Overview

• Itch.io has restored free adult NSFW listings to its platform’s browse and search pages after deindexing them earlier in July.
• The platform is enforcing a new NSFW content warning system that requires creators to tag explicit material and set their projects as free to regain indexing.
• Stripe currently blocks payments for sexually explicit content under banking partner restrictions, although it has indicated possible future support.
• After disabling Stripe on flagged adult pages last week, Itch.io is in active talks with alternative payment processors to support paid NSFW offerings.
• Itch.io plans a gradual reintroduction of paid adult games once payment compliance measures are secured to ensure stable revenue for creators.
