I am sure this was mentioned before, but the search function kept telling me it was not. What is the official cut off time for a "workday" on Streamate?
Also what time zone would it be(EST,CST,etc)? On daily pay with Boleyn and wanted to know.

Official cut-off time is midnight UCT. It may slide by 1 hour relative to your time zone in the summer, depending on whether your timezone does summer time. (UCT itself doesn't change.)

But! If you're with Boleyn, as far as I understand Katy & Co check the earnings for each model some time in the morning US time, and have to do it manually. So if you're in the US, you get whatever you made since the previous morning, independent of SM's "day".


Starting on cam tomorrow and I am scared shitless!

Good luck! Just remember not to do anything before they've tipped you or taken you private, make sure you can tell a real tip from a fake one, don't let them rush you, and watch your hydration levels. Everything else will come.

if you are in the non-nude category, Streamate says that is the only category you can be in. When I went back to change, I didn't see any other categories to be in...like BBW,or Mature. Do they pull that from your description?
They automatically select your categories based on your info. When you select non-nude they pull you out of other categories which means less traffic. If you want to be non-nude your best bet is to not select the category and just gear your headline, profile, room topic, and preset messages towards non-nude. Also its kind of pointless to be in that category because guys will still ask can I see your tits, can you suck my cock, can you fuck your pussy, etc. Mine as well get more traffic if you still gotta deal with their fuck-shit of not reading and playing 21 questions.

I don't know, I get tons of guys coming into my room, but they never stay, so they aren't quality guys for me. Although, I'm a niche, which is why I make a ton less than you gals make. I was shocked to hear you guys can pull in $300 a shift. I'm lucky if I make $50-100 :(

I've also started to notice recently that there's more guys talking sex (I don't allow sex talk in my room unless they pay me gold or of course take me pvt) and/or expecting freebies than there have been since I started with SM 1.5 years ago :(Try raising your rates a little bit. If you're not paying for advertising (I'm not), quality customers will pay the extra and they're more likely to come back than those who go for the cheaper option. Mention more fetishes you can do on your profile. It's slow for me too at the moment, but the whales are there, keep going <3

I have been waiting for my account to be approved for almost 2 weeks. Way longer than 5 business days. I emailed Liz, just wondering if she is still the right person to contact for help?

I am not new to camming but I took a couple years off to strip, and I am so burnt out on stripping. I had some dominatrix custies in the club and decided I want to do it full time (session and online). I am also not new to stripperweb, so hello! :)

I was waiting until I got approved to introduce myself but they are taking forever. :(

Should I just make a new account?

EDIT: NVM Liz hooked it up! Yay! She responded ASAP and got my account approved! Woohoo! Hello everyone! Lol.

Hello, future fellow cam girls :shy:

I've been researching a lot about camming for the past 6 months and I've decided to try it out. I'll be enrolling in college this year and I'm thinking of camming as a great job for earning money while in school.
I'm planning on joining SM by the end of this year (I've read that SM is the best site for beginners) and then, when I gain a fair amount of experience, add Skype sites and MFC into the mix. I'm also planning on selling videos and pic sets. Yes, I'm planning on taking this job pretty seriously because I want to make the best of it. :slaphappy

My question is regarding payment percentage, I'm aware of tiers but not sure where my country belongs.
I've read that tier I includes US, CA, UK and some EU countries. I live in Croatia.

So, if anybody knows in which tier does Croatia belong, I would be very grateful if you could share that information with me.
Thank you in advance for any help and information you may provide! :heartbeat

So Croatia is in Eastern Europe, right? I think EE girls get a 30% cut.

I had my first show on Streammate today. I was only on for 30 minutes and I only had 1 person on there with me. He was nice and chatting. I switched out of the non nude category and am trying again tonight . I'm going to watch some other models because I need a gameplan

Hello Everyone, my name is Ashlee. I am a 19 year old, 5'4 black girl from maryland and i am also a webcammer on streamates.
i am also a college student.
After reading alot of forums on here, i decided to make my own account.

I started working on streamates 4 weeks ago. My first week, i made $32 for the entire week. My Second week, i made $53 for the entire week. My third week, I made $47 for the entire week. i would say every week i would work around 14-15 hours per week.
I wear thongs on my shows, and i play with dildos and oil myself up with baby oil to be sexy. i am very active on my shows and i entertain all my guests. I have never had more than about 6 people in my room at a time.
Throughout those 3 weeks, i made my rate 2.99 for private and exclusive. Now, I made my private $3.84 for private and $4.49 for exclusive.

