MYM: How to Create a Creator Account and Start Earning Money

Introduction

Making a living from your online content is many people's dream. But between fierce competition on YouTube and collapsing revenues, it's hard to find your way.

Yet there's a booming French platform that allows thousands of creators to comfortably live from their passion: it's called MYM (for "Meet Your Model").

In this comprehensive guide, we explain everything:

1. What is MYM — What exactly is it and how does it work?
2. Creator Account Tutorial — The 5 steps to get started
3. Tips for Success — The secrets of successful creators

I. Overview: What is MYM and How Does It Work?

MYM, the Social Network That Pays You

MYM is a French social network created in 2019 that, at first glance, looks like Instagram: you can share photos and videos.

But where everything changes is that every creator can offer paid content accessible only to fans who subscribe. No more dependence on algorithms and ads that pay pennies!

With MYM, your fans pay you directly. No advertising intermediary, no ridiculous CPM.

How to Make Money with MYM?

On MYM, you have multiple income streams.

Monthly subscription is the base: your fans pay between €9.99 and €99.99/month to access your exclusive content. You set the price based on the value you provide.

Private media (PPV) lets you sell unique content on demand, personalized for your most loyal fans. This often generates the most revenue because you can charge much higher amounts for custom content.

Tips are a nice bonus: your subscribers can send you tips if they particularly appreciate your work or simply to support you.

Paid lives let you interact directly with your community for payment, creating a privileged connection with your fans.

Concrete example: With just 200 subscribers at €10/month, you pocket about €1,500 net after MYM's commission. And that's every month, recurring!

Is MYM Free?

Yes, signup and use are 100% free. You never pay anything to be on the platform.

MYM only earns by taking a commission on your earnings:

It's a win-win model: MYM has every interest in your success!

Who Can Become a MYM Creator?

Good news: anyone can sign up, as long as you're an adult (18+ minimum).

Contrary to what you might think, MYM isn't reserved for adult content. You'll find coaches of all kinds (sports, nutrition, dating, business), chefs sharing their secret recipes, musicians and artists revealing their behind-the-scenes, gamers and streamers, photographers and videographers, bettors giving their predictions, psychics and therapists, and of course models monetizing their image.

There are 11 different categories on MYM: Glamour, Coaching, Arts, Astrology & Psychic, Online Courses, Gamer, Lifestyle, Personality, Association, Sport, and Adult. Whatever your talent, there's a place for you!

MYM vs OnlyFans: What's the Difference?

Both platforms work on the same principle, but MYM has several advantages.

Being a French platform, you benefit from French customer support and simplified European payments. MYM also offers better content protection with automatic watermarking and an included legal department to fight leaks. Commissions are competitive, especially on tips where MYM only takes 10% compared to 20% at OnlyFans. Finally, creator promotion via the discovery feed lets you gain visibility for free.

MYM in Numbers (2024)

The platform now has over 8 million registered fans and more than 400,000 active creators. MYM receives over 7 million visitors per month and generated €60 million in revenue in 2022, earning it a spot in the prestigious French Tech 120.

II. Tutorial: Create Your MYM Creator Account in 5 Steps

Let's get practical! Signing up on MYM takes 5 simple steps. Follow this guide to create and configure your account in under 10 minutes.

Step 1/5 — Your Personal Information

Go to mym.fans and click "Sign Up" then select "Creator".

The first step asks you to enter your basic information: your first name, last name, date of birth, and gender (Male or Female).

Important: Use your real information because MYM will verify your identity during certification. Don't worry—this data remains completely confidential and won't be displayed on your public profile.

Step 2/5 — Choose Your Creator Category

MYM then asks you to select one category that matches your content type.

Available categories are: Glamour, Coaching, Arts, Astrology & Psychic, Online Courses, Gamer, Lifestyle, Personality, Association, Sport, and Adult.

Choose the one that best matches what you'll offer. If you do fitness, pick "Coaching" or "Sport." If you're a model or photo model, "Glamour" or "Adult" depending on your content.

Tip: You can only choose one, but nothing stops you from diversifying your content later!

Step 3/5 — Configure Your Profile

Time to create your identity on MYM! This step is crucial because it's the first impression you'll give visitors.

Your profile picture is what people will see first. Choose a clear, quality image that showcases you and makes them want to see more.

Your username will be part of your profile URL (mym.fans/YourUsername). Choose something memorable, easy to spell, and consistent with your image. Warning—it will be hard to change later!

Your bio is your sales pitch. You have 1500 characters to introduce yourself, explain what subscribers will find on your profile, and why they should subscribe.

The city lets fans know your location if you wish.

Step 4/5 — Add Your Hashtags

Hashtags help users find you via MYM search. You must add at least 3 that describe your content.

