No paypal, ever! $500 fine/possibly confiscated funds.
I think for MFC skype shows should at LEAST be the same token price for privates on there. (After all they would be getting your full attention for $2 less per minute than a true private, and better video to boot).
Re: Pricing for Skype shows?
$5/min using alertpay or payoneer!
i give them 3 extra mins after they purchase more than 30 mins

Re: Pricing for Skype shows?
(What he pays per minute on the site he found you on) + (What you MAKE per minute on the site he found you on)
Divide by 2
If it's a funny-looking number, round up to the next thing that ends in .99
Example: He finds you on MFC where pvts cost $5.99,and which pays you 50%, so that makes your cut equal to 2.99 per minute... therefore,
(5.99+2.99) / 2 = $4.49
Round up to $4.99. Done.
This way he's getting a 'deal', and you're also getting a nice deal going off-platform (you need to be compensated for the risk you are taking, after all). ;-)
Have fun!
Re: Pricing for Skype shows?
Wow, I'm pretty naive still, lol!
I thought when they asked for Skype on MFC they were expecting to be paying in tokens! I guess I went by the profiles where I saw skype shows offered for tokens.
MFC doesn't catch hosts doing this? I want to do that too if it's not going to get me in trouble. I don't want to lose my account there though, still have high hopes for figuring out how to get them to actually tip me, lol!
Re: Pricing for Skype shows?
I charge $3 per minute for skype and take alertpay. :)

Do you take money up front or after the show? Have you had issues with chargebacks?
Re: Pricing for Skype shows?
lol ^^
Is that a real question =P
NEVER take anything after the show no matter what.
They WONT pay you .. Period. Why should they , they are
done hehe.
Re: Pricing for Skype shows?
ALWAYS TAKE MONEY UP FRONT BEFORE YOU EVEN TURN YOUR CAM ON. And I haven't had any chargebacks with alertpay. I love alertpay. :)

Seriously? If you're not a camgirl then who are you? Are you some sort of reporter/doing your research?
Anyways, Always take money upfront. Only a fool will ask for money after the show. Try it and see what happens.

Some of the guys on MFC will try to talk you into accepting PayPal, but don't do it. I make them pay in tokens and nothing else, unless they happen to find me on AdultCamGirlsNetwork and pay through there.
I think you'll be fine. I actually forgot about what the MFC policy is for accepting tokens for shows done outside the site, but I'd think they wouldn't care too much since MFC is still getting paid (from the tokens that guy tips you for the Skype show). That site is huge and models are breaking rules all the time in public chat. :P
Re: Pricing for Skype shows?
I've got a guy who's been whining relentlessly about the fact I don't take PayPal. When he first asked in my room, I laughed. When he didn't get it ("all the other models do it!"), I explained why it's idiotic to even try. He keeps coming back to my room, keeps asking - "when are you going to take Paypal?" - and I keep kicking him out.
I finally asked a few of these guys what the deal is, why everyone keeps asking for PayPal. One said that it's because they hate giving money to the site when they could just give money to us directly. Another said that it's because they usually get a cheaper deal. But it's pretty obvious that the real reason is because they can reverse the charges in a heartbeat. It's never regulars who ask me this, just random guys passing through. And I'm sure they're just going from room to room hoping someone will say yes, just like the guys who yell "ass bb" hoping one of these models will do what he says for free.

Stop kicking him out and BAN him.

Some of these guys are so fuckin selfish. All they care about is getting their little dicks hard and cumming for as little money as possible. :P Even if you tell them the reasons you don't accept PayPal, they don't wanna hear it. "But I do it all the time bb"..."But I wont rip you off bb." Whatever, dude. If they got money to spend via PayPal, they could use that money to buy tokens on MFC. If they don't shut up about PayPal, ban them. You don't need the aggravation.

I would never ever use Paypal, but I was thinking of using Alertpay instead of tokens so MFC wouldn't get half my $$. ;)
Apparently a lot are doing it and MFC isn't catching em, hmm!

Just saw this this...yup, I'm not a cam girl...I'm pretty foolish when it comes to the logistics of how this stuff goes down. I do want to know about the chargebacks since I know when we were researching payment processors everyone kept telling us how high chargebacks are in the adult industry....

I love you sexy math!
So, I have a general question regarding Skype. I just logged on for the first time and there was a popup about international calling prices?! WTH? Is Skype not free for international calls or am I making a total Noob error?
Re: Pricing for Skype shows?
Skype to skype is free.
Skype to cell phone/landline takes credits but it's like $0.01/5 mins.
Land line/cell phone to skype, u can purchase a skype number for $100/year and get unlimited phone calls to ur skype number (great for niteflirt)
Re: Pricing for Skype shows?
I dont do skype. Then they will ask you a ton of questions about the show and haggle the price.
Time is money. I dont have the time or patience to deal with someone looking for a cheaper deal.
Either they can take me private or join my in Group on MFC. Group is super cheap for them.
When they ask about paypal then I know for sure they are time wasters. Most want a detailed written story about your prvt so they can jack off for free.
I ban or hit the ignore button. These men will never spend money. I didn't sign up to MFC to do skype shows. I signed up for the exposure & to make money.
Smooches,
Sam
Re: Pricing for Skype shows?
I have wondered this when on MFC and skype comes up: what stops the lady from accepting money up front for skype and then not delivering show? Model could just ban customer from room and he would be unable to advise others of scam except in lounge. Just like models have right to be concerned about chargebacks...I would figure customer concern about non delivery of show would be justified also. Maybe I merely am confused as to how the enitire scenario works?

Hence why it is best just to take them private there instead of going off the cam site to do business.
This way both get what they want. Without worries of being ripped off.
