Fanfix is a California-based social media marketing platform that hosts a subscription business model for content creators.
History and operations
[edit]Fanfix was founded in December 2020 by college students Harry Gestetner, Simon Pompan and was later joined by Cameron Dallas as cofounder.[3] Initial funding was provided by the venture capital firm Antler.[4] Fanfix allows creators to place posts, videos and messages behind a paywall. Creators set monthly subscription prices, and the platform also offers paid direct messaging features.[5]
Digital Trends describes Fanfix as a rival to Patreon.[6] Fanfix users pay a subscription fee to the platform to access blog posts, videos, and message-boards made by content creators.[6] As of 2023, the platform keeps 20% of subscription fees, with the remainder going to creators, which is higher than Pateron's 5%-12% share.[3][6] The platform does not allow nudity.[7] As of November 2022, the site had 9.6 million users.[8]
In July 2022 Fanfix was acquired by SuperOrdinary, a Los Angeles, California–based brand platform. In November 2022, it launched SuperLink, a link-in-bio service intended to compete with Linktree.[8] Fanfix launched in the Middle East in March 2023.[9]
In August 2025, Fanfix acquired Sunroom, a women-focused creator monetization platform. Sunroom was merged into Fanfix.[10]