I even turned on block sessions, which means a customer can buy 15 minutes of a private session with me for 5% off, or 30 minutes for 10% off. None of my customers have bought a block session yet.

This week, I decided to work 20 hours to see if that makes a difference.

I have seen models on here say that they make $200 in a week, or sometimes even $50 per day, on streamates. Can someone please explain to me what i am doing wrong?

Also, realistically speaking, how much do you make webcamming per week? and how long have you been doing it? (PLEASE do not say "oh it depends on different factors" just be honest) and how much did you make when you first started? what is our rates for private and exclusive? and is there any other websites that I can get more money webcamming that you know about?

We have several models that make over $1000/day and several that are comfortable making $10-$20/day as a hobby. There aren't any sites we know that make more money than Streamate ON AVERAGE for new models, and this is the sole reason we push SM so hard in our own program - if the model makes no money, we don't make money (actually...nobody makes money). There are always outliers though that can bank anywhere, and certain sites do fit better with certain personality types. SM is "jack of all trades and master of none" so far as that goes. Heavy "type A" personalities may do better mixing in token sites, while introverts may do better building their fan base in the 1 on 1 world of Skype listings.

You will make more if you diversify a bit with your time, but not too much diversification or you'll be burning too many candles and get nowhere. For that, we recommend getting at least one Skype listing site in the mix. You can book Skype shows while working Streamate and then pause or turn off SM once a Skype client has paid for a show (don't cross-advertise though, i.e. mention Skype on your Streamate show or direct Skype clients to your SM room, that's a career-ending thing).

Your prices are slightly low but not unworkable, and rarely do they have much to do with how busy you are. What matters more are personality and cam quality. If you're not using the encoder, your placement will be tanked. If your equipment isn't good enough for the encoder, that's another issue. If you're sitting there bored or huffing and puffing and looking like a deer in headlights - for hours on end - that rarely works out well either.

The reason we say "it depends on different factors" to most girls is because its true. We are not just trying to be polite and not say "forget it. Clearly your to ugly to do this. Quit now!" Even ugly can bank on SM cause guys want such a wide array of looks and personalities anyone can make money.

When I first started camming I dont know how many hours I put in but it was at least 40 to 60 a week. I now put in more then 20 but normally less then 30 and I live a fairly lush lifestyle from it. I would say push your hours up. Push you per min rate up a little more and learn about how to close a sale. I think a lot of times new girls (myself included) dont know how to ask for that sale. Its okay to ask guys to "come play" "go private" etc. so do it.

Also everything everything Katy said above. She knows her stuff.

Try running your GS when your close to the hour or closing in on the half hour. I rarely get a GS going from 0 to 20 mins and never from 31 to about 45min on the hour.

Also if your going to offer them keep offering them. Especially when its slow. I get a lot of shows after failed GS. Dont be afraid to ask guys to tip more or spoil you to get the show going. Most of my GS's start because I have a high tipper or a couple high tippers making it happen.

Because I shouldn't have to pay to receive my own money. Payoneer at the time was like $4 for DD, plus monthly and ATM fees, i was paying for wires but again, why should I be giving SM $160 A month for transfers? Paxum outside of their yearly fee is free. Also, I do my own DD once it gets on my paxum card by doing a credit card cash advance from my paxum card to my bank account, so I avoid atm fees with paxum too.

I agree, but I never said wire transfer, I said direct deposit which is totally free.

Unless you aren't in the US, than your only option is Payoneer or wire transfer. You didn't specify.

Don't make your notes in excel. Just the sm profile. Highlight the guy as soon as he comes in and then open it and make a note.Sure some guys are fast in and out but I catch them once in awhile. Also if you get someone coming in and think you might want to ban them just hit the ban button and it will ask do you want to. Stay with that window open until you decide yay or nay.You can't ban them after they leave unless they sent you an sm email. You can block from mail. Just open the profile. But that doesn't help with 99% of them.

I prefer Excel, as I have everyone from all sites on there.

I guess most of you guys don't get tons of guys coming in for literally 1 sec like I do.

But I finally figured out where the ID number is LOL so I'm trying to open that window now when their name is a common name, but it's still hard.

I never go into that profile area unless I'm seeing if he rated me so I didn't know it was in there & of course SM is too stupid to tell me where it is.

So even if the ban window is open, but they leave it won't work, right?

