Lewdden allows the broadest range of lawful adult content you’ll find on any major platform. There are no fetish blacklists, no “safer-content” pressure to please advertisers, and no category limits beyond the hard prohibitions in Prohibited content — what you cannot publish. This guide is the positive-framed companion to that one — what you can sell, the product types available to you, the pricing rules, the performer-compliance line, and how to know when your idea is on or off the platform.
If you only need the negative side, jump to Prohibited content. If you’re trying to figure out how to monetise an idea you already have, read on.
1. The kinds of things you can sell
Lewdden is built around eight monetisation surfaces. You don’t need to use all of them — pick the ones that fit your work — but they’re all available the moment your account is approved.
- Pre-recorded clips — uploaded videos sold individually, with a price you set per clip. Minimum €4.99. Sales, subscriber-only pricing, and inclusion in a subscription are all configurable. See How to add a clip — from upload to publishing and Pricing your clips.
- Livestream recordings (VODs) — every livestream you opt to record becomes a VOD on your storefront. You can leave it free, gate it to subscribers, or publish it as a paid clip with the in-page trim and trailer tools.
- Live streams — six monetisation modes: free (tip-monetised), premium per-minute, ticketed shows, subscriber-only, 1:1 private (with optional voyeur), and 1:1 exclusive private (cam2cam, no voyeurs). See Public, ticketed and 1:1 private shows.
- Subscriptions — your monthly bundle. You set a price per period, decide which clips and recordings are included, and (optionally) discount every other clip in your store for active subscribers. See Setting up your subscription tier and Offering clip discounts to your subscribers.
- Feed posts — photos, short videos, voice notes, and text updates posted to your feed. Free to all, locked to subscribers, or sold individually as PPV. Tipping on individual posts is supported.
- Direct messages — text, photos, video, voice notes — text threads with fans, with per-text pricing where you choose, paid-media unlocks, and broadcast messaging to your full fan list. See Sending paid messages.
- Custom orders — fans request a one-off scene with a brief and an offered price; you accept, decline, or counter, then deliver. The whole flow stays inside the platform’s escrow.
- Physical merch — signed prints, polaroids, used items, custom-made physical merchandise. Shipped from you to the buyer with the platform handling payment, address, and tracking.
You can lean on one surface (a clips-only creator) or use the full mix. The platform doesn’t push you toward any particular product type.
2. Content categories — open by default
Every clip you publish is assigned a category from the platform’s category list (the same list shoppers use to browse — Anal Play, Constipation, Couple, Desperation, Diapers, Diarrhea, Dine + Dump, Eating, EFRO, Enema, Farting, Foot Fetish, Inside Toilet POV, Pantypoop, Pissing, Prolapse, Public + Outdoors, Scat Masturbation, Scat Sex, Smearing, Solo, Tasting, Toilet Pooping, Toilet Slavery, Vomit, etc.). You can pick more than one. There’s no fetish category or kink that’s off the list because we judge it; the only off-limits content is the eight categories in Prohibited content.
Tags are free-form — type whatever a customer might search for. Add at least one tag per clip; it’s the single biggest discoverability lever. Customising your store’s bio, attributes, and activities feeds the same discovery surface — see Customising your store for the form.
If you’re publishing a livestream recording as a clip, the Livestream VODs category is auto-assigned and can’t be removed. You can stack other categories on top of it.
3. Who can appear in your content
Anyone in your content needs to be:
- 18 or over. Age is verified at sign-up via identity verification. There is no exception. If you can’t 100% confirm a person’s age, they can’t appear.
- Consenting to the specific recording and to its publication on Lewdden. Off-camera consent isn’t enough on its own — the on-camera framing of a clip can’t depict non-consent (the second half of Prohibited content §3 (Non-consent, force, and coercion) covers this).
- Linked to your account as an approved performer if it’s anyone other than you. Adding additional performers happens in your Creator Onboarding — once a performer’s identity is verified and linked to your account, they can appear in your clips, recordings, feed posts, and messages. Until everyone in a clip is approved, the clip is held at moderation.
Voyeurs and viewers in a private show don’t count as “performers.” They don’t appear on your camera; they just watch. No additional verification is needed for them.
Cam2cam viewers in an exclusive private also don’t count as performers — they appear only on your screen, not in the recording.
4. AI-generated content, deepfakes, and rights
You can sell AI-generated or AI-assisted content as long as:
- You hold the rights to the underlying material (you generated it, you own a licence to it, or it’s clearly yours).
- It doesn’t depict any real person who hasn’t consented to being depicted (no public-figure deepfakes, no ex-partner deepfakes, no celebrity body-swaps).
- It doesn’t fall into any of the prohibited categories. AI doesn’t create a carve-out — an AI-generated clip whose framing is incest, age-play, or non-consent is treated identically to a live-action one.
- You’re transparent in the title/description if the content is fully AI-generated. Fans can choose to opt in or opt out; lying about whether something is AI is grounds for review.
You can’t sell content depicting another real person without their consent, AI-assisted or not. If a customer reports content depicting them and they didn’t consent, the content is removed on request — see Reporting a creator or content.
Identity rights and 2257. Lewdden keeps the records-of-age (US 18 U.S.C. 2257-equivalent) for the performers verified through the platform. You don’t need to store separate paperwork — the platform’s verification flow is what backs each clip.
