I Made My Rent in 2 Days Sexting on SextPanther—Here's My Exact Strategy
"I made my rent in two days and this pay period isn't even over yet. All through texting and sending pics!"
That Reddit post blew up this week. We get why everyone's suddenly curious about SextPanther. Making real money through texting—no camera required—hits different when you're burnt out from camming or looking to add another income stream.
Some creators are celebrating their best month ever.
Others with solid followings can't even get approved.
And those who do get in? Many say month two looks nothing like month one.
We dug into what's actually happening—the wins, the rejections, the pricing wars, and whether this is sustainable. Here's what creators are experiencing with SextPanther in 2025.
What Makes SextPanther Different
If you're used to OnlyFans, SextPanther works completely differently.
Users pay per interaction. Every text. Every photo. Every voice message. Every call. No freeloaders sliding into your DMs expecting free conversation.
The creator who made rent in two days shared her exact rates:
- Texts: $1.25–$1.75 each
- Voice messages: $2.50
- Photos: $5–$10
- Videos: $10–$50 (length and content dependent)
- Calls: $10/minute, 6-minute minimum ($60 minimum per call)
Her strategy? Post to the Explore feed every hour with three hashtags. Turn calls on only when home alone and available. Keep it sustainable. Keep it consistent.
This works well if you:
- Need a break from camming but still need income
- Want to monetize existing photo/video content differently
- Prefer work you can do throughout the day on your schedule
- Already have a content library built up
Getting approved is where things get messy.
SextPanther Approval in 2025: What's Actually Happening
This is where creators are most frustrated. Denials are common even with what seems like adequate following:
"They denied meeeee 😭 They won't even explain why, I thought my NF rating was high enough to indicate a good following."
"Same... They said I don't have a following but I've seen people with less than me get in."
"Wish they had a different rule for acceptance, a lot of us don't do socials and apparently NF doesn't count."
The official requirements (from a pinned Reddit post):
- US or Canada citizenship with valid ID
- Established following on social media (Twitter/Instagram) OR adult platforms (MFC, Chaturbate, ManyVids, OnlyFans)
- Active following with organic engagement (case-by-case evaluation)
- Adult industry content on linked socials
- Willingness to promote and engage with your fanbase
What experienced creators say actually helps:
List multiple platforms. Your best cam site PLUS subscription site (OF/Fansly) PLUS clip store. They want established creators, not beginners.
If using social media: One creator suggested 100+ followers but only following 2-3 accounts, with your most-engaged post pinned. Shows you create content people want, not just reciprocal following.
Get a referral if you can. Helps but doesn't guarantee approval. Several creators got denied even with referrals.
One creator: "I think the requirements are higher now since so many people are jumping on the online sex work train. This isn't a place for new models."
Outside the US/Canada? You're out of luck. The platform only accepts creators from those two countries.
What the Successful Creator Actually Did
Back to that creator who made rent in two days. What worked?
Posting schedule: Every hour to Explore with three hashtags. Not a "set it and forget it" thing. You need consistent visibility.
Pricing: Lower text rates ($1.25–$1.75), premium for media and calls. Creates an easy entry point while monetizing higher-value stuff appropriately. The volume vs. premium debate you see with cam pricing? Same thing here.
Availability: Calls on only when home alone and can deliver quality interaction. No stress from calls at bad times. Keeps service quality up, keeps users coming back.
This pricing sparked debate. Some think lower text prices look desperate or devalue the service. Others say it's about volume—accessible pricing means more interactions, which adds up faster than waiting for users willing to pay premium.
One creator: "You have to be in the top 1000 to make anything significant. That means most on there, close to 20k, don't make shit, not even close to 1k a month."
The sustainability question.
What Month 2 Actually Looks Like
Pattern we noticed: amazing first months, quiet second months.
"SextPanther was amazing my first month… now it's hit or miss. Some days are great and others it's dead. How do you get enough paying traffic on there?"
The platform has around 20,000 models. You need to rank in the top 1,000 to make real income. Top 5%. Maintaining that ranking takes daily presence "for a few hours" minimum.
There's debate about whether free nudity in Explore posts hurts everyone:
"I don't know if I'm the only one sees it this way but free nudity doesn't benefit neither the page or the model... I think this is one of the reasons why men add you as contact without ever texting because they're just lurkers."
When creators give content away free to get attention, it trains users to expect free content. Makes it harder for everyone to maintain rates. Classic race-to-the-bottom problem.
SextPanther can work. But know what you're getting into:
- Daily presence required to maintain visibility and ranking
- First month success doesn't guarantee the same level going forward
- Competition is real—20,000 models competing for attention
- Your pricing affects not just you but the whole platform economy
Is It Worth Trying?
After looking at wins, rejections, and sustainability concerns:
Best as a supplement. Not your primary income. That rent-in-two-days thing? Great. Building a business strategy around repeating that every month? Unrealistic.
Useful for burnout. Need a break from performing live but still need income? Text platforms are a real alternative. No camera required.
Diversification matters. Income across multiple platforms—camming, clips, subscriptions, text services—protects you from algorithm changes, traffic drops, or policy shifts hitting any single source.
If you meet requirements (established creator, US/Canada, active following), application is free. Standard industry commission. You won't know what you can make until you try.
Go in with realistic expectations.
Not everyone hits top 1,000. Not every first month repeats. But for the right creator with realistic goals? Money can be made texting. Same way you need to spot scams on cam sites, you'll need your own system for managing time-wasters and maximizing paying interactions on text platforms.
Earning in your pajamas, responding to messages between other tasks? Worth something.
