Hey Erika, thank you for your time. I took your suggestion and read up through the thread briefly but didn’t find anything in the last 5 pages.
Just so I am understanding this correctly. When you log in, the highlighted paragraph on the bottom is the revised version of the one above?
Performer/Studio will upload and transmit content in the form of images, video, sounds, and/or text (referred to herein as "content") to and through Streamate's systems for re-broadcast. All content uploaded to the systems by Performer/Studio shall be works made for hire under the United States Copyright Act, as amended, to the extent eligible; otherwise, Performer/Studio hereby assigns all rights, title and interests in such content to Streamate. Streamate shall then own all such content, and Streamate will have the sole discretion to use any such content in any way it so chooses, including but not limited to in any medium and in any promotion, distribution, advertising, sales and marketing efforts, both during and after the term of this Agreement.
Performer/Studio covenants and agrees that Performer/Studio shall not directly or indirectly bring any action or claim against Streamate, its related entities, successors and assigns for copyright, trademark, service mark or trade dress infringement. Performer/Studio grants to Streamate, its related entities, successors and assigns the perpetual, irrevocable, fully paid, royalty-free, universal and unconditional right to use, portray, publish, copy, distribute, and display Performer/Studio's identity, name, fictional names (if any), voice, signature, photograph, words, images, personality or other likeness, in whole or in part, for advertising, distribution, marketing, promotion, publicity, and sales purposes. Performer/Studio warrants that any content that Performer/Studio delivers via Streamate's systems will not cause any damage to Streamate's systems and will not violate any applicable laws, rules, regulations or public policies that may govern the content so delivered.
Notice it’s says nothing about fictional names. I also don’t see the words “royalty free” or “identity” in the original version either. Nor “perpetual” or “irrevocable.” I’m sure this has to do with payment verification lol.
There’s no copyright protection in the updated version. Can you find that tricky word “otherwise” that is missing out of the updated version also? And the text that surrounds it?
Both of those underlined sections are “trying” to say the same thing. But one of them uses a lot more big words ;)
I appreciate your time, thank you again. This is my only site I work on as well. So I get it. And thank you to Streamate! I truly do appreciate everything that happens on the back-end that no one ever sees so the checks show up on time for us! :peace:

I've just signed up for streamate as a 2nd site, just wondering what prices people would recommend for private and exclusive shows for a newbie?
Also, regarding gold shows, how do you set them up?
Thank you
Try a search on the forum? It’s not personal, but not a lot of girls will help you because your competition. There’s plenty of information on here. I’ll tell you what I found. It’s trial and error. Try raising your rates and if you make more than you’re good if you start making less than lower them again. I know it sucks being new. After you have been around for awhile girls will be more inclined to answer questions.
Go to streammate and they have info for new models.
I know I just started cause of covid 19. Sucks. Steammate has a lot of how to stuff for models if you search their website. Good luck

Hi all.
Went to log into Streamate just now and it appears they've closed my account. I don't know why or what to do, Any ideas? I have been camming on there for years now and I currently have no other source of income.
Thanks

Is it a new thing that members can send a message with gold attached?
I’ve had a message after a show saying a member sent X Gold to say thank you for the show, but never just a random message with gold attached.
On this note, is it unreasonable to charge an unblock fee if I’ve blocked someone for repeated offences and he’s messaged me asking to be unblocked? Lol

They have been able to send offline tips for quite awhile but I think it only works from mobile.
I don't think it's unreasonable to ask for an unblock fee. They need to pay for their douchebaggery if they want to get back into your good graces.

I've just signed up for streamate as a 2nd site, just wondering what prices people would recommend for private and exclusive shows for a newbie?

