    i don't doubt the rare possibility of a 20k paycheck though, especially if you include the contest prizes. but even without that, consider that there are top models who are popular on other platforms like Onlyfans or are well known porn stars with their own fanbase. surely they have brought some of their own traffic to SM which means they get to keep 75% of transactions from a portion of their customer base instead of 35%. with that in mind I could reasonably see a few of them getting close to a 20k week. though like you said i'm sure the amount of hours takes a huge toll and they likely take a big chunk of time off.

    at the end of the day i don't care and am not personally comparing myself or letting it affect me or my hustle in any way; i'm a fairly lazy model that only works part time and could never compete with top earners. i'm in the top 500 right now and i'll be happy to get a couple hundred bucks prize for putting in about 25 hours this week. but i am still fascinated by the earning potential of some models and what it takes to get there. i love when people post about earnings purely because i'm curious, and sometimes it is a nice motivator to try to push myself even a little bit harder.

    Absolutely! I believe in that 20k if we include contest prize and 75% from ur dudes in it! I think ladies with 200$ average can make it up there. If you can put hours without damaging quality you golden

    It didn't make me reverify at all after testing it with just my chair in the frame. I refreshed the page and took another picture without me in the frame and streamed for a while with no reverification request. Weird, who knows tbh.

    But if you put something like 70 hours to get there, most likely you gonna rest for a week or so afterwards. In that case you’ll have to divide that gold by 2 or so. With this kind of math I see the point of working crazy hours for something like 15k but for the middles like me, somewhere between 50-100 not so much
    yes this is my exact thinking with the contest. I usually just aim for the top 100 to 200. I don't try to go for the top 50 or 75 or less because it would burn me out completely for the next week. id most likely take off 3 or 4 days. id rather take off 1 or 2 days at most and start fresh.

    what is most impressive are models who can push for the top 50 or less and then log on and work the other weeks of the month and only take a few days off.
    member Floridasundoll gets crazy kudos for being able to do that!
    I also think that building up bit by bit helps a lot
    a few years ago only able to do 2 hour shifts and be so burnt out. but I have slowly built my hourly rate and my ability to stay online longer and work more days out of the week without burning out or working too much.
    to me personally it isn't work the extra hours for the contest. however I technically SHOULD have this week gone to what I call "burn out" because I have my period coming up.
    but my period won't start until Wednesday, so id like to get top 100s and still work sun, mon, Tuesday. to me that had more value than aiming for the top 30 literally just as you stated.

    God dammit! I can’t work in these conditions. It’s quite then suddenly a wave of traffic and I collected amazing golds in a gold show and boom it disconnects just few seconds before the show finishes. It happened so many times this week. I feel
    Outrages and quite angry with the website this week.. I might just have a look at stripchat and mfc and see how the things are there

    I reads your posts . No they shouldn’t stop contests no way , it’s huge motivation for many models who rank high which hold majority of $$ anyway , but what they should do is stop doing upgrades/updates during the contest so we can just enjoy the healthy competition without fucking tech issues. Just take a site for maintenance for a day or so and announce it before would be way better
    I made so far over 5000$ in 35 hours and I am close to top 20. Without contest $/ hour is way higher that for sure but there are lots of models online as well
    I made 2000$ on Sunday in 10 hours which is good but the rest of the week is quite dreadful

    That’s totally correct

    I generally think petitions are bullshit but if you really wanted to try to get one going, I'd make it a more reasonable compromise, like a petition for 6 contests a year or something.
    That’s totally correct, however I still love contest , no way I would stream so many hours in totally glitchy conditions nor other high top earners

    Most I ever done was 12500$ (70 hours though) In a long week contest and I placed third . So pretty sure 20 k is real number for the firs place. 10 000 is top 5
    Nowadays it’s 180-200$/hour for me in non contest week abd around 130/hour in contest week ( but mostly because if Sundays only good contest days)
    I dunno if it’s make whole picture more clear or not хх
    I got older and lower in energy and can’t do 60-70 hours anymore lol

    I just did a search and they did that with my entire PPV videos too!
    They are charging much less than I do.
    Probably explains why my video sales are down, because these are sold on all of my platforms. I filmed them on my own time, NOT using SM recorder.
    Edit to add: Another thing that I noticed while doing a search for my cam name, is that the small town I live in is listed.
    That's nice.

    it’s crystal clear! Thank you for sharing!
    All I can say is a huge respect and admiration to you and all hard working woman up there! Even those 10 hours on sundays! When I go 200/hr 5 hours would be my top , if I do 8 most likely I won’t be full speed day after… anyway it’s a whole dif conversation
    Congrats on ur top 20!

