Lucy Banks is a a rising independent content creator in Australia, who never saw herself as an online entertainer

Lucy Banks left her marriage and job security in the banking industry in favour of becoming a model on OnlyFans.

Nearly three years later, she has achieved staggering success on the adult social platform.

“I had these two little kids that needed a mum at home and I didn’t want to put them in after school care, I wanted to be at home with them so that really propelled me,” she told TICKER NEWS.

Banks currently boasts more than 3,700 subscribers and earnings of up to $2,500 per day. The adult entertainer admits there are quiet times, but says she can make upwards of $60,0000 a month.

“It’s a direct correlation of how much time I put into it, and how much effort I put into it as to how much I make,” she says.

The OnlyFans service has more than 50 million registered users and more than 1 million content creators.

Banks says her day starts off with school drop-offs, before she comes home and attends to requests from her ‘fans’, and makes videos.

“I own this house and I’m about to build another one. My kids go to private schools, and after this interview, I’m actually going to take one of them to a medical appointment. I can do that because I do OnlyFans.”

The model believes being genuine is the key to long-term success on the platform. She says most of the feedback has been positive.

“It’s really cool to have people at the coffee shop say ‘hey, I know you!’ It’s been really positive, which I think is really refreshing.”

How did OnlyFans come alive?

OnlyFans was launched five years ago in Britain but the company is not publicly traded on any global stock exchange.

“OnlyFans is the perfect way to enhance your engagement with your fanbase, boost your social media experience and monetise your content,” the company says.

Last year, the platform banned sexual content because of requests from companies who handle the financial transactions.

However, the policy was reversed after outrage from fans and creators. OnlyFans also banned the accounts of Russian creators after the nation’s troops invaded Ukraine in February.
