How to check that a monetization link is publicly linked to an identity?
A monetization link can be copied, moved, shortened or presented by a fake account. Before clicking, paying or promoting a link, you need to check which identity it is attached to.
In 30 seconds
- A monetization link alone does not prove who controls it.
- The publication context matters: website, profile, bio or official page.
- Kicklinks does not present the platform account as certified.
- Kicklinks makes it possible to show that a monetization link is publicly linked to an identity.
The risk
Monetization links concentrate risk: payment, subscription, restricted content, creator impersonation or fake intermediary. A copy can capture a significant amount of attention and revenue.
Signals to check
- Link published only by a doubtful or recent account.
- Bio or social profile that does not point to a stable official reference.
- Platform different from the one announced.
- Shortened link or redirection that is hard to understand.
- No attachment to a website, profile or verifiable identity.
What link proof should show
The proof should display the monetization link, the platform concerned, the attached identity and the support where the link was observed.
The exact monetization link.
The platform concerned: OnlyFans, Fanfix, Patreon, Fansly or another supported platform.
The identity the link is attached to.
The proof support: website, profile, page or another observable source.
The proof status and history.
Concrete scenario
A fake account publishes a monetization link using a creator’s images. The public does not know whether the link is official.
With Kicklinks, the creator can publish proof showing that this monetization link is publicly linked to this identity, without claiming to certify the platform account.
Important wording
What Kicklinks brings
- An exact link displayed clearly.
- An attached identity.
- An observable proof support.
- A consultable status and possible revocation.
Frequently asked questions
Does Kicklinks certify an OnlyFans or Fanfix account?
No. Kicklinks must not be presented as certifying the platform account. The proof concerns the attachment of a monetization link to an identity.
Why is the proof support important?
Because a link can be copied. The proof support shows where the link was found and how it is attached to the identity.
Should a revoked link disappear?
Not necessarily. A dated revocation can indicate that the link is no longer maintained or claimed, instead of leaving ambiguity.
