Local Expertise

Why Bristol Agencies Choose Specialist Accountants

Bristol's creative scene is legendary—from animation studios to brand agencies, creative businesses cluster around Harbourside and Stokes Croft. But creative excellence doesn't always translate to financial clarity. Many Bristol agencies struggle with project-based revenue recognition and separating passion projects from profitable work. Bristol agencies often mix passion projects with commercial work, making profitability hard to track. The strong local talent pool also means high churn, creating payroll unpredictability.

The Challenges OnlyFans & Fansly Creators Face

These accounting challenges are especially relevant for agencies in Bristol:

Platform Fee Complexity

OnlyFans takes 20% of everything. Tracking your actual earnings across subscriptions, tips, PPV, and custom content requires specialist reconciliation. Most accountants get this wrong.

Privacy & Discretion

You need an accountant who handles your affairs discreetly. No awkward questions, private billing descriptions, and confidential communications that protect your identity.

Multi-Currency Income

Subscribers pay in USD, EUR, and other currencies. Exchange rate tracking, international payment handling, and correct currency conversion for UK tax returns.

FAQs

Common Questions

Everything you need to know about accounting for onlyfans & fansly creators in Bristol

How do you handle privacy for OnlyFans creators?
Complete discretion is standard. Billing statements show generic professional descriptions, all communications are confidential, and we never disclose client details. Your privacy is protected throughout our working relationship.
How is OnlyFans income taxed in the UK?
OnlyFans income is taxable as trading income. The platform takes 20%, and you pay tax on what you receive. We track your actual earnings (after platform fees), claim all legitimate expenses, and ensure you pay the correct amount - no more, no less.
What expenses can OnlyFans creators claim?
Cameras, lighting, ring lights, props, costumes, subscriptions (editing software, music licensing), home office costs, internet, phone, marketing spend, and professional services. We ensure every legitimate expense is claimed.
Should I set up a Ltd company for my OnlyFans business?
Generally, once profits exceed £40,000-£50,000 annually, a Ltd company becomes more tax-efficient. We model both options at your specific income level and handle the transition privately if you decide to incorporate.
