once you've saved, do you then go out of the settings box and just press on the gold show button?

OMFG thank you I think my problem was trying to do it while streaming instead of stop stream, setting it up and then Xing out, and it wasn't appearing at all !! Got it now wow

Hi, I have a problem. When I want to start streaming I get a pop up saying "Please copy and paste the Streaming URL and Streaming Key values into your external encoder and begin streaming." with Streaming URL and key. Where do I have to copy these? I don't understand. What is external encoder and where do I find it to paste their shitty codes lol?

Has anyone else had issues with the "Know Your Customer" requirments? My account was approved yesterday, but I'm still getting this issue and my payments are on hold? I think it's because my account name doesn't fully match my ID, but I've not had issues with this when verifying for any other sites?

I contacted support and they said they'd respond within 48 hours, but it's now been about 44 hours so? I'm not sure what to do here, I don't want to stream if I can't get paid

i am being forced into using smconnect now that sm is phasing out smbroadcast at the end of this month. its not that awful but i can't figure out how to block people who have already left my room. i was able to do this with the flash streaming page no problem if i had them selected and they left paid chat early for example. how do i block the flashers in paid chat now using smconnect?

This method works:


There is no ban feature on the new feature but you can use it to open up their user profile to get their userid (uid) and use that to ban them.

Just open up their user profile and copy this number as seen in my screenshot:

52423

then use this string:

https://www.streamatemodels.com/flash/blockmember.php?uid=17194681

and change the end where it says uid=(number) to the number in the user profile as shown in my screenshot. You can ban them from messaging, and go back into your blocked list, and click to 'block from chat' then save.

Sure its a few hoops, but you can definitely use it to ban the trolls or idiots that come by and say stuff then dip right away cause you have access to their UID now after they leave.

Hope that makes sense!

I’m not sure the above method will work anymore, after June. That link is flash based and they are getting ready to remove all flash “options”. As for SMC, there is no new solution to block guys that abuse free time. It used to be with the Sm encoder (flash platform), where you would just press block on an user and keep that window open.
When you try to do that on SMC, he goes straight to the black list, there is no additional question or pop up window.

And that feature with users that show up in your room after they left is trash, poorly thought out.

lol after a total of 13 hours streaming on SM I've already had a customer from the club recognize me :eyebrow: He said he came across me on redtube livechat. Is there any way to prevent myself from appearing on sites like this? I don't currently have geoblock enabled. I knew it was just a matter of time before someone recognized me, but I didn't think it'd happen so soon!

Girl this is soooo weird! i have not seen that home page for like 2 years. I am using chrome and I go to the URL Streamate.com but this is not what I see at all!! Where you see the number I see "All Girls Cams" I used to see this home page but it has been changed for a very very long time. What URL are you using?

theres not a huge amount - there was maybe 4-6 when I streamed yesterday - but theyre all at the very top then a mix of countries after - like its giving priority placement to british girls then showing everyone else after

Where you see the number I see "All Girls Cams" I used to see this home page but it has been changed for a very very long time. What URL are you using?

The URL is exactly www.streamate.com and i see all the numbers, i see them with Chrome, Firefox and Puffin browser as well but i need to pay for Puffin so i can see my placement how americans see it lol.
What i dont understand here is, why on the left side menu where it says "All live cams" it shows 2554 models online and the bigger number above the picture says 2634?!
Maybe the difference is models with geoblock on that the site still counts and show the total number as 2634?!
53198

Depending on the country u access the site from, u will see first the models in ur region then the rest so placement is based on the area the member accesses the site from therefore british guys will see 1st british models same like americans will see 1st american models all combined with models from other regions, it's a mix of models that depends on model's rank on the site, very popular models at the top will show 1st to everyone, that's how i understand things regarding placement.

Hi all. Liz here :-)

You'll of course be paid once KYC is approved - accounts are reviewed for KYC once an invoice to be paid is created - so they see "Oh this person needs to be paid, review/approve KYC". We are updating the messaging to make this more clear, but know that your documents will be reviewed in time for payment. :-)

This is coming :-) We're phasing out the old streaming page because flash will no longer be supported - but we're working on more features for smconnect to give you an awesome streaming experience :-)

Redtubelive is one of hundreds of white labels of Streamate. You can't get around not appearing on them at all because they all effectively show whatever is happening on Streamate.

But in general by geoblocking you won't be listed on streamate or any white label sites to anyone browsing without an account. You'll only be shown if someone is logged in and not in your geoblock area ( and even then nothing is guaranteed -if the guy is using a VPN for example, it won't matter. Also sometimes when a guy is using mobile, the geoblock is faulty and unreliable.) Also be aware, SM and white label sites are allowed to record and upload your shows for "promotional" purposes - the only way to prevent this is to have geoblock enabled.