    OK I freaked out when I checked because every single one of my PPV library are there too, but then when I click to try to watch, it only shows a 9 second preview (with a blurred out filter so you can't even see the preview clearly) then redirects to a Join page. I don't think they get to watch unless they join streamate and purchase like any other viewer.

    If I'm wrong I'll be removing all my vids from Streamate, but I think it's just an advertising ploy. Do your PPV vids have the blur filter when you click them from jerkmate?


    edited to add - Because the jerkmate profile had my videos listed as "free" I went ahead and signed up for an account through Jerkmate to see if I could watch any of my own vids free. I had to give a debit card in order to access the site. I searched my cam name and clicked one of my supposedly free videos and it took me to a page to buy it, full price, same as I charge on my profile.

    I haven't had a SM account for awhile because several years ago they kept cancelling mine a few days after I opened it (I guess because they cross referenced and saw I'm a model and don't spend?)

    Some things I learned - you can't sign up with an empty prepaid card, tried it and it declined. They preauthorize your card for $2 automatically. If you don't pay attention on signup it automatically signs you up for a weird dating site for around $15 a month. You have to uncheck the box or it charges you for that. Also interesting is it gave me an initial daily limit of $150 and told me to contact support to raise it. I'm glad I made the account. It's helpful to see what a customer sees on their side.

    I don't see any location listed on my profile. That's concerning that yours is showing a city.

    ugh.... How annoying. They disabled my login for my customer account and permanently banned me just now from making a customer account with no reason given. wtf Does Streamate not allow us to have a customer account?

    i just did a google video search of my stagename and found a site with about a dozen recordings of what look like full gold shows, but they are all behind a private access wall that is only available to "members." based on the thumbnail, some shows look recent and some are like six years old, but they all seem to have been posted there in the last month.

    i'm not sure if it's a streamate affiliate or not but i just sent a DMCA request email to Liz with all of the links listed and I got a quick response saying "requests to remove have been sent." so we will see if it works.

    if you'd like to know the website name, feel free to message me.

    I'm not a contest model but you called out my cam style, lmao. I will hustle content and non performance sw like passive sext and phone income on my weeks off. The whole miss me hustle really works though because all my clients chase me down.

    You really do make a point. I had to take two weeks off during the time streamate accidentally shut my account down. Finally got back on and made $650 in like barely 3 hours��

    Can anyone give me any info on MassPay? Mostly I need to know how much it costs to get paid and transfer it to a UK bank account.

    Now that BM are sadly using another company for payouts I'm considering starting over as independent once again and so far the direct payout options are just as abysmal as this other company. I don't like the fact that MassPay don't or won't list their fees on their website. That makes me very uneasy!

    I use Masspay to my UK bank account and it costs $4.10 to withdraw, I've used them since the start of the year when SM dropped the Worldpay option and it's been the same each time, the exchange rate varies of course but you see that on the final page before you withdraw. HTH!

    i don't doubt the rare possibility of a 20k paycheck though, especially if you include the contest prizes. but even without that, consider that there are top models who are popular on other platforms like Onlyfans or are well known porn stars with their own fanbase. surely they have brought some of their own traffic to SM which means they get to keep 75% of transactions from a portion of their customer base instead of 35%. with that in mind I could reasonably see a few of them getting close to a 20k week. though like you said i'm sure the amount of hours takes a huge toll and they likely take a big chunk of time off.

    at the end of the day i don't care and am not personally comparing myself or letting it affect me or my hustle in any way; i'm a fairly lazy model that only works part time and could never compete with top earners. i'm in the top 500 right now and i'll be happy to get a couple hundred bucks prize for putting in about 25 hours this week. but i am still fascinated by the earning potential of some models and what it takes to get there. i love when people post about earnings purely because i'm curious, and sometimes it is a nice motivator to try to push myself even a little bit harder.
    I am a porn star and a while back I did a collab with another pornstar during a contest week and we did G/G shows. We worked at least the full 7 days and with everything included (prize money, bonus payouts and sales of videos we clipped from the show) we did just over 20k. Of course that then had to be divided by two and we placed about 5th or 7th (I dont remember exactly cause the goal was not to get first but just to get as much money as we could). It was intense though as we were working about 10 hours everyday, we had to completely ignore our families and we ate like shit. I still worked the week after but I was doing like 3 hours a day because I was pretty worn out from the week before. Just wanted to drop that number here to give some of you an idea of what these 1st and 2nd place earners are making.
