What's the point of this new chargeback forgiveness system? All I get is refund after refund and 0 chargebacks . This is a f*cking plague right now. I'm really considering quitting C4S and moving my stuff to IWC&MV.

0.0 I thought that when they said chargebacks were covered they meant sh*t was you know actually covered not just re-worded. I'm sorry :(

"Back in March, Clips4Sale Owner Neil announced a Chargeback Forgiveness Program was coming, and now it’s here! Starting with July 7th payouts to studios, Clips4Sale will return any chargeback deductions from January 1, 2018 through June 30, 2018. Any chargebacks received during this period will be forgiven and included in the July 7th check. Studios can see the amounts that have been returned to them by checking their Admin Sales Reports.

Going forward, chargebacks will appear in studios’ Admin Page, but funds will not be deducted from future payouts. The only exception to this will be if a studio’s chargebacks are over 2% of their gross sales in chargebacks."

Hi Ladies me again..

Just had my first custom request - woop!! I don't know what he wants yet, but assuming it's nothing too crazy or requiring any special props what shall I charge? What do you guys charge for customs?

justsometwat
08-23-2018, 06:05 AM
The industry standard seems to be $10/minute for custom videos. It's hard to charge more and if you charge less than that you are probably underselling yourself.

Thanks that's good to know!

Sorry for all the newbie questions but also, do you guys take payment via the tribute button for customs?

All refunds have stopped months ago. Only legit customer complaints which we can not resolve on our own - like double billing or if a customer in good standing reports fraud on their CC (which is then banned from use on the site) are refunded.

If you have any questions, please call Neil, the owner of Clips4Sale at: 727-804-3005

I've been trying to upload a SINGLE CLIP all morning. It gets to 100% but just sits there and doesn't go the final step. I just tried again and after sitting at 100% for 5 minutes it automatically started uploading it again from the beginning? So frustrating. I have more to upload today but at this rate.....

Yup. I've had this same problem before. Waiting for a clip to load up and it was so close to finished and I walked away for a few minutes. Came back to find the file had started uploading from the start again! WTH?? I haven't had that problem in months though...

It *used to* go from showing 100% to showing the file size (what it does when the upload is complete), pretty much immediately. But now it will stay at 100% for a minute or two before it shows the file size.

You can always count on C4S to be GLITCHY! :P

Yep, my C4S uploader is doing the same. I queued up a bunch of videos and came back and most had started over again. I need to upload for September, but I can't if this keeps happening.

Custom videos are not allowed by C4S.
We can not upload and post clip only for one person and remove it after sale.
It will be "Clip spam".

08-27-2018, 11:44 PM
Custom clips don't have to be exclusive...the customs I make can be bought by anyone else as well, it's just that the person requesting the custom has to pay for it to be made first.

boyru
08-28-2018, 09:56 AM
Sorry, but custom cli is a custom.
I watermark custom clips with mail of the person and do not allow others to download it.
1 order - 1 customer - 1 sale.

Is it okay?

justsometwat
08-28-2018, 10:17 AM
I resell all of my custom videos. Why earn ~$100 on a video when I can earn much MUCH more than that by reselling it? If they want to be the only person to buy the video then they can pay out the ass for it because I am losing money on the potential sales. My custom videos tend to sell 5x as much as some of my normal pre-made videos. Plus they are generally longer than I make with my own ideas so rather than $10 for a video I can make $15+ per sale for the video. It all adds up.

YOU don't have to resell your videos, but I strongly suggest to everyone else that you do. Your limiting yourself by not doing so.

boyru
08-28-2018, 10:38 AM
Customers ask for exclusive custom video starting from $4/minute.
They are against of re-selling to others.
What can i do?

Whatever you want, but $4 a minute isn't worth it in the first place.

Lol now I can't even get into my studio. Admin page doesn't load at all.

And yeah to echo what others have said, I'm relatively new to c4s and trust me, I'm no big deal but I charge $10 a min for customs and people pay it. And I resell them. I personally would charge far, far more if they wanted it exclusively for themselves. I've had a few guys who wanted a custom for less and I politely declined.

i re-sell custom order in the past and my store was closed for 1 week after customer's mail
he has mailed about a rule violation, because it was private order only for one person
after this i dont have right to post custom orders

now i am useing my U.S. billing with %25 fee (12% US federal tax, 12% billing fee)

yumei
08-29-2018, 03:11 AM
My normal custom rate is 5$/min and I upload custom clips to my store with information is custom order. When custom wants me to use his name my rate is 7$/min and I upload the clip to my store with information that customer name was used(and yes this kind of clips are selling as well).
When customer want me to make exclusive content(I do not upload to c4s store and no resell) my rate is 20$/min.Cuz it takes more time and it would be only 1 sale.

I would not lower my rates because of beggars- they can go to another girl.There is place for all of us:)

SuperPookie
08-29-2018, 12:36 PM
I always resell my customs unless the customer pays extra for it to be exclusive to him and actually the majority of the newer clips in my main C4S store are customs I resell. I don't however resell it there for at least a month or so so the guy doesn't feel like he got hosed.

boyru
08-30-2018, 11:02 AM
Sorry, but re-selling exclusive content is prohibited by C4S Disclaimer.
Only 1 abuse and store will be closed to full review (takes up to 1 week).

Custom order = 1 exclusive sale. It is axiom here in russia.

justsometwat
08-30-2018, 11:20 AM
Show me where.