Type your hashtags in the field and click "Add." For example: #lifestyle, #fitness, #french, #brunette, #tattoo, etc.

Advice: Choose relevant and popular hashtags in your niche. Mix general terms (#lifestyle) and more specific ones (#fitgirl, #yoga) to maximize your visibility.

Step 5/5 — Set Your Subscription Price

Final step: set the price your fans will pay to access your exclusive content.

MYM offers 4 price tiers for monthly subscriptions:

€9.99 per month — Entry price, ideal to attract people if you're starting or posting little content.

€19.99 per month — The most common rate on MYM, a good balance between accessibility and valuing your work.

€49.99 per month — For premium content with high added value or an already established community.

€99.99 per month — Reserved for established creators with strong notoriety and very exclusive content.

You can also enable the "Allow biannual offer" option to offer a reduced rate to fans who commit for 6 months.

Our advice: If you're starting, begin with €9.99 or €19.99 to attract your first subscribers. You can always increase later once your community is established!

Click "Save and view my profile" and there you go—your MYM creator account is created!

Bonus — Certification (Essential to Get Paid!)

Once your account is created, you'll need to get it certified to receive payments. It's a legal requirement.

Certification requires a valid ID (ID card or passport), a verification selfie following the displayed instructions, your bank details (IBAN), and your phone number.

Verification typically takes 24 to 48 hours. Sometimes the system is finicky—don't hesitate to try again if it doesn't work the first time.

Good to know: You can start publishing before being certified, but your earnings will remain blocked until validation. Once certified, you'll also be promoted by MYM in the discovery feed, giving you free visibility!

Publish Your First Content

Your profile is ready—time to fill it! Click "New +" and choose between Post to share a photo or article, Story for an ephemeral video, or Push to send a notification to your subscribers.

Rules to absolutely follow:

Your content must be 100% exclusive. Never publish on MYM something already available elsewhere (Instagram, OnlyFans, personal site...) or risk being banned!

You must appear in your content, alone or accompanied, but you must be featured.

No stolen content: only your own creations.

Tip: Leave some free content as a preview so visitors can discover your style before subscribing.

III. Tips: How to Grow Your Account and Maximize Your Earnings

Having a beautiful profile isn't enough. Here are techniques from successful MYM creators.

Tip 1 — Use Discount Codes

In Tools > Discount Codes, you can create promo codes to attract new subscribers. For example, offer -50% on the first month for new subscribers, a reduced trial during a limited period, or a discount on private media to build loyalty.

A discount only applies to the first payment. Renewal will be at the normal rate. So it's an excellent way to attract curious people without devaluing your work!

Tip 2 — Set Up Automatic Messages

In Tools > Automatic Messages, you can send personalized messages to your fans based on their behavior.

When a new subscriber arrives, send them a welcome message with a presentation of your best content. On renewal, thank them and offer a small bonus as a gift. When a subscription is about to expire, send a reminder with a promo code to encourage them to stay. In case of unsubscription, a message to understand why and a return offer can sometimes win back a fan.

These automations give the impression that you're attentive to each fan, even while you sleep!

Tip 3 — Master Template Responses

Still in Tools, template responses save you tons of time. Create templates to respond to private media requests, explain your rates, thank for tips, or answer frequently asked questions. You'll just need to slightly personalize before sending.

Tip 4 — Promote on Your Other Networks

Your MYM subscribers will mainly come from your existing social networks.

On Instagram and TikTok, add your MYM link in bio, post teasers of your exclusive content, and use stories to create urgency ("New content available on my MYM!").

On Twitter/X, you have more freedom with suggestive content. Use popular hashtags in your niche to be discovered.

Statistic: On average, 1 to 3% of your followers on regular networks will convert to paying subscribers on MYM.

Tip 5 — Become a MYM Ambassador

Know other creators who might get started? Refer them!

As a MYM ambassador, you earn 10% of all their earnings. It's an excellent way to generate passive income on top of your creator activity.

Tip 6 — Be Consistent and Interactive

Successful creators all have one thing in common: consistency.

Post at least 2-3 times per week to keep your subscribers engaged. Respond to messages from your fans to create a real connection. Organize regular lives to strengthen the bond with your community. Create polls to involve your subscribers in your content choices. Offer custom content on request for fans who want more.

The closer your fans feel to you, the longer they stay subscribed and the more they spend on extras.

How Much Can You Really Earn on MYM?

Earnings vary enormously depending on your niche, existing audience, and investment:

These figures only include subscriptions! Add private media, tips, and lives, and you can easily double or triple these amounts.

Protect Your Content Against Leaks

The downside of creating exclusive paid content? Leaks.