That's the one thing I love about MFC, you can ban whenever even when they are long gone. ALL sites should be that way. CB JUST came out with the ban feature. How many years did it take them to do that?

RIDICULOUS.

Here are some examples, from my earnings report and inbox.

4759447595

Also, I was wrong about those numbers being on their profiles. I just clicked one and it's not actually listed anywhere on the user's profile itself, but you can find it in the URL of the individual profile tab.

Edit: here's a screenshot.

47596

Sorry, I didn't notice, but I found it myself when I clicked on that icon. I still can't believe the models know more than customer service. NUTS!!!

Thanks :)

Yeah, unfortunately for quick peepers like that I don't think there's anything we can do other than try to catch them in the moment.

I really don't understand why there isn't a direct ban/block button on the profiles themselves. We can only "report" the user from the profile page. Yet we can block anyone who has messaged us directly from the inbox. It makes no sense.

Well first it's b/c these sites are run by asshole men & no I don't hate men, but I do detest men who don't respect the women who make them MILLIONS.

They don't want us to ban guys. They want to force us to have to deal with assholes.

On Red Light I spoke to one of the CS guys there & he literally told me that I should put up with FREELOADERS & try to convince them to pay. LOL

The same thing on IM Live. They clearly have no clue what girls go thru & that 99% of all freeloaders will NEVER become a paying customer (at least that's my experience.) In this entire time I've been working only 2-3 guys have ever become paying customers when they either had a free or guest account.

On IMLive they rank us based on how attentive you are & I assume the guys can push a button that says if they found you attentive.

I'm ALWAYS attentive unless I can tell or know the guy is a freeloader (or he's an asshole which is rare for me.) Since 99.9% of them are FREELOADERS on IM Live, I'm constantly banning. So why have that rating for girls knowing full well either the girl is going to be stressed or the site is forcing us to put up with assholes who want freebies.

Also, the rate in which a guy expects me to response (under 1-2 seconds - read that I said SECONDS, not minutes) is ridiculous. There are times I can be typing out my response & they are gone. I have way more of a problem on SM than on IM Live, but this topic pertains to attentiveness.

So my point after my rant LOL is that they never built in the ban into the site. Either they are idiots & didn't think of it which I find hard to believe that every site except for MFC didn't think about this feature, or they just want to force us to live in hell.

Just like they lie to the guys & tell them we work for free (that's all of their marketing PLOY). Why do you think they come into the room & expect freebies?

Only one site that I know of encourages them to pay the model. Every other site advertises they can talk to us for free or see free shows or something.

Try raising your rates a little bit. If you're not paying for advertising (I'm not), quality customers will pay the extra and they're more likely to come back than those who go for the cheaper option. Mention more fetishes you can do on your profile. It's slow for me too at the moment, but the whales are there, keep going <3

Well I just raised my rate to $5+ a few weeks ago, but then I thought maybe that's why I'm not getting any sessions. :(

I'd rather be busy & make less money than sit there like an idiot. Then I get upset, stressed & worried & that's no good for anyone.

I have fetishes mentioned in my profile. Am I supposed to use the # sign before the word?

I think we should take a poll (can you do polls on this site?) on who is dead right now. :)

Thanks

So I forgot to launch this encoder today & when I did, my Pandora volume dropped. :(

Does anyone know why that is?

Also, just to confirm I can split cam & it really WILL make my vid cleaner?

Its a setting in the windows system that's causing the volume to lower.

I have always felt like the "force" me to be online longer than I want to be. Probably b/c they wouldn't have anyone online if we could just make our $$ and leave. I did this so I could make $$$ and have a life. Not so I could make $ and work a regular 40 hours. If they can ration your traffic, and my guess is they can then this is what I feel is going on. Because I have been there many times when it's "working right" and it's no problem to make $$$$.

I feel like they do this to me too. Along with the 'server' theory already mentioned in this topic. Next week I am with SM for a year. I make 450$/week on average. 10% paid. Is that normal or....? Sometimes I have a feeling like they put me on a bad server.

I just wanna know what I am doing wrong. Is it my accent, clothing, facial expressions.... I wish an experienced model could look at my stream and tell me what I am doing wrong xD

i do think that too sometimes - that they have thier favorites that they make sure get put on good servers when they log in . when things are shitty and the site is messing up they are still somehow having their room flooded with ppl still and theyre in back to back pvt like nothing is wrong .

