Promotional Content Guide (Feabie)

We understand that our Promotional Content rules may be difficult for some content creators to understand, so we’ve created this FAQ to help you better understand how you can avoid violating them. Please check the Community Conduct Rules for the full language of our rules around Promotional Content.

What is Promotional Content?

 

We define Promotional Content as the use of our platform to promote any content, product, or service in exchange for tangible benefits, such as money or gifts.

This includes but is not limited to the promotion of:

  • Paid subscription platforms (e.g. OnlyFans, Patreon, Justforfans, Sizable etc.);

  • Paid content platforms (e.g. Clips4Sale, BigCuties, etc.)

  • Individual content available for purchase (e.g. videos, photos, art, etc.);

  • Legally permissible services (e.g. cam shows, custom content, online feedings, legally permissible in-person kink sessions, etc.);

  • Products (e.g. gear, clothing, crafts, etc.);

  • And any other commercial opportunities that provide benefits to the promoter.

Importantly, our Promotional Content rules are considered different from our Donation Request rules. If a member attempts to solicit donations of any kind (such as money, tangible or intangible gifts, food, wishlists, etc.) without explicitly offering content, a product, or a service, that is considered to be a Donation Request.

For example, a post saying “Send me money and I’ll send you exclusive photos” would fall under our Promotional Content rules, while a post saying “Send me money and I’ll show you my gratitude” would fall under our Donation Request rules. For the specific limitations of our Donation Request rules, please see our Donation Request Guide.

 

Who is Allowed to Post Promotional Content on Feabie?

 

On Feabie, Promotional Content is only allowed to be posted by members whose profiles are older than 90 days and who have gone through our process of vetting to become a Verified Creators. Visit our Content Creator Verification Guide for more information on how to get verified.

Verified Creators are not allowed to post unlimited Promotional Content and must stay within certain limits outlined in our Community Conduct Rules.

Once you’ve been confirmed by our team as a Verified Creator, be sure to review these conditions BEFORE attempting to post Promotional Content:

Condition 1: No more than 1 promotional posting per 24 hour period. A promotional posting can be a newsfeed post, a photo or a photo caption. All such postings are treated the same (e.g. posting a promotional photo and a promotional status on the same day is a violation of this rule).

Condition 2: No more than 25% of your postings can be promotional. That means for every promotional posting, you must also make three non-promotional postings (pose a question, say what you ate for lunch… anything non-promotional).

Condition 3: No more than 1 of the same promotional posting (the content or presentation needs to change each time). Deleting and re-posting the same update or photo will be considered a violation of these conditions.

 

How Can I Avoid Violating the Promotion Content Rules?

 

The answers below will give you some guidance, but as a general rule of thumb, the best way to avoid violating our promotional content rules is to not use Feabie solely as a means to promote content. The posting limits are designed to encourage community engagement (for example, for every 1 Promotional Content post, there must be at least 3 posts that are not promotional).

If you are attempting to circumvent our rules in order to promote paid content, products, or services beyond what our rules allow, you will likely break these rules. As you will see below, no amount of subtlety, hinting, obfuscation or creative phrasing will allow you to steer clear of our Promotional Content rules if your underlying motive is to promote paid content, products, or services without becoming a Verified Creator or, if you are verified, in excess of the outlined limits.

Please do keep reading for more specifics on how to avoid violating our Promotional Content rules.

 

Where Does the Promotional Content Policy Apply?

 

Our Promotional Content policy covers all newsfeeds and photofeeds, which means any attempt to promote paid content, products, or services through publicly uploaded images or text posts on Feabie is covered by this policy.

The Promotional Content policy also covers private conversations. Promoting paid content via private messages–even if you are a Verified Creator–is not allowed unless promotions are introduced organically within the discussion. That means sending unsolicited promotional messages is not allowed and neither is surreptitiously promoting paid content within the first few messages to a new contact.

Here are some examples of conversations where Promotional Content is NOT introduced organically:

 

 

In each of these example conversations, the introduction of Promotional Content did not arise organically from the conversation preceding it and thus would not be allowed on Feabie.

 

What about Promotional Content Posts that Aren’t Explicit?

 

There is no way to circumvent our Promotional Content policy through the use of subtlety, suggestive phrasing, hypotheticals, jokes or any hints where the intention is clear. The only way to not run afoul of our Promotional Content policy is not to have any intention whatsoever to promote paid content, products, or services on Feabie without becoming a Verified Creator or, if you are verified, in excess of the outlined limits.

