A new analysis reveals a striking truth about Canadian preferences: the nation is a significant global consumer of adult content on a particular subscription platform. Data indicates Canada ranks as the second-highest spender per capita worldwide.
Canadians demonstrably opened their wallets, collectively spending over $354.8 million on the platform in the last year – a 5.17% increase from the previous year, representing an additional $17.4 million. This substantial figure highlights a consistent demand despite broader economic conditions.
The spending equates to approximately $88,711 for every 10,000 residents, placing Canada closely behind Finland, which led the world with $127,423 per 10,000 residents. Australia followed closely, mirroring Canada’s spending at $88,601.
Beyond the top three, smaller nations showed surprisingly high engagement. The islands of Guernsey and the Isle of Man secured the fourth and fifth positions, respectively, with spending figures of $83,929 and $79,325. These numbers suggest a potentially shifting landscape in personal connection and entertainment.
The United Kingdom, the United States, and Ireland rounded out the top eight, demonstrating consistent demand across Europe and North America. Even smaller countries like Andorra and Slovenia showed significant year-over-year growth in platform spending, with Slovenia experiencing a jump of over 22%.
Within Canada, Vancouver emerged as the city with the highest per capita spending, reaching $144,906. This indicates a particularly engaged user base within the city, despite overall spending not matching larger American metropolitan areas.
However, Toronto’s collective spending power was undeniable. Residents of Toronto contributed nearly $32 million to the platform, surpassing the total spending from all other Canadian cities combined. This demonstrates the significant economic impact of the platform within Canada’s largest city.
The data paints a clear picture of evolving entertainment habits and a willingness to invest in digital content. These figures reveal a substantial and growing market for this type of platform, driven by consistent user engagement and increasing spending.
