OnlyFans Tip Menu: Template, 40 Ideas and How to Price It

A tip menu is a short price list of extras a fan can get by tipping a fixed amount: a rating, a voice note, their name in a video, a custom photo. It turns the tip button, which most fans never touch on their own, into a menu with prices on it.

Below is a template you can copy, 40 ideas sorted by what they cost you to deliver, a pricing method that uses your own numbers instead of a chart, and the mistakes that make menus sit unused. If you want the list built for you, the free tip menu generator writes one from your niche and price level.

What a tip menu does that PPV does not

PPV sells content you have already made: a fan pays, a locked file opens. A tip menu sells small things that do not exist yet, mostly attention: a reply in your voice, a rating, a shout-out, a photo in the outfit they asked for. The fan tips the amount next to the item, you deliver in the chat.

That makes it the simplest upsell on the platform. It needs no vault, no editing and no preview. On the accounts we manage, roughly 90% of net revenue comes from messages, and the menu is one of the reasons: it gives a fan who has already bought a PPV a reason to tip again, and it gives a fan who has never spent a cheap first step. OnlyFans caps how much a single tip can be, so the menu lives below that cap by design; the current limit is shown in your account.

The template

A menu that works has three tiers, six to ten items, one line each, and prices that end in round numbers. Here is the structure, with example items and prices written for this article; swap in your own.

Three things in that layout are doing work. The first tier starts at the price of a coffee, so a fan can try the menu without thinking. The last item in each tier is the anchor: it makes the one before it look reasonable. And the delivery line at the bottom is a promise you can keep, which is what turns a one-time tipper into a regular.

40 tip menu ideas, by what they cost you

Sorted by effort, because that is what should set the price. The cheap-to-deliver items go at the top of the menu; the ones that take a shoot go at the bottom.

Attention (seconds to deliver). Rate a photo they send. A voice note saying their name. A good morning text. A good night text. A reply to one question about you. A compliment in your own words. A thank-you video message, ten seconds. A spoken happy birthday. A spoken answer to one question about me. Pick the song for your next post.

Small content (minutes). One extra photo from today’s set. The outtake they ask about. A mirror selfie in the outfit they choose from your feed. A behind-the-scenes clip from the last shoot. A photo holding a sign with their name. A screenshot of your current playlist. The unposted angle from a set they bought. A photo of what you are wearing right now. A 15-second video answering their question. The first look at tomorrow’s post, tonight.

Made for them (a short shoot). A three-photo set in their outfit choice. A one-minute video with their name. A video reacting to a photo they send. A set in a colour they pick. A clip recorded at a place they choose from your usual spots. A “day in my life” voice diary. A handwritten note, photographed. A custom with details agreed first. A themed set from a list you offer. A short video script they suggest, within your limits.

Time (your hours). A 15-minute private chat. A 30-minute chat. A week of good morning and good night messages. A month of first replies within the hour. A weekly check-in voice note. A “tell me about your day” session. Priority replies for a week. A monthly favourites recap made for them. A quarterly custom at a locked-in price. An early-access slot for every new set.

Everything on that list is suggestive at most. What you put behind the higher tiers is up to you and your limits; the point of the structure is that a fan knows what he gets and you know what you have promised.

How to price it

Price from history, not from a chart. If you already have a page, your statements show what fans tip without being asked. The menu’s first tier should sit just above your typical unprompted tip, so the menu lifts the average rather than discounting it. Our pricing guide walks through the same logic for subscriptions and PPV.

• Keep three price levels in your head: starter, established, premium. A page with a few hundred fans and no buying history starts low and raises prices as the first items sell out of patience, not generosity. A page with regulars can price the same items at roughly double. A page with a long waiting list for customs prices to limit demand.
• Never undercut your PPV. If a ten-photo set sells for $20 in your inbox, a three-photo custom cannot be $10. The menu sits beside PPV, not under it.
• Put one anchor in each tier. The most expensive item is bought least and makes everything above it in the list look fair. Keep it.
• Round numbers, no cents. $25, not $24.99. A tip menu is a conversation, and nobody says twenty-four ninety-nine in a conversation.
• Change prices in writing. When you raise them, repost the menu and say so. Fans who tipped the old price last week and see a new one without warning stop trusting the list.

To test a price against the number of fans who might take it, the PPV price calculator works for menu items too: a $10 item that one fan in fifty takes is worth more than a $40 item one in five hundred takes.

Where to put it

A menu nobody sees earns nothing, and most menus are buried. Four places, in order of how often they work:

• Pinned post. The first thing a new subscriber sees after the welcome message. Keep it as an image or a short text post, not a wall of emoji.
• Welcome message. The quick tier only, three lines, with “reply with the number”. The full menu is too much for a first message.
• In the chat, when it fits. A fan asks whether you do voice notes; the answer is yes, here is the menu, this one is $8. On managed accounts this is where most menu tips come from, because the chatter has the list open beside the conversation. Our chatting scripts show how that reads.
• Mass message, once a month. A reminder that the menu exists, with one item highlighted, sent to fans who have tipped before. See mass messages for who should get it.

Mistakes that make menus sit unused

• Too long. Twenty items is a catalogue; nobody reads a catalogue in a DM. Six to ten, and rotate the rest in and out monthly.
• Too cheap at the top. A $3 first tier teaches fans that your attention costs $3. Start at $5 and go up when the first items sell every day.
• No delivery time. A fan who tips $40 and hears nothing for two days does not tip again. Put the delivery promise on the menu and keep it.
• Items you do not want to deliver. If an item makes you wince, it does not belong on the list, however well it sells. The menu is a promise; break it once and the rest stops working.
• Vague names. “Special surprise $30” sells nothing. “Three-photo set in the outfit you pick, $25” sells.
• Never mentioning it. The pinned post is not the sales pitch. The chat is.

Doing this with a chat team

A tip menu is a chatting tool more than a content tool: the money arrives when someone in the chat offers the right item to the right fan at the right moment, and then delivers it. On managed accounts the menu is part of the chatter briefing, next to the list of what sells in messages and the limits you set, so every shift sells from the same list and every promise is tracked to delivery.

If you would rather have that handled, our chat-only plan runs the inbox, menu included, at 25 to 30% of message and tip earnings after platform fees. If you want the whole page run, apply and a manager replies within 4 hours.