So, I'm on my first session, I've been on for about an hour and not made any money. Is it normal to have an influx of guys trying to solicit me?? Is there a way to report them for that? Right now I'm just blocking/kicking them. But when I got to report (using smconnect) soliciation isn't a reason for reporting?

any time I feel the need to report someone for breaking a rule on the site, i just use the "member is abusive" reason in the drop down menu, then explain further in the explanation box below it.

Unfortunately they exist and they affect me in all ways, they affect my ranking on site, the money i make and the traffic i (dont) get; a little while ago i complained about non BBW cammers in the BBW section, i realized they change body type just to fit in there where they dont belong, it's clear as day the models are slim (not even curvy) and some of them get in there just during contests so they appear at the top of the BBW category for more exposure.
I was advised to report these models but what chances do i have to be taken into consideration when they popular top earners and bring in the money for the site while i am a nobody on SM?!
Maybe Liz reads this here and takes some action? I hope :)

Even if models show in a different category, I’m sure most of users just move on until they find somebody that truly fits.

If somebody muscular, ripped, or slim, petite labels herself as BBW, she does in fact do herself a disservice. No BBW lover is interested in those totally different body types, actually most of them are def turned off from my experience. 99% of my haters will mock my body type and praise the absolute opposite of it.
So theoretically, they might show up higher in a category, practically that “boost” of traffic can’t be converted, due to user’s preferences. In the end, doesn’t matter how many users you have in your room, if none of them are interested. What matters is your conversion rate (visitors vs paying customers).

KatM
06-17-2020, 05:02 PM
^^^ I agree with all u say still i dont get it, why do they do it if nothing good comes from it?
There is a reason for the change especially during contests.
Sometimes men dont care much about the body type if the girl is hot, i had guys coming to me saying "i am not specifically into BBW's but u are very hot and i like u" and took me to pvt or tipped me nicely.

ETA:
I looked closer and many are studio girls from Eastern Europe (i see the same room setup and style), i guess their bosses do the settings of these girls accounts. Well, as i said, there is a reasoning behind this.

I wonder how profitable these contests are if they run another 5 days contest again..... i guess some models really bring in the big money if SM keeps running contest after contest. I cant get used to them simply.

I’ve always wondered how the very top earners can make so much per month or even week, mostly just because the site has such tiny traffic compared to the big token sites like Cb & mfc— I just checked some of the girls in the first page and even in the first row they all had under 10 viewers. The highest viewer count I’ve ever seen was maybe 25 but that was a few months ago.

Traffic is usually down like 90% for me during contests, maybe I’m exaggerating but it feels that way. I suspect SM must mess with site placement because during contests it’s like suddenly all my regulars disappear and I only get usernames I’ve never seen before trickling in and out one at a time. I don’t even get a chance to participate because the traffic is simply not there to begin with.

yesss mind reader! i am also curious what the top earners or front rows are earning per week on SM.
its so inspiring to me.
for me its more about the quality of the clients they attract rather than the quantity.
i sit on sm with 10 people in my room and no shows. but sometimes when i just have 3 or 4 i convert them into shows quickly.
i havent seen much of a different with contests.. but knock on wood.

i would love to know a tad about top earners just to inspire me... !

I think I remember reading much earlier in the thread that $1000+ a day gets you in the area of the top 200, assuming that's net so $3k gross. I'm sorry I don't know how up to date this is and there are just too many pages to scroll through.

This is coming :-) We're phasing out the old streaming page because flash will no longer be supported - but we're working on more features for smconnect to give you an awesome streaming experience :-)

Neat! It's only taken A LITERAL DECADE to add something so simple.

I'm pretty sure drinking during your stream is against site rules. You might want to double-check the code of conduct just to be safe.

Quality is everything, but if SM even got 1/4 the traffic as tokens sites then there would be a much greater earning potential. Just baffling that on a site with little traffic and a 35% payout that girls can make boatloads I've heard. I wonder if they must work a ton of hours? Cuz my rates are probably higher than average at 8.99/13.99 so you'd think anyone with lower rates would have to put in more hours... ? :shrug:

I don't think the girls in the top 2 rows necessarily make the most since I think the front page looks different for everyone based on members preferences. I've been in the top few rows and even row 1 once but I'm definitely not raking in $10,000/week, I was just pointing out that even in those first couple rows of the front page there is still not much traffic. Today I checked again and it was all under 10, except for one room--17.

Obviously its not only about rates only, but also about % paid chat and how many members inside pvt at once, or your Goldshowskills.
Girls can earn that much bec streamate still has quality traffic, aka members willing to spend big money per session/minute/tip

Yes, it has less traffic than mfc, or chaturbate, kinda obvipus i think given that sm is a pay to play site and not a token site

When in a good camflow its possible for me to pull 150 steady a hour on streamate, even chance of going up to 300 (And this is without huge tributes, just normal tributes here and there, pvt/excl based) a hour (no clue if i could get this steady though, havent been streaming a lot on sm lately). Not at that space right now bec I took of a full year , was only focussing on indy shows.

