Of course it's possible. The clip producers that are consistently in the Top 50 Studios on the main page make that and then some.
They sale mainstream, but not fetishes. What about fetishes (feet, sneakers, soles, butts) without nudity?

Is it possible to have sales for $200-$230 every day? It will be great to earn $5500-$7500 monthly.
Of course. Don't let the up and down struggles of the others bug you. It's residual income after all. Read through this thread and the following:

Actually no, some of the top 50 are not main stream at all. Some are just feet only, so it's doable.

well still no money here
this is what i got from the live support
(00:00:53) : your money departement shouldnt even be sleeping right now, before everybody got their payments
Natalie (00:01:14) : I will forward this chat to Neil
helena (00:01:28) : yes please do
Natalie (00:01:36) : Thanks for you patience, payout issue should be taken care of until 16
Natalie (00:01:37) : Bye
so there it is.
You cant tell me that it is so hard for banks to do international wire transfers, its what they do DAILY!!
I have no more faith in c4s and I dont believe them anymore!

I love their thinly-veiled terminology: "Payout issues SHOULD be taken care of". SHOULD... but who even knows?
This is like the fourth time this month now that they've set us up for getting money that hasn't appeared. Maybe those of us affected by this group together for the removal of the $45 they charged us for this crock of shit.

I was told the same as you Incantatious, last i heard from gia was wednesday when she said funds will appear by end of the week, then we have had from Sara, to be fair my clip money on a normal payout is around 3 pm uk time, we will be paid there has just been a mass f up with there bank, but thats not OUR problem so i think they should wave the $45 transfer fee this month, clips are paid monthly and like a lot of jobs where your paid monthly we rely on it. I wouldn't moan if it was a few hundred but i do well with my clips even if i have not had the best month its money i count on.............so they need to compensate for this mess up. 1 - purely coz its not our fault and 2 - coz we were not aware wires would be effected........of course c4s are not going down or scamming us at all. They do have one of the best support out there and have always paid on time BUT when you fuck up you should compensate for that error as it not our doing. I have not heard back from Gia and i only sent one email after friday as i was told by her it would appear in my bank by end of the week - Friday. I know we will be paid 100% but please stop with telling us a time frame and it never happening, if we are not going to be paid till next month then let us know so i can work harder on my other sources of income to make up for the loss of clip money this month..............we have been told wires have now all been sent which would mean today so i am hopeful as it never gets to me by around 3 pm uk time anyway, if not then i would like a clear date when its going in or an answer if we are going to have to wait till next pay day, just a clear when its going in would be nice...............and yep there is def more than a handful with wire payouts that have not been paid - and nope i still don't want to be paid by cheque, i know you girls have got your cheques but its something i do not want, more than happy with wire it comes earlier and i earn enough to make up for the wire cost.

No money here either..Guessing the last email was to shut us up for the weekend. I know from experience an Int'l Wire takes like 24h to reach the account so if there's no money by the end of the day it means they didn't process the payments Friday. I am now in the position where I had to borrow money from friends to pay bills . Unreal! arghhh

Before Febr of 2016 I got money on 4-6 every Month.
In March I got them on 9th - they came from intermediary UK Bank with additional $25 fee.
Now they sent money using intermediary Bank in Poland. It can take up to 3 additional days!

I am currently having these discussions with c4s:
Me (in short):
When will our money arrive exactly?
Megan V:
Hello,
We sincerely apologize for the delay. The delay was due to new International banking rules, the final confirmation came in on Friday afternoon that all wires were transferred. It normally takes one business day for the transaction to be completed please allow an additional 24 hours for the funds to be posted in your account. Please look for a payment from either: Intermark Management or The Payment Factory Ltd (coming from Poland)
We hope this response has sufficiently answered your questions.
Me:
So that means tomorrow (Tue 06), at the latest? I live in xXx EU.
Gia:
Hello,
The payment should be in the account this week. Please confirm when you receive the payment.
We hope this response has sufficiently answered your questions.
Me:
"should be in the account this week" is not an exact estimate. You said the same thing last week. Have the transfers been approved and sent or not? How long does the money take to reach me in this new banking situation? I am certain you know these things. Just tell us when we're going to get paid! I'm not leaving c4s, I just want to know how I'm going to survive for the following month! Please stop the vague corporate terminology and tell us what's going on!
Still waiting on a response...

Looks like they don't take us seriously I am sure we are not only a handful of Int'l studios and after this mess they didn't even offer the $ 45 back...Really angry now
Incantatious
06-13-2016, 08:13 AM
The least they could do is refund the $45 wire fee for those of us who have been affected by this. $45 is a huge amount to pay even for a payout that reliably comes on time, especially in relative terms to what other sites charge for international payout, (e.g. a mere $5 over Payoneer, which I've barely ever had any problems with at all, and even their mess-ups I don't think have ever been on this scale), but it's absolute insanity to be paying $45 for a service that has been as massively compromised as it has been this month. The only reason I accepted $45 for wire fee before was because of the flawless reputation C4S had for reliability in payment, which is obviously the last thing it is right now.
I wish that C4S would acknowledge this colossal mess-up, and treat it as what it is, rather than just continuing to give those of us who take the time to email them false promises and thanking us for our patience, (it isn't like we have much of a choice in the matter). Those who have written here who have needed to actually borrow money from others to keep them going throughout this mess-up, (and who even knows how many more people affected have had to resort to borrowing who haven't posted here), don't deserve to have to suffer for a mistake that wasn't their fault, and also to be continuously given false information about when the payment will process only to lead to further financial problems for them.