Thank you
I would reccommend not going below 4.99 just bec there are prerecorded videos going around on streamate, of performers who are not live (with a moderator at times typing while they are playing this prerecorded thing... the models obviously never talk, and there is always background music or silence insteads of actual talking.... also a sign that I would rate a live model over those prerecorded ones bec one of the biggest selling points is of course live interaction of which a high selling point is use of voice).
These videos going in a loop charge 4.99 a minute as far as I know, and I would certainly hope that models being live and interacting for real would at least earn the same.
It also shows me that this is prob a price point were customers arent to picky yet (since they pay bots this price and the bots even have returning costumers sometimes, seeying their reviews on the profiles) and were the profiles earn most.
Also when you start of low it is more difficult, if you want to, to raise them; you will have to be willing to be very patience and build up a whole new customer base when you go from 1.99 to lets say 6.99 in the future.... because some of your earlier customerbase are not able or willing to pay the new price
So def dont be afraid to start of with 4.99 pvt, and if you dont like the volume of clients it brings you can always lower and play around with your rates to figure out what suits you best.
I would advice to try to have the patience to build up a customer base in the pricepoint YOU want to have them. Think about your cut and what it will fe bring you when you have a certain exclusive price and someone will book 30 minutes. What do you want to earn? what do you want to provide and what endresult money wise will you be happy with? If you are happy with the pricecap at 90 per half hour fe than it would fit to ask 10 a minutes for excl
Also dont be afraid to ask double the price for exclusive opposed to private price. people are willing to pay a high amount for exclusive, and if they wont; they can go pvt. A lot of costumers going exclusive are either fetish clients (for me) or people who like something very specific, people who want to spoil you, or simply dont want to share you.... In all cases it means $ and they will prob be willing to spend accordingly (in my opinion)

I have emailed Vanessa twice now regarding gold shows and had no response whatsoever. I’m going to try again this week but I’m not holding my breath. I thought she was supposed to respond reasonably quickly.

wtf so whats up with gold shows? they're paying and if they dont hit the goal you get $0000??? WTF

BTW, stay safe everyone. We're lucky to have a stay at home job rn.

Yep this has been discussed quite a few times. I only remember because I was one of the models discussing it when it was brought up again. It was back in 2014 (I feel old lmao). Here's where the posted started. I think the discussion ends around page 507.

Screenshot from the discussion in 2014. So if its in the 2014 version, you can bet on it that it was in all the updated contracts afterwards (and maybe even before in different wording, who knows?)

I see nothing in my profile page (looking as an invisible guest) regarding fan-clubs, i dont know what members see but i stopped promoting fan-club subscription in my room topic cause i feel there is no option to join but then again, why do we have it?!
Traffic is terrible this week, sunday was dead for me, last nite i barely made something and today it seems to be very dead again; i am scared. ETA: (for soo many reasons including i wont make money anymore and this new virus spreading like crazy).

Just had an exclusive show not show up in my earnings. From what you ladies have said, hopefully it will show up in a few hours. I did take screenshots that show that the user took me to paid chat but there didn't appear to be a way to show how long the show lasted so I have no way of knowing if I'm being compensated accurately. Hopefully everything works out.

I got booted from Streamate and when I logged back on, my Gold Show option was gone.
I have no E-Mails or messages from Streamate. I use SMConnect and stream with SMBroadcast external encoder because of the audio glitch when I use the built in Encoder.
Has anyone else lost their Gold Show option in the past hour too?

I think lag is happening to everyone. Maybe they'll take the site offline soon to do a reset. That might fix some of these issues.

i was curious about fan-clubs too. was debating on creating one but thought i would try to see if other models had it on their profiles but did not see anything of the sort!
Thought i would look into it seeing yesterday was a serious ghost town. i haven't seen non existent traffic like that in a very very long time!!

Well shit, I just emailed Liz. I emailed support yesterday but it sounds like they won't be getting back to me for a while. This show was with a new customer who tipped me 75 gold while in exclusive so he seems like he'll be a future big spender for me and I'm anxious to know how much I made from the show.
Edit: The two tips of 25 gold and 50 gold showed up right away, but not the actual show.

03-25-2020, 01:24 PM
I heard back fro support saying that some customers "dont qualify" to subscribe to fan clubs. Not sure if its a spending issue because one of the guys who spent a lot of moey on me couldnt subscribe either. No word on what their "criteria" is.
I have a feeling they're promoting the new girls since so many girls are signing up now due to this virus bs. Thanks srteamate for the love. Just screw the ones who have been around a long time right?
