Fanfix: The Go-To Platform for Gen Z Creators

Launched in 2021, Fanfix has quickly built a reputation as a creator-first platform where influencers can monetize their content without relying on ads or brand deals. Through exclusive content subscriptions, tipping, and premium engagement features, Fanfix provides Gen Z creators with a direct line to their most dedicated fans.

Since being acquired by global brand accelerator SuperOrdinary in 2022, Fanfix has taken off. With over 15 million users and over $100 million in earned payouts to creators, the platform is projected to garner revenue close to $175 million by year's end and is already profitable. Now, with additional investment from LAGO, the company is gearing up to scale even further.

John Habbouch, CFO of SuperOrdinary, added, "In a short time, we have built a business that is not only scaling rapidly but also already profitable and generating positive cash flow. Our partnership with LAGO enables us to accelerate this momentum, making targeted investments that enhance our ability to serve our creators and drive sustainable, profitable growth.

What's Next for Fanfix?
