What is BentBox?
BentBox is a marketplace where photographers and models sell collections of photos and videos directly to buyers. You set the price and you receive all of it. BentBox is paid separately, by the buyer, through a small fixed commission added on top of your price.
How a BentBox sale is split
You list a box at
$12
You receive
$12
100% of your price
The buyer pays
$15
$3 commission added on top
The commission is a fixed amount, not a percentage: $3 for a box under 100 MB and $5 from 100 MB up. It is never deducted from what you earn.

Selling on BentBox, start to finish
Four steps between opening an account and your first payout.
-
Create your free account
Signing up takes a couple of minutes and needs no card details. Pick a username — that becomes your public BentBox address.
-
Verify your identity (optional)
A one-off ProntoID check adds the Model Verified badge to your profile. Buyers can then see that a real, age-verified person is behind the content.
-
Build a box and set your price
A box is a collection of photos or videos sold as one purchase. Upload your files, write a description and name your price — there is no cap and no tier to fit into.
-
Share your link and get paid
Every box gets its own page you can share anywhere. Sales are added to your balance and paid out monthly by your chosen method.
What you can sell and run
One-off purchases, recurring subscriptions, or both from the same profile.
Standalone videos
List a single clip on its own page with its own price, separate from your boxes.
Clubs
Run a paid community on your own BentBox subdomain, with recurring subscriptions instead of one-off sales.
Timed offers
Schedule a discount or a limited-run box in advance. Pricing reverts on its own when the window closes.
Sales figures
See views, purchases and earnings per box, so you can tell which sets are worth reshooting.
Compliance handled
Age verification, 2257 record-keeping and ProntoTag consent records are built into the upload flow rather than left to you.
How BentBox compares
The column on the right describes what is common across creator platforms generally, not any single competitor.
| BentBox | Typical creator platform | |
|---|---|---|
| What you receive on a $20 sale | The full $20 | Around $16 — a 20% cut is typical, and some take more |
| Who pays the platform | The buyer, as a fixed fee on top of your price | You, as a percentage of every sale |
| Monthly fee to sell | None | Often a subscription, charged whether you sell or not |
| Who sets the price | You, per box, with no cap | Often restricted to fixed tiers |
| Identity verification | Optional ProntoID check, shown to buyers as a badge | Frequently none, so buyers cannot tell |
| 2257 records and consent | Managed inside the platform | Usually your paperwork to keep |
| Payout methods | Bank transfer, Paxum, Yoursafe, PayPal or gift card | Commonly a single processor |
Verification and compliance
Buyers cannot inspect a creator's paperwork, so BentBox does it once and shows the result. Identity checks run through ProntoID, a separate verification service operated by Brooks & Keitt Sàrl in Switzerland. BentBox stores the outcome of a check and the audit trail; the identity documents themselves stay with ProntoID.
Verification is optional for creators, but a Model Verified badge tells a buyer that a real, age-verified person is behind the set.

Common questions
BentBox is a content marketplace, launched in 2015 and operated by Haas & Reed B.V. in Utrecht, the Netherlands. Photographers and models sell boxes — collections of photos and videos — directly to buyers. Creators keep 100% of the price they set, and BentBox is paid by the buyer through a fixed commission added on top.
The commission is added on top of your price and paid by the buyer, never deducted from your earnings. It is a fixed amount rather than a percentage: $3 for a box under 100 MB and $5 for a box of 100 MB or more. Set a box at $12 and you receive $12; the buyer pays $15.
Nothing. Creating an account, listing boxes and running a profile on BentBox are free. There is no monthly subscription, no listing fee and no cut taken from your sale price.
BentBox pays creators monthly. You choose your method in your account settings: bank transfer, Paxum, Yoursafe, PayPal or a gift card. A minimum payout threshold applies and can vary by method — your dashboard shows the current figure for the method you selected.
Verification is optional. Completing a ProntoID identity check adds a Model Verified badge to your profile, which tells buyers that an age-verified person stands behind the content. Verified creators generally convert better, but you can list without it.
Photos and videos, sold as boxes, as standalone video listings, or through a paid club subscription. Everything must comply with the BentBox Terms of Service and applicable law. The platform handles 2257 record-keeping and consent documentation as part of the upload process.
Anyone with a verified account can buy. The buyer pays your listed price plus the fixed BentBox commission — $3 for boxes under 100 MB, $5 from 100 MB up — and gets immediate access to the files after purchase.
BentBox is operated by Haas & Reed B.V., a company based in Utrecht, the Netherlands, and has been running since 2015. Identity verification is handled by ProntoID, a separate service operated by Brooks & Keitt Sàrl in Switzerland.