Here are a few of the common scenarios that members run into when trying to circumvent our Promotional Content policy. These are all considered Promotional Content and would be a violation if posted by a non-Verified Creator or if posted by a Verified Creator in excess of the limits and conditions:

 

 

What About Photos?

When it comes to Promotional Content, photos uploaded publicly are treated exactly the same as text posts made in the newsfeed. That means any photo, or text within the photo or caption, that states or implies that the poster is seeking to promote paid content, products, or services is considered a Promotional Content post. Such a photo cannot be posted on Feabie without becoming a Verified Creator or, if you are verified, in excess of the outlined limits.

 

If My Profile/Bio Includes Promotional Content, Can I Reference It in a Post?

All members are allowed to include Promotional Content information in their profile description/bio, regardless of whether they are Verified Creators or not. Where such information is present, however, any newsfeed or photofeed post that directs others to their profile/bio would then be considered Promotional Content, even if the post itself doesn’t include any obvious promotional elements.

 

 

In all of the above examples, for a member who is not a Verified Creator making that post would violate our rules and for a member who is a Verified Creator, making that post would count toward their posting limits.

Importantly, if the member’s profile/bio does not include any such Promotional Content, that member would be allowed to make posts referring to their profile/bio without violating this policy.

 

What About Hyperlinking to Free Content that Happens to Include Paid Content as Well?

 

Any direct links to a photo, gif or image that includes an “ad” or promotional information is considered Promotional Content, the same as if it were uploaded directly to our network.

Any direct links to videos that are primarily focused on promoting paid content is also considered an “ad” or Promotional Content.

 

As any of the above cited examples of “ads” constitute Promotional Content, they could not be posted on Feabie without becoming a Verified Creator or, if you are verified, in excess of the outlined limits; nor could any member–verified or not–send them inorganically via private message.

 

What about Hyperlinking to Link Hubs, Websites, Social Media, or Blogs?

 

Linking to third-party sites and resources, such as link hubs, websites, social media accounts or blogs can be considered Promotional Content, depending on the nature of the sites/resources themselves.

 

 

As any of the above cited examples constitute Promotional Content, they could not be posted on Feabie without becoming a Verified Creator or, if you are verified, in excess of the outlined limits; nor could any member–verified or not–send them inorganically via private message.

 

Can I Ask for Advice about My Paid Content?

 

If a member is currently offering paid content, products, or services, any reference to them in the newsfeed or photofeed would be considered Promotional Content, even if phrased as a question.

 

 

As any of the above cited examples constitute Promotional Content, they could not be posted on Feabie without becoming a Verified Creator or, if you are verified, in excess of the outlined limits; nor could any member–verified or not–send them inorganically via private message.

 

What About Promoting a Not-Yet Monetized Subscription or Paid Content Account?

 

Some paid content and subscription platforms also offer the ability to post free content. Whether or not promoting free content on such platforms constitutes Promotional Content is dependent on the nature of the platform itself.

We draw a distinction between two kinds of platforms that allow for the sale of content/subscriptions: Platforms that are predominantly focused on such paid content, and platforms that are not.

 

 

Can I Announce the Launch of My Paid Content or Platform?

 

Announcing the launch of paid content or a paid platform is considered Promotional Content.

We do allow a small amount of leeway for a member who does not yet produce or sell content, products, or services to discuss their interest and ask questions in the newsfeed, typically limited to a single post. However, once a member has decided to produce content or launch a platform, any attempt to announce or build anticipation for the content release or paid platform launch would be considered Promotional Content.

 

 

As any of the above cited examples constitute Promotional Content, they could not be posted on Feabie without becoming a Verified Creator or, if you are verified, in excess of the outlined limits; nor could any member–verified or not–send them inorganically via private message.

 

Can I Monetize My Private Album or Inbox?

 

It is forbidden to state on our platform that providing money or gifts or purchasing content is a means to gain access to your private album, DMs or communications in general, regardless of whether you are a Verified Creator or not. This includes in the newsfeed/photofeed, within profile text and/or in conversations with other members.

Such attempts are considered as Donation Requests and are covered under that policy. Please see the Donation Request Guide for more information.

 

Can I Ask Others to Promote My Profile, Content, Products, or Services for Me?

 

No. Members are not allowed to ask, encourage, incentivize, or provide compensation to others to promote their Feabie profile, paid content, products or services, regardless of whether they are Verified Creators or not.