A CUSTOMER cannot resell content that he has bought. He also cannot share the content - though that clearly doesn't stop anyone. Only EXCLUSIVE STUDIO MEMBERS (https://clips4salestudio.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360008351474-What-are-the-C4S-FEATURED-Stores-) cannot resell content anywhere else because they have exclusivity with C4S as their only site, but that has nothing to do with custom content.

I have seen people argue that the model used their email/script as the description and that it violates their IP, which makes sense, but if they never agreed to make content exclusive and the customer does not have any proof otherwise then it wouldn't make sense to ban an account for selling the custom content.

Hi ladies, sorry if this is a TOTAL newbie question and has been answered before but I've been reading this whole thread from the start (I've still got about 100 pages to read haha) and I thought I would ask for some tips.

I think I've finally found a category that works amazingly well for me. Weight Gaining.. I've made hundreds of dollars in the last few days just adding those clips, honestly I get it know when people say 'find your niche' on that site, because I found it and can't believe how well it's doing! I've got like 30 clips in other categories and the 3 weight gain ones I've added have sold better than all the rest combined!

.. So my question is, how do you recreate this in other categories? Like, how do I find another great category with high traffic that isn't swamped with other girls clips? Or do I literally purely upload weight clips because that's what's selling 10x a day at the moment?? (I don't mind, but I don't want the guys to get bored or me to run out of ideas!)

Thanks!

I'm fairly new, but most categories tend to have closely related ones that you can also work on. For instance, my best sellers are Ruined Orgasms, so I also post Handjob and Orgasm Control videos as well. I think with Weight Gain, Stuffing is a category you could also work with. I'm not well versed in that particular fetish, but I know there's a market.

Anyone else happen to notice that the Top Clips lists are getting shorter in certain categories..? Some categories that I have posted in for years, and have 50 Top Clips listed, are now suddenly down to only 20 some clips listed. I thought that was strange and wonder if they are making some changes.....

I noticed that a while back, to me it looked like "dead" categories that aren't updated very often - so only videos that had sold "recently" in that category were showing up. I don't if that makes sense without me rambling on :P

Clip Preview Bug Fix

Recently, we were made aware of a bug with the Preview Clips selection, which is selected during the initial store set-up. Some studios had previously selected Disabled (not to display any previews for their clips), however the system had incorrectly displayed previews. We have fixed the bug and now some studios who had previews incorrectly displaying will notice that their clips no longer have previews - correcting the bug as the clips should never have had previews displayed.

NOTE: The system may have initially displayed "Disabled" in the admin for the Clip Preview selection, but due to the bug the previews were still being added on the live stores.

IMPORTANT: The bug fix WILL NOT change anyone’s current Clip Preview setting to remove previews, it is only correcting the bug where previews were displayed even after a studio selected to have them disabled on their store.
HOW TO SET-UP CLIP PREVIEWS

If you do (or do not) want to have clip previews, you can easily change your preview setting by following the steps below:

In your admin, go to Clip Store

Click on Edit Clip Site

The 3rd option on this page is Preview Clips

Click the drop down and make your selection:

Disabled

Allow only the clips I want

Allow all clip previews to be played in my store

At Start of the Clip

10 seconds from start

1/4 of the clip

Half clip

3/4 of the clip

Once you have made your selection, scroll to the bottom of the page and click SUBMIT

NOTE: If you want to upload your own custom made previews (created outside of Clips4Sale) or if you want to create your own previews using the Clip Preview Creator - then choose the setting "Allow only the clips I want".

After you either upload your custom made clip preview or you save the clip preview that you created using the Clip Preview Creator on the ADD CLIPS page, the system will mark your preview as "Using producer uploaded preview" automatically.

So I’ve tried uploading images to image store from an I phone,android and an apple MacBook Air laptop but none of them would upload, they have to be in a zip format, how do you convert these images to zip format? Also, what’s the difference in the image sections, I can upload to the top image section but I can’t find those images anywhere on my store... I guess that section doesn’t have to be zip format..

Hya everyone, have not posted in this forum for ages but was wondering if anyone could offer any advice. I am pregnant and have done clips4sale now for over 4 years ( as well as studying ) I am not intending to use my 'bump' or a pregnancy theme in any of the clips, so am a bit worried about how I am going to plan my work. At the moment I am trying to make a bulk of clips to use in the first 6 months when I know working is going to be hard, this is proving to be challenging with the tiredness and sickness. I am generally feeling feeling really emotional and finding it hard to enjoy the work.
My question is does anyone have any experience in getting through a pregnancy as a clips4sale model without utilizing the bump? and does anyone have any advice or tips?

Just to add... saw the posts on customs and I would say always upload your customs as yes they do tend to sell well.
I sometimes charge more than $10 an hour if its a complicated custom,Its your business at the end of the day, and you can charge what ever you like. For me personally I don't enjoy making customs so its has to be worth my while doing it, and I cherry pick the ones I know I enjoy. At the start I tended to do them all and charge about $10 a min, but found it really tedious.

Hi girls I've just been emailing back an forth about a custom clip. It turns out hes never brought my clips, but he found them on a 'private playlist he follows on pornhub'

I told him if he directs me to how I can find this, I will reward him.

How do we search these?!?! I feel really angry as this has never happened before and I want them taken down.

Edit: I submitted a report via their piracy report so hopefully they can get it removed even though it's private. I don't even care about other people viewing it for free, but I am super worried about being recognised in real life etc, I don't even show my face in my clips!!! I'm gonna get myself a wig tomorrow so I can be even more in disguise.. And hopefully it won't matter even if they end up on tube sites.. x