Potential is there.... And I think with every very high top earner comes the same: hard work and putting in a lot of hours in a timeframe were they have the most money potential... noone gets filthy rich by putting in only a couple of hours a day

Its all about regs and building up a steady customer base. Steady hours online always help with this, and yes more houres , and no huge loss of stamina= more money

I didn't mean to sound like I was dissing SM. I love that SM is private based, I started out on token sites so the fact that there is less traffic ultimately means a lot less freeloaders and more customers ready to pay for tailored shows-- more paying traffic. I've had some nights where I make $150+/hr but usually my weekly paycheck average is $80-$100/hr. Not bad but not top earner status if they are making 5 figures a week. I usually work ~10, maybe 15 hours max a week if I am really motivated. I am also only semi-nude, don't do cumshows or gold shows so that is probably a major disadvantage for me personally.

With the 35% payout, I'd have to get 287 gold just to get $100 my cut. Maybe I'm doing SM wrong since I don't use the Lush, but the bulk of my earnings are from straight exclusives. Any big tips I've received are from findom guys, but it's still sad to see their 50 and 100 gold tips only get me $17 and $35. I dream of the day SM might increase their payout to 65% like other sites!

Oh no, its all fine!
I think you might give yourself a hard time by turning it around and thinking about how much you need to make to earn a certain a amount. For me that would make it feel harder to reach. Just think about the unlimited potential


And maybe this screenshot helps53202
A top earner from streamate posted this online on open source. I took out her name, so i hope its ok to post this. (Not own screenshot, so i hope i dont get myself in trouble posting this)

Dont worry about the semi nude, and no goldshows. The post from open source was also a girl that I never saw doing a goldshows, or maybe one , twice a week.
I myself do nude but get away with semi nude, and no toys. You can make this work without those factors

Holy cannoli! It all makes sense now... 67 hours in one week is insane

Well it was def worth it!
My personal goal is working 6 hours upcoming time and hopefully increasing it to 7.5 or 8 (weekdays)

If Ill be able to do this and keep my hourly high Ill be a happy camper

Ps she did this in a contest week, so it prob gave her some extra motivation for those hours

150$/hour doing semi-nude ?? I'm blown away. How are you doing this... like what kind of shows do you normally do?

Ya it's really difficult to track all the traffic sm gets cuz of all the whitelabel sites. Your rates are really inspriing they are double mine and I'm averaging a minimum wage hourly

I was trying to add if up based on previous year but they've changed it. I think the average I got was $87,000 per contest paid to models in prizes

I just tease and maybe flash boobs or butt for the vanilla guys and for fetish guys I do fetish-y/femdom shows. I only make $150+/hr on some nights. I usually work maybe ~2 hrs a night and my goal is at least $200 total for the night. Lately I have been lazy and quitting at $180. My only "good" night this entire month was June 7th and I made $315.93 in 1hr37mins. It's crazy how much it varies. I tend to give up really easily if it's slow bc I came from MFC where the money was bigger and faster.

p.s. I just checked some recent paychecks from the last couple months and I would say my weekly hourly average is more like $70-80/hr. I had one good week where it was $120/hr.

how are models allowed to advertise shots? like 50 gold a shot i saw and a few others with vodka. is that allowed?
confused....

The question has already been answered. They have to cover their ass if something bad happens due to the model being fucked up. But plenty of people in lots of Careers drink a little while working. I guess I am curious why it is so concerning for you? I don’t like that I work really hard to blend my eyeshadows but then I see someone killing it with only some shitty thick black eyeliner. But that is their vibe and hustle. Models also advertise their social media in their topics, some get busted.

The code of conduct states to not be under the influence of drugs and alcohol and any violation of that could result in termination of the account. But how if you are working remotely how do you determine that, by not being a mess and not advertising that you are drinking. Anyone who has that in their topic either doesn’t know any of the rules or has weighed the risks.


For many who work the typical North American night schedule you will find that many of your customers are drinking and just like dating it is sometimes easier to make a connection if you are both drinking. I have drank on cam and sometimes it was fun and sometimes it lead to shitty performances. I do not drink at all let alone on cam because it didn’t help me. For some it does, we are adults and Sm is not our boss making sure we didn’t have a beer at lunch. We are independent contractors who need to understand the agreements we sign and their consequences.

Models do get in trouble when they over imbibe. Typically because they pass out or a customer/ models looking to get people in trouble report them.

Oops my exclusive is 12.99 not 13.99. I set my rates so that I'd have a similar payout to MFC's regular pvt (60 tokens/$3/min) & true pvt rates (80 tokens/$4/min).

So my SM pvt rate is 8.99 ($3.14/min) and excl rate is 12.99 ($4.54/min).