After reading all your posts I was worried I would not receive my check but I got it yesterday. I am in Canada. I normally get my check around the 8-10, except one month where I never received it, so I asked them to send me the amount the following month. Would love to get my money directly into my account but after reading all the problems you guys have, I'll stick to old school paper check.
I received my cheque in Canada a day earlier than usual actually.

This time last year C4S asked for non-US testers for Payoneer payout. They did 1 payout for 1 month, and it worked fine for everyone (I was a tester, along with a few other producers I know). So...there is no reason other than it seems like C4S starts things and never finishes them.
I'd love Payoneer as a payment option from c4s. We should push this, maybe they will agree to it in the end? If nobody is asking, they obviously see no reason to adding Payoneer. Let's make a petition or something ;D

06-13-2016, 09:26 AM
No money here either. I really hope I'll get it this week. Thanks God I'm not relying on this payment for my day to day expenses or I'd be super mad too. I know some of you do, like the girl who wanted to take her kids to the comic con, that really sucks. :/ Hang in there ladies, I'm sure this will be sorted out really soon. It has to :/

I know many webcam models from Russia, thats how they receive their money.

I didn't receive the money yet, either and no answers from support or Gia regarding the issue. I also have a bug in the backend where I didn't get an answer about, yet. I hope they are just under a lot of workload because of the bank change and everything will resolve itself.. but it's not funny :(
I got this answer 2 days ago.
"All payout issues should be fixed by the close of business today 06/10/16 for your June, 2016 payout."
It was weekend so the money should arrive in maximum two days. Don't worry girls, I'm sure c4s isn't going to scam anyone. They have been around for years and it's the best and most popular clip selling site. I doubt they want to destroy their own bussiness.

I just came here to say the same thing. It looks fugly...I liked the old one better. :P Oh and the Feedback thing....you can activate that (if you want) and a little tab shows up on your store page (well, it did years ago...I don't know what the appearance of it now is), but guys who click on it can leave you feedback. I used it very early on until I received a crummy comment and I noticed that they were/are anonymous (no email address) and I thought 'screw that!' lol Feedback to me is $ales! I don't like guys dropping their unsolicited opinions on me. just my :twocents:

Yep its down right now.
Side note, I've tried searching the thread but I cant find anything. Does anyone know how I can make a very nice .gif thats basically a collage of short previews of each scene in the clip? I keep seeing girls doing this and I can't figure out how to make it look nice and not like I'm using the video equivalent of paint lol
Missjayne77
06-13-2016, 10:37 PM
I use my Movie Maker to do this. I go through the video, I press "split" to everywhere I want the Gif to start and end, delete all the rest of the video I don't want in my gif from the middle and ends, so only roughly 10 secs of footage is left. I usually only do 2 to 3 scenes of a few secs at most. Use the fade to white animation (set at 2.5 secs) to make it look more natural on all transitions. Save the short 10 sec video to my harddrive. Go to http://ezgif.com/video-to-gif Upload the 10 sec video to this, press convert and Daaaa daahhhh
Very brief summary but if you need more help, let me know.

Personally I take screenshots with VLC and then create layers and do the animation in Photoshop. But what the other poster mentioned is probably easier. I just wanted to say, I started doing this about a year or so ago and I SWEAR it made a difference in sales. It does take more time, but I feel it's totally worth it!

I don't think that's the case. It's not a matter of if, just a matter of when. They will send the money eventually, I'm not worried of this being a scam. But I can see how it's frustrating to not knowing when and being postponed day after day. Everyone would have been much more calm and less worried if they would have given us a due date and actually stick to it, as opposed to empty promises each time.
I've been with c4s for only a couple of years but I've always received my previous payments on time, even earlier than I was supposed to, so I'm not worried, I know we will receive our money :) Hopefully soon lol.
This is a major screw up on their part and I hope in the future they will take the necessary measures to prevent this from happening again. Maybe even add Payoneer? That would be great !

The cheques are sent out so fast, I don't know why they're not offering to send cheque payments now to those affected...but I guess it would mess up the system even more to suddenly pull some transfers. I would be asking for a cheque now rather than waiting for them to sort this out...being left with no payment for this long is unacceptable.

We hope this response has sufficiently answered your questions. If not, please do not send another email. Instead, reply to this email."
This is what I just asked: "24 hours and still no money. 7 working days delay now .. Could you please tell me when exactly will I get my money? Rather than saying 'tomorow' everyday which never happened? Just a certain date?I had to borrow money to pay some bills and I seriously need to know if and when this payout is coming? "

I looks like c4s has absolutely NO control over this situation... and they're trying hard to hide that from us. This is getting bad! Me and my BF are out of money and had to ask our families for help... I wish they'd just tell us what's going on and when it's going to be over, if it's going to be over.
I wonder if it's worth updating my store with new clips. My c4s admin interface shows 0 hits for today - again, I have no idea what causes this error but it seems to be recurring - and sales are at an alltime low, despite the fact that I update and advertise daily. The situation looks like shit!

I am in c4s since 2009 year, but my activity since 2014.
Some intermediate banks can ask for the origin of money. If they see "adult" they can freeze money.
As You know, paypal doesn't work in adult. I think some EU banks don't accept "adult" too.
