Anyone heard an update on payments? I had thought the site might have shut down but I made a sale today even though I stopped uploading when they lost bill.com and had no way to pay me.
It's infuriating they are still taking payments and yet not paying out that I can see. No answer from Support so far.

I got a check in July for June's payment but I didn't earn enough for July to cash out. I don't think it's worth keeping that site updated so I usually rely on tributes or a sale here or there. They haven't announced a new payment service. I figured they were still sending out checks.

I would love to see t hem go under just because of their horrible customer service and obvious lack of caring. Wish one of the bigger sites would buy them out. I haven't been able to access my account in months and also had my store get wiped while back with literally no explanation as to why. I also lost the funds I had made, only 20 bucks but still. They suck.

They sent me a payment on Paypal this week. I was very hesitant to get paid by Paypal but there seem to be nothing happening and after what happened with YouKandy, I prefer getting my money now. I'm not posting anything new on my Studio until they get a new payment partner.

My sales for this site has been in the toliet this summer. :( I hope my new clips change that! I mean everything changed after they lost bill.com for my stores sales.

Have any international studios (I'm in Canada) been paid by Paypal? I was emailed by Breese on August 21, sent my details, nothing yet. Also there is no record on the site of payouts, I wanted to verify how much I was owed vs how much is sent. Ugh.

I got paid once by Paypal last month and I am Canadian as well. I noticed earlier today that they sent me more money on Paypal, which is weird because I'm sure they don't owe me that much money.
Also... when I log in my Kinkbomb profile I am asked to change my password... Wtf is going on with that website??

Yeah I was asked to change my password too. Maybe they had a security breach.

I've been loyal to them since the beginning. Only make $40-100/mo there but kept uploading content because I like the people who run it. They owe me around $100 right now from August and I've yet to be paid. They sent something out about a new payment option and we'd be getting details on how to sign up but I've gotten nothing. Extremely anxious since I lost $100 to youkandy already this summer. Never though KB would do this to us but I should stop fooling myself since I lost $80 to clipvia and $65 to whatever that shitty indy cam site was called about 5 years ago. I also have like $300 held up on adultwork but haven't been able to withdraw that either. It's sooo frustrating how easy it is for these sites to take advantage of us. :( Can I write off these losses in my taxes???

It's now been a month since I was contacted to be paid, they said it would be a week. I emailed support etc. and nothing. Nice. I have a few hundred owing and I would like to keep using the site and updating.

Have the payment issues been resolved with this site? I see it is still up and running. I have hesitated quite some time on signing up due to those problems.

I can still only get a check mailed to me. Haven't heard anything about that changing anytime soon.
Edited to say that I had to email them to get them to pay me. I was at the minimum pay out but they never bothered sending me payment.

Anybody knows what's going on with that website? I haven't posted new videos since they announced they lost their payment partner, I believe it was last summer. I've been paid on Paypal since but I really don't like it! I don't want to risk getting banned from Paypal. It seems like they really don't care about this situation and have no intention to change, cause they are still making money with the top models... I never made a lot of money on this site but I love having multiple sources of income!

Do you think there's a chance I might get payed by KB? They stopped paying me, I stopped uploading, but I haven't taken down my videos and I have occasional sales. I have about $200 and I would like to get them. I sent them a ticket, but no answer yet.

I thought they went out of business? I would do a search (on here, duckduckgo.com) & see
Good luck, if they're bankrupt, you might not get paid.
Look in Cam Connect.

Are you under $100 owed? They use to pay out for $50 and above but raised it to $100. I haven't gotten a payment from them since October but I also haven't generated $100 in sales since the last payment. I'm honestly thinking of shutting down my store once I get another payment since I rarely get sales from the site and it's not worth the effort. Last year was my best year ever on the site and I only made $250. Since I'm not even gonna reach that not so lofty sum this year I figure why bother?
EDIT: Ok, re-read your post. You're owed $200 so they should have payed you. The last time I got payed it was a direct deposit and I'm located in the US. Keep us updated on what happens. If they end up stiffing you I'll just shut my store down immediately.

I had to message them twice and wait over a week to hear back. They asked if I wanted PayPal or a check, I asked for a check. As soon as I get it and cash it I'm shutting my account down.
There's no traffic there at all. Unless you bring your own traffic you're not going to stand a chance. It's not even worth bringing your own because they don't have ACH anymore. I dunno how they pay their big earners but they don't wanna pay the little people out unless they beg.
I haven't gotten a Kinkbomb order in about 2 months but I just got one that pushes me over the $100 threshold for a payout. I'll keep you updated if I get paid or not.

