What is BentBox?

A marketplace for creators, built around collectors

BentBox is a curated content marketplace where independent creators sell Boxes — collections of photos, optionally with a video — along with individual videos, to fans and collectors. Creators set their own price and receive all of it; BentBox's fee is paid by the buyer on top. Every creator is identity-verified, keeps full ownership of their work, and gets the same visibility as everyone else, because public pages simply show the newest work first.

Why creators choose BentBox

Fair economics, real fans, no noise

Ten years of running BentBox taught us that creators do best when the platform gets out of the way. Here is what that looks like in practice.

Keep 100% of your price

You set the price and that is exactly what you earn. BentBox's fee is added on top and paid by the buyer, so nothing is ever deducted from your sales.

No algorithm, no paid placement

Public pages show the newest work first. BentBox promotes no one, so your results come from your work and your fans, not from gaming a feed.

Built for collectors

Fans buy Boxes and keep them in a private library. It is a collector's mindset, closer to buying a print than scrolling an endless feed.

Verified creators

Every seller completes identity verification with ProntoID before publishing, which protects creators, buyers and the people in the work.

Your rights stay yours

Creators transfer no rights to BentBox. When we feature work on our own social channels, the creator is always credited.

Serious creator tools

Promo codes, collections, revenue sharing with models, geo-blocking, mass email to fans, paid messages, tips and unlimited uploads.

How pricing works

Your price is your payout

You decide what a Box is worth. The buyer pays your price plus BentBox's fee — 35% of the final sale price, with a $3 minimum for Boxes under 100MB and $5 above that. Nothing is taken from your side.

You set$10.00
Buyer pays$15.38
You receive$10.00

Thanks to our supporters we've been able to shoot more sets and publish new content consistently — with the freedom to post both photos and videos in the same place.
FAQ

Questions creators ask us

What is BentBox?

BentBox is a curated content marketplace, founded in 2015, where photographers, models, studios and artists sell collections of photos and videos called Boxes, as well as individual videos, directly to fans and collectors.

How much does BentBox charge creators?

Nothing is deducted from a Box sale. Creators keep 100% of the price they set. BentBox's fee is paid by the buyer on top of that price: 35% of the final sale price, with a minimum of $3 for Boxes under 100MB and $5 for larger Boxes. For example, a Box priced at $10.00 costs the buyer $15.38 and the creator receives the full $10.00.

Do fans need a subscription to buy content?

No. Fans buy individual Boxes and videos and keep them in their library. Creators who want recurring income can also run an optional Club, which is a subscription community on BentBox.

Is BentBox safe for work?

BentBox has two sides. Folio is the all-audiences photography showcase with no mature content and no age check. The main BentBox marketplace is 18+ and visitors verify their age before entering. Public cover images are always glamour or artistic; explicit material is only allowed inside a Box, must be consensual and must be covered by a release form.

How are creators verified?

Every creator completes identity verification with ProntoID, a Swiss identity platform, before they can upload. It takes about five minutes with a government ID and a selfie. BentBox only receives the verification result, never the documents.

How and when are creators paid?

Payouts are made monthly by bank transfer, Paxum, Yoursafe, PayPal or gift card.

Does BentBox own the content creators upload?

No. Creators transfer no rights to BentBox. If BentBox shares a creator's work on its own social media, the creator is always credited.

Does BentBox use an algorithm to rank creators?

No. Public pages list the newest work first and BentBox sells no paid placement, so every verified creator gets the same visibility when they publish.
