According to a 2026 market analysis, Minneapolis has emerged as one of the nation’s leading consumers of the subscription‑based platform OnlyFans. When spending is measured per 10,000 adults, the city recorded $693,323, positioning it among the top five U.S. markets.
How the rankings were calculated
The researchers behind the report adjusted raw spending figures to account for city size, ensuring that larger metropolitan areas would not automatically dominate the list. By normalizing the data to a per‑10,000‑adult basis, the study provides a clearer picture of relative consumer enthusiasm for the service.
National comparison
The top five cities, as listed by the New York Post in November 2026, are:
- Atlanta, Georgia – $1,091,381
- Orlando, Florida – $940,796
- Miami, Florida – $740,575
- Seattle, Washington – $716,891
- Minneapolis, Minnesota – $693,323
While Minneapolis trails the four larger markets, its per‑adult spending still outpaces many major cities, underscoring a strong local demand for the platform’s content.
Minnesota’s broader performance
Earlier data from OnlyGuiders, released in 2025, indicated that other Minnesota cities also rank favorably. St. Paul placed 17th nationally, and Rochester appeared at 141st. These rankings suggest that the state’s residents collectively allocate a notable share of their discretionary income to OnlyFans.
Context for the numbers
Overall worldwide spending on OnlyFans is projected to reach $8.56 billion in 2026, a 10.25 percent increase from the previous year. U.S. consumers account for roughly $5.26 billion of that total, reflecting the platform’s growing popularity among American adults.
While the report focuses on financial metrics, it does not assess the nature of the content purchased or the demographic breakdown of subscribers. The data simply reflects aggregate spending per adult population.
What this means for local businesses
High per‑adult spending on digital subscription services can signal broader trends in discretionary spending habits. Local retailers and service providers may consider these patterns when evaluating consumer confidence and purchasing power in the Twin Cities area.
For community leaders and policymakers, the figures are a reminder that digital economies are increasingly intertwined with everyday life. Understanding how residents allocate their entertainment budgets can inform future discussions about broadband access, digital literacy, and consumer protection.
Looking ahead
The report’s authors plan to release updated rankings later in 2027, which will allow observers to track whether Minneapolis maintains its position or if other markets overtake it. Continued monitoring of per‑adult spending will provide a useful barometer of how digital subscription services evolve in the United States.