I got paid and shut my account down. Over the years it has been a massive waste of time and honestly what it cost me in taxes made it completely not worth it. Having to chase down payment and the severe lack of traffic and the hideous front page finally made me leave. When KB changed their homepage I liked it, but they changed it again and it's so damned ugly. It's the same handful of people showing on the front page, so unless you spam your clips you get no eyes on you.
I can't say I'll miss that site!
I still haven't gotten paid so I sent a ticket over today and I'm waiting to hear back.
I received a check in the mail today from Kinkbomb. Last time they paid me it was direct deposit so that's how I was expecting to get paid but a check works too.

Kinkbomb (Breese) contacted ME on 2019-08-27 asking me why I haven't uploaded any videos since last year. Promising me to feature me if I was willing to give them another chance. They never did feature me so not a good start but not a big deal.
We emailed back and forth a few time she always replied quickly. I added over 40 videos since. Looking at my account, I realized I had 2 missing payments so I email Breese directly AND open a ticket. That was 7 days ago! No replied at all I am being ignored. I just DM them on twitter yesterday. If I don't hear back from them by mid-afternoon I am going to call them.
I am extremely disgusted with their attitude specially when the owner keeps posting on twitter about how rich she is! I am glad to see that some of you end up being paid. I'll be updating on here about my situation because am I not going to let them rip me off quietly that's for sure.

I had to be VERY pushy but staid polite and I did get paid. Don't give up on your money ladies, you all deserve to get paid! I've reach the minimum payout again this month so let's see if I get paid this time.

Breese called me and left me a message asking me to call him back. I thought it was super rude, I didn't give them my phone number to be contacted. I put it in because I had to. I had also asked to be featured or at least what it took to be featured on the main page (before they changed it up) and they said we can add you but it will be months before we can since we offered it as a reward to others.
They kept the same top girls in rotation but never added anyone else. Clearly they are too selling with a huge client base, why not advertise some lesser knowns and get some money from them too? I think it's a missed opportunity to make more money and encourage them to bring their clients to the site.
I think they make a pretty penny from the top girls and don't really need any other customers. That explains why there's no real traffic for anyone else.
I was done with this site ages ago. They changed the look and it's hideous now and they can't even pay on time unless you ask them to pay you.

I never did any business on Kinkbomb. My best year on there was $250. I've stopped updating my store as it's not worth my time.

I found out that Breese is going around promising to feature you as soon as you start adding clips and star using their site again but never actually does it. I am not the only one that got SCAM. >:(
Princess Renee, the owner of the site, win most of the contest and ALWAYS featured herself all over the front page.
Truly, she shouldn't even participate to any of her own contest. :thumbsdow
I really think I only got paid because I told them I would used the 90% tribute system IF they pay me...
But it was just to get paid the 12 days ignoring me was too frustrating.
That site is a SCAM. Princess Renee definitely CAN afford to pay everyone on time she just doesn't want to.

I had actually come here to ask if anyone knew if these guys were going to offer chargeback protection in the future like IWC & MV do, but ah, if they're not even paying...
I am sorry to hear you're all having such a rough time. I hope things improve soon!

Lmao this is so horribly funny because I noticed the same set of girls being featured on the site since 2017... I always sit on my accounts I make on websites before actually going into pursue the site itself, just listening to other models experiences and if enough adds up I dip. It's so funny I've closed my account for months and had gotten a random ass email from them weeks ago about a silly $300 halloween contest lol, yeah right.

Got a random email saying I sold a video, havent uploaded anything to kinkbomb in years but they are currently paying out 100% threw the end of may and doing direct deposit first week of every month so I may dabble with it during their 100% payout promotion. c4s is doing a similiar promo but it only counts if they buy threw a specific link which none of my guys do, kinkbomb is 100% on all sales regardless of how they got there, so we'll see what happens.

ok they replied it was malfunctioning but is fixed now. I was able to upload withthe browser now
Anybody having a problem getting from them? I made a payout last month and still haven't received my money. I sent in a ticket 5 days ago to asked why I haven't been payed and it's still being processed

