    Smiley How profitable is cams.com?

    Hi, I create and account at cams.com, I have been reading here about this site and see good references. Now there's something I still not very clear on...the % comission, in the model Panel there's a place where we can choose our % comission, the maximum says 35% but put you in the last pages of the site, well I had choosed from this list 29% now my question is:

    * Do I get some percentage discount from the 29% I choose?????

    I'm asking this because I dont want to earn less than at least $1 dollar per minute of private show, and I was thinking of charge 3.99 for private's and 3.49 for nude, both at 29% aren't less than $1 dollar per minute, but I'm not sure if even if I choose 29% i will get some discount also on this, since the percentage comission of that site still not very clear for me.

    Also, do you girls consider 3.99 per/min low for that site??? or should I go up a bit higher? . I'm not going to be streaming there with HD or anything like that, I'm gona use it splitting with other cam sites, so any recomendation about how much to charge on that site, been new, no HD, could be helpful.

    Regards.

    So, they still will deduct 15 of the comission I choose???? so if I choose 35 i will get 20%...that's hilarious LOL, . Unfortunately for me, I dont see I can choose 45% the maximum I can choose is 35% (which means I will get 20% if I choose 35% instead of the 29% girls of 45% choose)....at 20% I will need to charge no minimum than 5.49 per min to get my minimum of $1 dollar per min of pvt...isn't 5.49 too expensive for this site??? or I can choose 5.99 with the eyes closed and dont be affraid of never get a pvt or almost nothing there?

    You earn up to 45% of the NET income. The NET is AFTER they take 10% for credit card fees and 25% for marketing fees. So you can only earn up to 45% of the 65% that is remaining. So this would be 29%. Here's the math...

    100 - 25 - 10 = 65 x .45 = 29.25 which they round to 29%. So if your private rate is $4.99/min that would be $1.44/min take home.

    If you choose 35% you will get this: 100 - 25 - 10 = 65 x .35 = 22.75 which they probably round to 23%. So if you have your private rate at $4.99/min that would be $1.14/mitake home.

    PLEASE someone correct me if I am wrong on this math!!!

    I also suggest setting it to the MAX 45% because I have seen pretty much NO difference in my traffic/placement when I lower the percentage.

    When I used to use cams.com, there was absolutely no difference in placement whether my percentage was 45% or 20%. They're pretty misleading when it comes to percentages.

    Thanks Sammi. I wish I can upload it to 45% but seems like they change this for the 'new girls who join the site' and now the maximum I can choose is 35% there doesnt appear nothing higher than that.... so unfortunately even if this change is for 'new models' it sucks, now the percentage instead of 15-45% goes from 10-35% maximum!!! ... Of course I will choose the maximum of 35% even if they put me in the very last page (but you already said this is a lie, maybe they use this thing to fool girls and make them choose low percentage so they earn even more and we work harder for nothing). I will go with 4.99 private/nude I hope I get privates there at this price :-) do any of you consider a high price like this is not very profitable in that site?.

    This should not be how it is.... did you sign up with a studio??? I have been able to set it to 45% from day one.

    I have my privates at $4.99/min and I get some, but not as much as I get people in nude chat which I change from $2.99-3.99/min depending on what I am doing on SM. Like I said, I do not hustle on cams AT ALL and only use it for going into nude chat mode while I do privates/gold shows on SM. I still do end up with a few privates tho. I imagine if you are hustling it you could do $4.99/min just fine... but maybe other girls who do not split cam with cams.com can chime in on that...?

    Split camming with SM and cams.com I am making about $50 per day on cams.com. Nothing compared to SM, but it is nice for passive income! I'll take it!

    Some websites are funny about % when it comes to certain countries, i.e. SM gives Romanians 30%

    I have the same issue though, and I am in the USA.

    I finally finished my signup on there, signed up directly through cams.com and it only gives me the option of 35% (which is way less than 35% because of the way they calculate). I'm not sure I even want to try the site now.

    I'm going to ask them what the problem is.

    Ohh please keep us update, maybe they change this % to the new girls who are joining (regardless of their country) but still that sucks, cause 15-35% = 20 so probably we're gona work for 22% or 20% this sucks cause we have to charge high rates to even earn $1 buck per minute while they (cams.com) earn like $3 per minute, this is hilarious

    if u work 5-7 hours a day and you pay attention to it ... and you nice to the customers, bla blam im sure You know the drill, the better you can do ( like all sites)........ Im averaging $1000/ 2 weeks there BUT most of my shows are done in Nude Section where I charge $1.99- $2.99 depending on my mood that day lol....
    The more privates you do ( so the more u stay in free chat to get privates) - the better your position in free chat.
    the more $ you do in nude, ( the more u stay logged in nude to get nude shows )- the better your pos in nude.

    Ranking in Free chat and Nude Chat are totally separate.

    My Account/ Change My Percentage. I can only set up maximum of 35% at least for me it shows like that, and also for laurielegs, but when I click on 'Start Broadcasting' a new window show up, where I can again select my percentage, and in this new window yes I can choose 45% the maximum, but if I go back to My Account/Change My Percentage there I have again maximum of 35%...

    So, I click on 'Start Broadcast' again and again choose 45%, went back to My Account - Change My percentage and voila! there I see the maximum of 45% instead of 35% like it were before...a minor bug seems, but Im glad I can choose 45% to at least get 29% now I can put my rates per minute better

    I read a bunch of threads about cams.com but couldn't find what I was looking for. I'm never sure if I should bump an old thread or start a new one

    For the girls on Cams.com, How do you get paid? Can I use my payoneer card? How hard will it be for me to split cam between SM and CAMS?, I do have adhd and sometimes ...ooh look a squirrel!

    Thanks for any replies

    You can get paid with direct deposit (best option), payoneer or check. Also, there is nude chat and I think that's great for splitcamming, you keep it "paused" and then unpause everytime you get taken private. Just remember to pause it again once the private ends!

    Party is like premium on SM (I turned off the party option) nude is all nude, no one has to request you to go to bude chat, you can just stream in nude the whole time, and you get paid for whoever comes in your room. Group chat is kind of like a gold show, I never really did them unless my GC queu got full. It's a way that they can get a really cheap show.

    I get paid via direct deposit. I tried doing checks 1 time and it took like 2 weeks to get my check.... Never Again. You can get paid via payoneer but the fee's are kind of high. I used payoneer with SM/DP and after awhile the fee's didn't seem worth it to me. So I switched back to getting a regular ol' check.

    Its not hard at all to spiltcam between Sm and Cams. I use Cams as my backup site as well. Its just takes some getting use to because you have to be able to multitask. Like someone mention take advantage of nude chat. When I'm doing a show on SM I switch to nude chat on Cams. When I'm doing a show on Cams I use the break button on SM. If you don't have the break button you can ask SM to add it for you.

    It's the same at me. I've just made an account there. The highest % for me is 35% too. BUT when I'm going online a window pops up and ask about % and there I can chose 45%. So its strange, I don't have any idea why is it like that.
    I tried cams today but it was slow for me and only the guys without credits wanted to chat The ones with money just came in and out all the time. I didn't have a single show. OK, i wasn't too patient, I logged out after 15 minutes

    Myself and other SW models have said that Cams is slow. I've been on the site for a couple of years and never have made that much. The only reason I stay on there is because I do make a little something but there are days where I make $0. If I didn't make any money at all or found another backup site where I made more then I'd drop Cams and never look back. Also you can mute members who don't have credit cards.