Babe, you are always showing up on page 1, somewhere on row 3 for me. So at least while watching sm from my country you have worked yourself up to great placement
You can try if a random member in your chat, or a reg (if he takes you out of his favs first and after checking ads you back) can check how your placement is when being in the USA or another country (I am not USA based)

PS you are at row 2 right now! =)
(dont know if you can see it youreself, bec of geoblock)

AuroraJade
03-08-2017, 09:11 AM
I use geopeeker.com to check my USA placement, its quite decent, halfway on page one. I can see myself now because I turned off geo block , it fucked with my earnings too much.

I had this placement when I started. I have the fastest internet available , solid 5 stars and a monster PC. So it feels wrong for me to say that I worked for my placement :P

03-08-2017, 10:21 AM
I have the same pretty much. But they still put me below the fold now and have been for a while. I used to be on row 2. But on my computer my placement is many rows below that. My stats are great and I have a perfect 5.0 rating. And when I'm on I dont make much money anymore. I dont understand it.

I haven't cammed in like 4 years and I just did a small 20 minute show to dip my toes back in. I have been a stripper for 3 years why am I so nervous!!! lol

I had traffic coming to my room but like I didn't really know what to say?? I feel like a baby stripper again!! lol and not in the fun way.

It is also funny to me that no matter the avenue of sex work their will always be beggers lol

I agree, but I never said wire transfer, I said direct deposit which is totally free.

Unless you aren't in the US, than your only option is Payoneer or wire transfer. You didn't specify.

Umm I've been on SM for like 5 years. Please point everyone in the direction of FREE direct depisit. I'll wait.

^^ Well, Firstchoice Pay Global Bank Transfer is practically free. I only pay $1.50 every time it's deposited. For US girls, I think this is the best option. I've had it for over 4 years and never had any issues.

But isn't that basically payoneer which is what I mentioned before? When I received it it was $4. $1.50 still isn't free and your still have to pay the monthly fees with payoneer/1st choice or whomever. She's talking like SM directly places money in your account FREE which isn't an option.

For me it makes more sense that I get paid on the day payment arrives which is Friday. I don't want to wait more than I have to for a deposit, or pay much of anything be it $1.50 or $30. $1.50×52 Is $78 a year, paxum is like $49 a year plus I get paid every Friday and I also receive pay from 3 other companies, that's more of s bargain to me.

I did 30 minutes worth of privates tonight and broke $100. I know this isn't particularly amazing to some of u awesome cam girls, but this is doing way more for me than stripping right now and I didn't even have to get groped! Yay!

I think the best advice I followed here was to charge high rates. When I first tried camming at 19 my rates were way too low, no wonder I got burnt out!

I am mostly celebrating because I had a crazy amount of anxiety before camming, it should be easier to get on cam now!

were all on different levels . two weeks ago i came back on after 2 years off the first week i came back on i made 360 in 4.5 days working tuesday thru cut off. before i always made high 100s low 200s about 2.5 years ago there was a long period of time i used to struggle just to make payout and break 100 for the week so i could get via payoneer. ever since i went back on ive been making 70 to about 100 a day now tuesday i made 120 witch is my record high aside from one new years eve i worked and i made 130 . but ive made a lot of changes in the way i work too witch is helping. not giving up when i start off slow after two hours going on even if i wasnt in the mood because everyone else said it was slow i go on and try anyway and always make at least 70 . theres other changes too but i dont want to write a novel lol. ive been on and off sm going into my 5th year now this month i should be at a higher earning level but i often take weeks or months off and come back too witch doesnt help but when im making as much as i am now (witch isnt much to most other ppl i know) motivation is high to keep the flow going .

Definitely not free, I'm also wondering if it's a studio doing that. I think most don't know (and firstchoice/payoneer probably wont volunteer this info) you can get away with not even ordering or using their card so there will be no fees if you opt out of card loads and only have it sent to the bank. If you do that it only ever costs $1.50 per paycheck. Only down side is I have to wait till Tuesday for my pay instead of getting it Friday.

The card fees are ridiculous and I would never use the card at all if I didn't have a few passive income sites that don't offer bank deposits through them.


Streamate is such a huge profitable site though and I cannot understand why they don't offer free direct deposit without having to go through a third party. Other sites do!

yeah i dont get it either the only reason i was still using my payoneer account at all before i got set up with paxum was because it was the only egg i had that didnt offer it - everything else was set for direct desposit and i had my payoner linked to my bank account