So uh, how are things going, now in 2021?Are international artists in particular receiving regular payouts? Or is it still like pulling teeth? Do you have to request a payout every time?
I have considered trying to relatively losslessly compress my vids with handbrake and upload them all at once on kinbomb, in the hopes of getting a little extra money. Even receiving payouts via PP, as long as it was ONLY from them, would probably not bother me presently - but one would only consider that if they actually paid reliably and regularly.
... Are there still just a few guys around buying on kb? I'm pretty much willing to just port my vids over as long as it won't be a total shitshow and there are a couple hundred bucks to be had /shrug.
That being said: This thread does make KB look like a shitshow as of late.
SophiaSylvan
03-16-2021, 10:18 AM
There's no way to get paid for international artists except by a method that isn't adult friendly. I've always been paid but sometimes it took a while and I think I got my account closed down on said method bc of them but I can't be sure. I do make sales there so I'm continuing and when enough builds up I'll get a $50 wire...sigh
PrincessAngel
03-18-2021, 08:03 AM
I ported my vids over to KB because it just seemed like "the thing to do". Maybe I'm just spoiled but I feel very uneasy about earning money on a platform that doesn't have a valid payout method for me on file (yet), but I at least wanna trust that they won't "just" steal from me.
Guess I'll just wait to hear from them, eventually.
By the way, any non Americans being paid via ACH by them? I recently managed to actually get something better than Transferwise by visiting and just trying several banks & the help of a friend, but as a total non-resident I (naturally) have neither SSN nor TIN or US address, and lots of platforms get *really* weird about Europeans wanting to be paid via ACH, so I usually *try* to ask support about it. Did that go okay for you? Just asking because KB really seems particularly sus - and also unresponsive to support queries lol

It's been two months since I hit payout and no payment from them, no response to my 3 tickets :( Any advice? Seems to be a common issue. I am def closing my acct, but Id like my money, lol! I was thinking of trying to switch my payment method to check, to see if that speeds things up.
Slow site, but I would've kept them if they could at least anwser a polite email/ticket. :/

Hey! I have been on the site for 10 days now, and indeed: No responses to any tickets whatsoever. Wrote them on the first day regarding my payout method, then days later a tool did it for me automatically to get a verifiedcalls number. From what I can tell the administration is currently absent? Nobody around on SM either. I'm really beginning to worry that even an ACH payout wouldn't reach me, or at the very least they don't respond to a thing.
My identification docs were kinda approved in a fashion that made me believe nobody looked at them, because it just went from "received" to "verified" instantly. I mean they have them, but it's an odd way of doing things.
It also feels really weird that they are continuing to offer 90%?! payouts for video sales? To this day? Because it kinda looks like they can't really afford to be *that* generous, and part of me wishes they'd lower that and hire someone to manage payments and run customer support, maybe get some ads. 90% of 0 is still 0. Artists unsure whether they'll get paid is terrible for business lol

03-26-2021, 09:03 AM
I really wonder how that phone feature works, by the way. There seems to be no way to link an existing verifiedcalls account.

03-29-2021, 05:32 PM
Yes the 90 percent thing is cool, but honestly it made me a bit suspicious too. They finally got back to me after I sent a third ticket that mentioned taking legal action. I shouldn't have to do that to get paid :( I'm closing my acct the second they pay me

Update:
Over the summer of 2020, it an whole month to receive my Kinkbomb payment. After October 2020, my payments have been coming on time after speaking to them via Twitter. However, I did receive all of my money via ACH. Kinkbomb is cool company but you might run into late payment problems if you are American. However, I might avoid them if I was an international model, :O

After months of emailing and one response , Im done. I will speak to a lawyer, but otherwise I will just delete everything and move on. It is a shame they couldn't just pay me, as I did like the site. Def do NOT recommend anyone sign up, and I hope those of you already on Kinkbomb are getting paid, I don't think I will. Ah well, I tried. Grateful for the many other sites that payout and are professional.

Hello everyone.
Myself and my partner create videos and we've been posting up on Kinkbomb slowly. Our main store is up on Clips4Sale. Now, Kinkbomb owe us money and for the past few months they have not being paying us. We've issued tickets and threatened them with a court case. They finally replied and said we will be paid soon. Again months down the line, we've had nothing. We've issued another ticket a month back and STILL no reply. We are definitely not uploading any more videos, but there are purchases still being made and we are concerned will we ever be paid, and can we prosecute them for not paying us? We are based in UK.

It is shocking how many of you have not been paid! How have they not been prosecuted yet??
We really want to delete the videos, but the issue is if we do that, then 100% we will not be paid :( They owe us many hundreds of dollars.
