Account settings are not the glamorous part of being a creator. No one logs in excited to adjust toggles. But on LoyalFans these settings quietly decide whether your page feels smooth and intentional or chaotic and draining.
The right settings can guide fan behavior, boost sales, and save you a lot of energy. If you set them up thoughtfully, they work in the background while you focus on creating.
Automated Welcome Messages
Your welcome message is doing the talking before you even show up. It sets the tone and lets fans know how things work on your page.
A strong welcome message can:
- Explain what kind of content you post
- Point fans toward your video store or locked messages
- Set expectations for chatting and customs
This keeps you from answering the same questions repeatedly and helps new subscribers know how to support you right away. (Pro tip: there is also an automated message option for when someone buys a video from your store. This is a great way to spot someone willing to spend money and reach out to them.)
Subscription Discounts and Promotions
Subscription discounts are a great way to bring in new fans or re-engage old ones. A limited-time promo can lower the barrier for someone who’s been on the fence.
You can use subscription discounts for:
- Launches or relaunches
- Holidays or themed events
- Bringing back expired subscribers
The key is to use them intentionally so they feel like a bonus, not the default.
Video Store Settings and Discounts
Your video store is one of the most underrated money-makers on LoyalFans. It lets fans browse and buy content without messaging you, which means passive income.
Beyond just uploading videos, you can also:
- Set discounts on video store items
- Run sales on older content
- Highlight bestsellers during promotions
Video store discounts are great for clearing older content, rewarding loyal fans, or boosting sales during slower periods without extra effort from you.
Messaging Fees
Messaging fees are exactly what they sound like. They allow you to charge a small amount for fans to send you messages. Instead of unlimited free chatting, fans pay a set fee each time they message you.
This setting can be especially useful if you notice a lot of fans sending constant messages but never tipping or buying content. Messaging fees create a natural boundary by making fans think a little more before sending “hey” ten times in a row.
Messaging fees can help you:
- Filter out fans who just want endless free conversation
- Encourage more intentional messages
- Protect your time and energy
Not every creator uses messaging fees, and some prefer to keep messages free while charging for locked replies or sexting. It really depends on how you want your page to run. But if your inbox is overflowing and you feel like you’re spending hours chatting without much return, messaging fees can be a helpful tool to balance things out.
Blocking Settings
Boundaries are not just healthy, they’re good for business. LoyalFans gives you tools to control who can get access to you. You can block people from commenting on your feed, from attending your streams, and/or from messaging you.
Using these settings helps:
- Filter out time-wasters
- Encourage respectful behavior
- Protect your time and attention
Fans who respect boundaries tend to stick around and support you long-term.
Account settings might not be exciting, but they shape how your page runs every day. When they’re set up well, fans know what to expect, your workflow feels smoother, and earning feels easier.
Taking a little time to fine-tune your settings now can save you a lot of frustration later and help your page feel more fun and profitable to run.
