MYM Agency Contract: What to Check Before Signing

A MYM agency contract should state how you can leave, what stays confidential, who handles your personal data and logins, who owns your content, and exactly what the agency earns. Those five subjects come from MYM’s own help centre, which says a contract is strongly recommended for any creator working with an agency. MYM separately requires agencies to hold a contract that includes an image-rights release.

MYM is the French subscription platform operated by Air Medias SAS. We read its help centre, its anti-exploitation policy and its creator contract on 30 September 2026. We are an agency ourselves, so weigh our advice against what MYM writes, which we link throughout.

What does MYM tell creators to put in the contract?

MYM says it does not oppose agency support, recommends a written contract, and lists the clauses to cover: exit terms, confidentiality, personal data including your logins, intellectual property and the financial terms. It also suggests talking to other creators who already work with the agency.

That advice sits in a help article updated on 2 September 2026, on working with an agency (in French). The same article says MYM has no partner or certified agencies, so a contract cannot lean on any MYM approval.

What must a MYM agency contract contain for MYM itself?

MYM’s anti-exploitation policy says any agency acting as a creator’s agent must hold a proper contract with that creator, including an image-rights release and an authorisation to distribute, and must sign the policy. The creator contract adds that an agent must declare itself to MYM at support@mym.fans without delay.

On a page aimed at agencies, MYM also says it may ask them for company registration papers, the creator’s own bank details, a contract proving the creator’s consent and age, and a dated selfie of the creator holding a note agreeing to sell content through MYM. None of this shifts responsibility away from you: the contract says the creator remains fully responsible for every action on the account, including those taken by an agent. The policy is published at mym.fans/app/anti-exploitation.

Which clauses matter most, and what does a bad one look like?

Read the clauses that decide money, access and exit first. The table sets out what we would expect to see and what should stop you signing.

Clause	What good looks like	Red flag
Exit	A notice period in days, no fee to leave, access handed back on a set date	No exit clause, a multi-year lock-in, a penalty for leaving
Commission	One percentage, the base it is charged on, invoiced after MYM pays you	“Depends on the month”, a rate given only on a call, undefined deductions
Payouts	MYM pays a bank account in your name, as it requires	The agency’s IBAN on your account, or all income forwarded to the agency first
Logins and access	The access method written down; your email, phone and SMS code stay with you	A password requested over chat, or the agency changing your email or phone
Personal data	What the agency holds, where, and deletion when you leave	No data clause at all
Confidentiality	Mutual, covering your legal name, address and earnings	One-sided, protecting only the agency
Content and IP	You keep ownership; the agency’s use is limited to running the account and ends with the contract	All rights assigned to the agency, or rights that survive the exit
Image-rights release	Limited to distribution on MYM for the contract term	Open-ended use, on any platform, for any period
Declaration to MYM	The agency confirms it has declared itself to support@mym.fans	A request to keep the agency hidden from MYM
Upfront costs	None	Setup fee, content package or paid training

How should the money clause be written?

It should name one rate and the figure that rate applies to. On MYM the difference between gross and net is large, because VAT, bank fees and MYM’s commission all come off before you are paid.

Take MYM’s own example: €100 of media sold to a fan in France. The fan pays €120 with VAT, and after 7% bank fees and MYM’s 20%, the creator receives €73.28. A hypothetical 30% agency commission is €36 if charged on the €120, €30 on the €100 pre-VAT price, and €21.98 on the €73.28 you actually receive. Those are our sums. A contract that says “gross” or “net” without defining it could mean any of the three. Our page on what MYM agencies charge collects the rates agencies publish.

What should the contract say about logins?

It should name how the agency reaches your messages, and keep your password, email and phone number with you. MYM’s terms treat anything done with your credentials as done by you.

The creator contract calls your credentials personal and confidential. The terms of use let MYM delete an account whose credentials are used against their purpose, and say MYM is not liable if an agent misuses them. MYM’s help centre states it will never ask for your password, recommends SMS two-factor authentication, and names Infloww as its only official CRM partner, pitched as a way to let someone chat for you without handing over the password. The documents do not ban an agent from working on the account; they put the risk on the creator. With us, the access method is agreed in writing before we start.

What else should you ask before you sign?

Ask who you are contracting with and how to reach creators who already work with them. A company name, a registration number and an address you can check are the minimum.

Then compare what you are told with what is written. If a promise matters to you, such as the notice period or the rate, it belongs in the document. Our guide to MYM agency scams lists the warning signs we found across agency websites, and our pricing page shows how we put our own terms in writing.
