OnlyFans bios are short, so creators lean on abbreviations. Some describe how the page sells content, others describe the content itself. Here is what they mean, in plain words, grouped so you can find a term quickly.
Terms about how content is sold
| Term | Meaning |
|---|---|
| PPV | Pay-per-view. A post or message with its own price, unlocked separately from the subscription. |
| Wall / feed | The creator’s timeline. On a paid page it is what your subscription opens. |
| No PPV | The creator promises everything is on the wall and nothing is sold extra in messages. |
| VIP page | A second, usually paid, account with fuller content. The free account acts as a preview. |
| Bundle | Several months of subscription bought at once for a discount. |
| Free trial | A link that gives free access to a paid page for a set number of days. |
| Custom / customs | Content made to order for one fan, priced individually. See custom videos. |
| Tip menu | A price list for specific requests, usually pinned on the wall. |
| DM | Direct message. |
"No PPV" pages are popular with fans who want a fixed monthly cost. If you see a low subscription price and a small archive, expect the opposite model, with most content sold in messages. Our free pages guide explains that model in detail.
Terms about the type of content
| Term | Meaning |
|---|---|
| POV | Point of view. Filmed so the viewer feels they are in the scene. POV creators. |
| JOI | Jerk-off instruction. The creator talks the viewer through it, step by step. JOI creators. |
| CEI | A more extreme form of instruction video, a fetish niche. It is usually listed alongside JOI. |
| GFE | Girlfriend experience. Affectionate, personal content and regular chat, as if dating. GFE creators. |
| B/G, G/G | Boy/girl and girl/girl, meaning content with a partner rather than solo. B/G and G/G creators. |
| Solo | The creator alone on camera. Solo creators. |
| Sexting | Explicit chat, sometimes with photos or voice notes, often paid per session. Sexting creators. |
| Dick rating | The fan sends a photo and the creator replies with a rating, written or on video. Dick rating. |
| Fetish / kink | Content built around a specific interest such as feet, latex or domination. Fetish creators. |
| Amateur | Home-made style, phone cameras, no studio. Amateur creators. |

Questions people ask
What does PPV mean on OnlyFans?
Pay-per-view: a post or message with its own price that you unlock separately from the subscription.
What is the difference between GFE and sexting?
Sexting is explicit chat, usually paid per session. GFE is a broader, ongoing style: friendly, personal messages and content that feels like a relationship.
What does "no PPV" mean?
The creator says everything is posted on the wall and nothing is sold extra in messages, so the subscription is the only cost.
What is a VIP page?
A second account with fuller content, usually paid. The creator’s free account is then used for previews and announcements.
