About Form 1099-NEC
Fansly creators earning more than $600 in annual revenue will receive a Form 1099-NEC.
This form reports total gross earnings through payment card and third-party network transactions.
Forms are issued electronically each year.
If you earned more than $600 in 2025 and have not received your 1099-NEC after January 31, contact [email protected] for assistance.
Filing Your Taxes
Even if you earned a small amount, you must still report your income.
Report all Fansly earnings to the appropriate tax authorities.
Maintain your own records for tax reporting purposes, as Fansly does not store total annual earnings for creators.

You can deduct ordinary and necessary business expenses related to your content creation. Examples include:
Props, costumes, and equipment used for production
Internet and phone bills (proportionally used for business)
Editing software or subscriptions
