Custom Content Requests: Props, Outfits, and Toys That Let You Charge More
By Zoey Unicorn · 7 min read
Your monthly subscription price is not where the money is. It gets people in the door. That is its job. The money is in customs.
A custom is a video you make for one specific person, because they asked for it and paid for it. One custom can pay you more than fifteen subscribers do. It takes about twenty minutes to film. And the person who ordered it usually comes back and orders again, because now they feel like they know you.
Most creators either do not offer customs at all, or they offer them in a messy way that costs them money. So here is the whole thing, step by step, with real numbers you can copy.
Step 1: Write down what you will and will not do
Before you tell anyone you take customs, make two lists for yourself. One is the stuff you are happy to film. The other is the stuff you will never film.
Post the yes list publicly so people order from it instead of guessing. Something like: outfit videos, toy videos, talking or roleplay videos, feet, JOI. Whatever you actually do.
Then post the no list too, short and plain. No videos involving other real people who have not agreed to it. Nothing that pretends anyone is underage, ever, because that will get you banned everywhere and it is a hard line. Nothing your platform bans. Writing it down once means you stop having the same uncomfortable conversation every week.
Step 2: Set your prices and put them in writing
Stop pricing by feel. You need a base price for the video length, then extra charges for anything that costs you more time or effort. Here is a sample sheet so you can see how it fits together.
Example custom video price sheet
A sample of how one is built
These numbers are made up. It is an example of how a sheet is built, not one to copy. What works for one creator can be far off for another, so start where feels fair to you, watch how people respond, and adjust. Your prices are yours.
The last line on that sheet is the one people skip, and it is the most important one there. Read Step 6 before you decide what to charge for it.
One more rule. When your custom orders start piling up and you cannot keep up, that is not a problem. That is your prices being too low. Raise them.
Step 3: Get the money first
Full payment before you film. Not half. Not after.
This is not you being difficult. You are about to make a video that exactly one person on earth wants. If they disappear, you are holding something you cannot sell to anyone else. Every professional in every industry takes payment up front for custom work, and you should too.
If someone pushes back on paying first, that is your answer about them. Let them go.
Step 4: Use a wishlist so fans buy your outfits and toys
A wishlist is a public page of things you want, and fans can buy them for you. Your address stays hidden. Throne is the one most creators use, and you can add items from pretty much any online store, including ours. Group them into a collection with a name like Lingerie or Toys, and you get a link you can drop in your bio.
This is how you build up props and outfits without paying for them yourself. It is genuinely one of the best things you can set up this week, and it takes about an hour.
Lingerie worth putting on your list
Now the part you need to get right, because getting it wrong can cost you the account.
Read this before you post your link
Throne does not allow you to promise anything in return for a gift. Their rules say no custom work, no commissions, and nothing offered or implied in exchange for a gift. Breaking it can get your items taken down and your account suspended.
So do not post things like "buy this and I will film a video in it." Keep your wishlist as a wishlist. Sell your customs separately on OnlyFans, where selling is allowed and where the money is supposed to change hands anyway.
In practice that looks like this. Your wishlist sits in your bio as a list of things you want. Your custom price sheet sits on OnlyFans as a list of things you sell. Someone gifts you a set of lingerie because they like you and they want to see you in nice things. You thank them properly, by name, in a message. Later, that lingerie shows up in content you were going to make anyway.
If that same person wants a video made just for them, they order a custom from your price sheet and they pay for it on OnlyFans. The gift and the custom are two separate things. Keep them separate in how you talk about them and you are fine.
Step 5: Film it
Get dressed, set your phone up, and film the thing they asked for. Say their name if they paid for the name. That upcharge is real money for about four seconds of effort, and it is the single most requested add-on there is, because hearing your own name is the whole reason people buy customs instead of just watching what is already on your page.
If someone gifted you lingerie, a try-on video is a lovely way to say thank you. One video, sent privately to them, just for them. Do not announce this as a deal or a rule. It is a thank you, and it should stay a thank you.
While you are already dressed and already filming, take extra photos and a spare clip or two. You are not going to use these for their order. You are going to use them on your page next week, and it costs you four extra minutes right now.
Step 6: Send it, then film a second version for your page
This is the step that doubles your money and almost nobody does it.
Send the custom to the person who bought it. Then, unless they paid the exclusive fee, film a second version of the same idea with no name in it and nothing that identifies them. That second video goes on your page as paid content, and you can sell it to a hundred people.
You already did the hard part. You are already dressed, already lit, already in the mood to be on camera. Filming it again takes ten more minutes and turns one sale into an unlimited number of them.
This is exactly why the exclusive fee exists. If someone wants to be the only person on earth who has that video, they can absolutely have that, and they pay for it, because you are giving up all the resale money. Charge properly for it. Say it clearly on your price sheet so nobody is surprised later, and honour it when they pay it.
Props that earn their keep
That collar is worth a special mention. It gets personalised with a name, which makes it the rare prop that does the upselling for you, and a fan who buys you one has just handed you a reason to film.
Mistakes that cost you money
Filming before you are paid. You already know. Do not do it.
Giving away exclusivity for free. If you never resell your customs, you are throwing away most of what each one is worth. Either charge for exclusivity or reuse the idea.
Saying yes to everything. An open request box means you spend your whole day turning things down. A menu means people order from the menu.
Never mentioning that you take customs. Most of your followers have no idea it is an option. Say it out loud every week. Post when you finish one, keep it vague, and remind people the list is open.
Start with three things this week. Write your yes and no lists. Work out your own prices using that sheet as a shape, not a copy. Set up a wishlist and put the link in your bio. That is a real custom business, and you can have it running by Friday.
