This course takes you from registering as self-employed through records that survive an enquiry, allowable expenses, self assessment step by step, National Insurance and pensions, VAT and how platforms collect it, payouts and fees, banking and being debanked, budgeting through feast and famine, sole trader or limited company, benefits and mortgages, and planning for the long term.

Money and Tax for UK Performers and Creators: questions
Do I pay tax on OnlyFans income in the UK?
Yes. Once your self-employed income passes the trading allowance you must register with HMRC and file self assessment. The course walks through when, how, and what you can deduct first.
Is this financial advice?
No. It teaches how the system works and what accountants who understand the industry advise, so you know the right questions to ask and what to do yourself.
