LONDON — OnlyFans will screen creators in the United States for criminal convictions, CEO Keily Blair has announced in a post on LinkedIn.
“I am very proud to add our partnership with Checkr Trust to our onboarding process in the US,” Blair writes. “Checkr, Inc. helps OnlyFans to prevent people who have a criminal conviction that may impact our community's safety from signing up as a Creator on OnlyFans.”
Checkr is a screening service that bills itself as delivering “instant criminal and public record checks covering 99% of the U.S. population.” The company lists Uber, Instacart, DoorDash and Netflix among its clients.
Blair's post does not specify whether any criminal conviction of any kind would disqualify creators, or if some types of convictions would exclude creators from the platform while others would not. XBIZ has reached out to OnlyFans for clarification.
In October, Pornhub announced via its quarterly newsletter that it would require content partners to complete a criminal background check during onboarding to support “a safer, more trustworthy environment.”
