On HungHotMen, there are various ways that you can gate your content and/or monetize it, but there are only three different kinds of users that are engaging with your content: followers, subscribers, and users that are neither of those. Enabling followers and subscribers is optional; you can have your page exclusively PPV and available to any user if you wanted to. But in order to retain an audience, keep them updated with your content, and establish consistent income for yourself, we recommend enabling followers and/or subscribers on your page. And you can have both followers and subscriptions enabled on the same profile! No need for seperate free/paid pages.
Followers
Followers will not only have access to anything you lock behind the "Following" permission, they'll also:
- have your content appear on their HungHotMen homepage
- be notified when you run Promotions for subscriptions
- receive email notifications about your content
- be a group you can send mass messages to
If you have subscriptions enabled on your page, all subscribers are set as followers, and if a subscription expires, they’ll automatically turn into a Follower. Due to how well following s you to retain engagement, we highly recommend enabling Following as an option on your page, even if all of your content is subscriber-only.
Subscriptions
As a creator, you can offer a recurring subscription to your page and various benefits (as well as being able to lock content behind a Subscribed permission).
Almost everything about Subscriptions lives on Plans/Promos page of your Creator Dashboard!
Coming Soon Many creators have only one subscription tier, but if you want to offer multiple subscription tiers with distinct prices and benefits, click "Create New Subscription Tier" for each additional tier you want to create. The display order of your tiers can be reorganized on your profile page by clicking the up or down arrow beside each subscription tier.

Coming Soon: To discount your subscriptions for a limited time, opt for a Promotion instead of altering the subscription price directly. This way, it’ll display as a discount so people know they’re getting a deal! To apply a discount for all HungHotMen users, click the "Promotion" button on a subscription tier. Enter the discounted amount, customize your promotion settings, and then click "Save & Enable." The promotion will activate based on the "Available From" setting's date and time. You can also exclude expired subscribers or those who have previously used a promotion from purchasing another promotional subscription. Once you click “Save”, your followers receive a notification on on the Start Date that you’re running a Promotion.
- Coming Soon: Multi-Month Discounts: To incentivize longer subscription periods, such as offering 15% off for a 3-month subscription, you can set up multiple plans for a subscription tier. Within "Edit Subscription Tier" under "Plans/Pricing," you can establish subscription plans for durations up to 6 months.
- Coming Soon: Offering a free trial: Gift links, visible at the bottom of your Plans/Promos page, are a great way for you to share a subscriber experience with someone at a discount of your choice! You can use these to give friends a lifetime subscription for free, or give a certain exclusive group a discounted rate rather than running a full promotion. Check out our full tutorial on Gift Links here.
On the Subscribers page you can see who joined, who has rebill on, what their subscription date is, what tier they’re in, as well as who your expired subscribers are.
Note: While multiple subscription tiers can be a fantastic way of categorising your content, many creators find success with a single tier, or no tiers!
