cleveland residents spend about $303,000 per 10,000 people, earning it a sixth place on the national ranking. Meanwhile, Cincinnati is not far behind, sitting in 11th place with $256,815 per 10,000 residents.
On a broader scale, Atlanta has claimed the top spot for per-capita spending on OnlyFans, closely followed by Orlando. Columbus' spending, while significant, does not quite reach the levels seen in these bustling hubs. The data highlights that Columbus operates primarily as a consumer market, with the majority of its OnlyFans dollars supporting creators in other parts of the country. This trend reflects broader economic patterns where certain regions act as financial supporters of digital content without reaping equivalent economic rewards locally.
