It was formerly recognized as TeeSpring and allows creators to sell merchandise directly from the website. It also helps with the printing process and fulfills it with another party. The viewing audience of the creators is able to shop through the creator's page. Here, they will have a preview of the available merchandise before clicking a link to see the Spring store. Notably, OnlyFans will only take a 20% cut of the uploads and won't gain additional commission from the e-commerce section. Creators will pay the same rates as the Spring-powered businesses since that is the base technology of the e-commerce integration.
