APClips

APClips is a fetish clip marketplace that launched as a direct competitor to Clips4Sale, offering creators an alternative platform to sell individual videos and photo sets. The platform specializes in niche and fetish content across hundreds of categories, from mainstream adult content to highly specialized kinks. APClips operates on the same storefront model where creators set up their own shops, upload content, set their own prices, and earn from one-time purchases rather than subscriptions. What makes APClips attractive to creators is its competitive commission structure and creator-focused features. The platform offers one of the better revenue splits in the clip marketplace space, with creators keeping 65% to 75% of sales depending on their sales volume and tenure on the platform. New creators start at 65%, but as you build your catalog and sales increase, you can qualify for higher commission tiers. This performance-based system rewards successful creators who treat the platform as a serious business. APClips provides multiple ways to earn beyond basic clip sales. Creators can sell individual videos at prices they set, typically ranging from a few dollars to premium rates for longer or custom content. Photo sets allow you to monetize still images for buyers who prefer photos. Custom video requests let fans commission personalized content at negotiated prices, usually commanding premium rates. The platform also supports monthly fan clubs where subscribers get access to your entire catalog for a recurring fee, creating passive income alongside individual sales. The platform offers strong promotional tools to help creators get discovered. Every new upload gets automatic homepage placement for a limited time, giving your content immediate visibility to site traffic. APClips features trending and top-selling sections that showcase popular content, and creators who perform well can earn featured placements. The category system is extensive with hundreds of niches, making it easier for buyers to find exactly what they're looking for and discover your content through browsing. APClips provides content protection through watermarking options, DMCA takedown support, and secure video hosting. The platform includes geoblocking features that let you hide your content from specific countries, states, zip codes, or even individual IP addresses. This is particularly useful for creators who want to maintain privacy from their local area or family. The message center allows direct communication with buyers for custom requests and building customer relationships. Payouts are processed twice monthly on the 1st and 15th with a $50 minimum threshold. Payment options include direct deposit, check, Paxum, and wire transfer for international creators. The platform charges a small monthly studio fee that covers hosting and bandwidth costs, but this fee is waived if you meet minimum monthly sales thresholds. New creators get a grace period to build their catalog before fees apply. The approval process requires ID verification and proof that you have rights to the content you're uploading. APClips maintains content standards to ensure quality and compliance with payment processor requirements. The platform welcomes most fetish niches and provides clear guidelines on what types of content are acceptable.