5. Pricing — the platform line
The hard rules:
- €4.99 minimum on any paid clip. The same floor applies to subscriber-only pricing on out-of-bundle clips. You can charge whatever you like above €4.99.
- No platform-side maximum. Some categories sell for €100+; some for €4.99. Your call.
- Free is free. Feed posts, recordings, and clips can all be set to free where it makes sense (e.g. a teaser, a fan favourite re-released for visibility).
- Subscription bundles can include any of your clips at no extra cost to subscribers. Off-bundle clips can have a global subscriber discount and per-clip price overrides — see Offering clip discounts to your subscribers.
- Sales — you can put any clip on sale for any duration. The buyer pays the lower of the sale price and the subscriber-discounted price.
- Live streams — you set the per-minute rate on premium and private rooms, and the ticket price on ticketed shows. Private shows have a 5-minute minimum-duration default (you can change this in your livestream settings).
- Physical merch — you set the product price. Shipping is added on top at checkout.
You keep 50 % of your own sales — and up to 70 %* with the affiliate program. That commission is calculated on the post-discount price the buyer paid, so subscriber discounts and sales reduce both sides equally — no hidden fee on discounted clips. Your earnings show up in Store Manager → Sales and Store Manager → Reports; payouts move to your IBAN via Paxum / Wise / Payoneer once you’ve crossed the payout threshold (see How creator payouts work).
Upload size cap: 50 GB per file. That’s intentionally high — most clips are well under it. If you hit it on a long livestream recording, the platform splits the file in the background; you don’t have to do anything.
6. What’s off-limits
The eight prohibited categories are listed in full on Prohibited content — what you cannot publish. The short version:
- Anything involving minors (or appearing-to-be-minors), in any framing.
- Incest and family-relation sexual contact, including step-family if framed sexually.
- Non-consent, force, coercion (consensual non-consent role-play counts here when the published framing depicts non-consent).
- Incapacitated, drugged, or unconscious participants.
- Bestiality, zoophilia, animal contact.
- Necrophilia.
- Extreme violence, mutilation, “snuff” content.
- The other absolute prohibitions — listed in §8 of the prohibited-content article (suicide content, hard drugs being prepared/used, weapons-as-foreplay, real medical emergencies, etc.).
These apply across all eight monetisation surfaces — clips, recordings, feed posts, custom orders, messages, lives, physical merch, and subscriptions. AI-generated versions are treated identically to live-action.
7. When in doubt, ask
Run the 30-second self-check in Prohibited content §10 before uploading. It catches almost everything.
If any doubt is left after that, open a support ticket with category Account admin, describe the planned content in clear terms, and we’ll tell you whether the framing is on the platform, needs editing, or is a hard no. We’d rather answer the question than take a clip down — if support says yes, you have a green light and we’ll back you up if a customer reports the content later.
Common questions
Q: Can I sell content I made before I joined Lewdden?
Yes, as long as you hold the rights and every performer in it is verified on your account or linked as an approved additional performer. Older back-catalogue content is welcome; you can bulk-upload it via FTP once your account is approved (see How to add a clip).
Q: Can I sell content I shot for another platform?
Same answer — yes, if you hold the rights to it. Most platform-specific contracts you’ll have signed are non-exclusive on the content itself; check your contract before publishing if you’re unsure.
Q: Can I sell something a fan made of me (a fan-edit, a compilation)?
Only if the fan transferred the rights to you. The platform needs a clear ownership chain. If a fan edits content of you that was already on your store, treat the edit as a derivative work — most fans will be happy to gift it to you for re-publishing, but you should get that in writing before you sell it.
Q: Are there topics that aren’t prohibited but are still on the edge?
Some framings (CNC role-play, age-play between consenting adults, family-fantasy framings) are real kinks people have privately, but the published presentation can’t depict them as the actual scenario. The line is on the publish-side, not the private-side. If your idea is in this zone, ask support before uploading.
Q: Can I sell physical items that are content-adjacent — used clothing, props, signed prints?
Yes. Used worn items, signed prints, polaroids, and custom physical merchandise are all sellable through the platform’s shop surface. The same content rules apply — a physical product whose marketing depicts a prohibited category is treated identically to a digital one.
Q: Can I require fans to subscribe before they can message me?
Yes. In Store Manager → Profile you can set your inbox to subscribers-only. Fans without an active subscription will see your storefront but won’t have a Message button. See Sending paid messages.
Q: Can I offer custom-made content?
Yes. Store Manager → Custom Orders opens a request inbox where fans submit briefs with an offered price; you accept, decline, or counter. The fan pays into platform escrow at the time of acceptance and you deliver via the platform’s secure delivery flow. The same content rules apply — a custom request that asks for prohibited content gets declined automatically once moderation reviews the brief.
Q: I’m not sure my idea fits — who do I ask?
Open a support ticket with category Account admin, describe the planned clip in clear terms, and we’ll tell you. Getting clarity in advance is the right move — both for your work and to avoid wasted upload time.
Need more help?
If you want a sanity-check on a specific clip, scene, custom-order brief, or physical-product idea before you go ahead, open a support ticket from your account with the planned title and a 1–2 sentence framing description. We’ll give you a green light, a “needs editing” with the specific change, or a hard no — usually within a few hours.
