Judge issues court order enabling agencies and creators to continue using OnlyMonster's services, as UK litigation continues
- OnlyMonster welcomes UK Court's decision allowing agencies and content creators to continue using data on its platform
- Industry rival Infloww had sought a far-reaching injunction that would have restricted OnlyMonster's third-party customers' ability to operate commercially
- OnlyMonster denies Infloww's ‘cyber-attack’ accusations and looks forward to vindicating its actions at trial
London, March 5, 2026: A UK court has supported OnlyMonster's efforts to protect the interests of its agency and creator clients, who will now be able to continue using the services provided by the platform to enhance the online paid subscription experience for content creators and their fans.
This decision denied Infloww, a competitor CRM provider, the blanket shutdown it was seeking, which would have hampered the ability of many creator agencies to do business at a crucial time for the fast-growing creator economy. Through this ruling, creator agencies will now be able to maintain access to their proprietary ‘Notes’ and ‘Scripts’ and continue serving the best interests of their clients
OnlyMonster's case is straightforward: that the migration of agency data from Infloww to OnlyMonster was carried out with the agencies' authorisation. OnlyMonster maintains that it has helped agencies migrate data that belongs to them from Infloww to its platform.
Infloww's case is constantly changing. Without notifying OnlyMonster, Infloww initially obtained an injunction at a Without Notice hearing where OnlyMonster were not present, seeking to restrict access to only Notes and Scripts, which Infloww's CEO, Mr Matthew Bruna initially stated to the court was Infloww's “most valuable proprietary data”. After OnlyMonster responded that this data, in fact, belonged to the agencies and creators, Infloww made further allegations that OnlyMonster had also migrated so called 'analytics' and 'reporting' data. OnlyMonster denies this allegation and looks forward to demonstrating at trial that it never took this data.
Mr Justice Saini's judgment, delivered at the UK Commercial Court this week, concluded that the injunction will remain in place on modified terms. The Court accepted OnlyMonster's case that it should be permitted to continue allowing agencies access to Notes and Scripts. In doing so, the Court rejected Mr Bruna's evidence that Notes and Scripts are of “limited importance” to agencies and creators. The Judge was “rather surprised” by Mr Bruna's assertion, given his earlier evidence at the WN [Without Notice] Hearing'. Mr Justice Saini went on to comment that “either the Fan Notes and Scripts are so valuable as to merit protection of the nature now sought by the Claimant [...] or they are not”. Crucially, the Court explicitly recognised the practical and “financial consequences” that agencies would face if access to their own data were interrupted, which could “paralyse” their businesses.
The ruling is concerned only with the scope of the injunction, not with Infloww's underlying allegations. OnlyMonster denies those allegations entirely and looks forward to explaining and justifying its actions at trial.
Separately, the UK court's decision also confirms that OnlyMonster was not responsible for a cyberattack in August/September 2025 targeting Infloww's business and financial records. Infloww, which had earlier filed a “John Doe” complaint in the US Court regarding this attack, confirmed in these proceedings that another party had admitted the attack and that OnlyMonster had no responsibility for it. It has therefore withdrawn its complaint regarding this episode.
Pavlo Kharmanskyi, Co-Owner of OFMS Ltd, one of the co-owners of OnlyMonster, said:
“We are pleased that the UK court has recognised our clients' need to maintain control over their own data. In our view, the injunction sought by Infloww was an attempt to preserve its dwindling market share by suppressing a nimbler and more innovative challenger.”
“Agencies and creators are moving to OnlyMonster because of the superior quality of the service we provide, and no amount of lawfare from Infloww is going to change that. Our priority is our customers, the agencies and the creators. That starts with protecting customers' access to their own business-critical data. Our response to Infloww's legal action reflects that commitment: we will always stand up for our customers' ability to operate without disruption. We remain focused on building best-in-class software for the creator economy, backed by responsive, high-quality customer support.”
“This legal action does not serve the interests of agencies, creators or fans. In fact, it threatens to damage the online paid subscription ecosystem at an important moment in its evolution. We will continue to resist it.”
