It would be nice to have threads for everyone that can't get into model's only to get information on how to cam on Streamate more effectively.
So here we are!
Share any information about camming on Streamate.com or ask questions related to camming on SM here!

Important links of note:

https://www.camgirlwiki.com/wiki/Streamate <this wiki has tons of info from wonderful women on this forum, please read it thoroughly!
https://twitter.com/StreamateModels <this is Vanessa, the in house recruiter. You should, if at all possible, sign up under her if you can. She isn't a studio, and doesn't take any money from you.
http://streamaterecruiting.com/ <This is the site that Vanessa uses to recruit. Use the form there to sign up. It is NOT a studio and is the same as joining directly from streamate.com, except Vanessa can answer questions in a pinch if you've exhausted all other avenues and still need a question answered.

Models, please add anything of note and feel free to ask questions!
 
Hey Im new on streamate and i have question about payment. First money I earned at the end of september but couldnt have payout because I didnt have minimum $100. From few weeksn I have ad also not long time ago I found out that payment are retarded 3 weeks because of preventing froud or something like that.
BUt I also check that pay-week ends on saturday night and from sundy is new pay-week but is tuesday nd i still didnt get my money. Thery wrote on site that processing is from 3 to 5 days,but in reports and payment history is still nothing.
Maybe u remember after wht time u received your first payment. I use cosmopayment
I really hope that's bad translation or mispelling.

Have you tried contacting Streamate support? They're usually pretty good in getting back to people.
Also, when did you actually hit the $100 payout minimum? Because the 3 weeks starts from that moment I believe. But yeah, contact Streamate support about it, maybe there's an issue.

Probably a language/translation thing. I mean that is technically the correct *original* use of the word and is how it is still used in many other languages. A good example is that the word for “late” in french is “retard”.

Hey I tried looking for an answer but it seems this gets ignored on the questions I did find. I'm trying to decide what is my best choice for payment method. I am a US model. The other site (mfc) I have it set as direct deposit but I guess SM does not offer that. I really dislike the thought of checks being on a 3 week hold thing.. It makes it difficult to plan out when to work more in case of emergencies happening. Is check my best bet though? I've never used wire transfer and not sure that's available to me anyways.

I'm moving to SM for a change AND more reliable income so I want to make sure I am using a reliable payment method as well with them.

If you are in the states, check. It mails out from Seattle on Thursday, and the majority of the time arrives at my house on the east coast on Monday. I have been doing this for almost 8 years and just now I had issues not getting my check on time. That happens to be my mail carrier's issue, not Streamate. When I lived in a house with its own box, never late unless the weather.

Im in Poland, I contacted support and everything is fine.I see already that payment. They will transfer money to me on Friday.And yes , I wanted to say that im waiting too long ,so is late:)
If you see it in your payment history, then you should get it tomorrow. Im not sure what time Cosmo finishes the deposit. I hear from most models they get their money from 8 am est - 12 pm est. Not sure what time that will be, maybe earlier since you are on a different timezone.

If you don't get your money, and it's Tuesday. Message support. If they are taking too long to answer, message me and I'll get you in contact with Liz. She gets shit done when support is being incompetent.

Hello everyone! I registered on sm just a few days ago and want to try it out but I have some questions, so if anyone could answer I would be very grateful.

1. If I registered as solo female, is it possible somewhere in the settings (or through support) to add a performer? I would like to sometimes stream with my boyfriend and on CB you can change it from female to couple anytime you want to, so is it possible on sm as well? Or will I only be able to stream alone? (or can I open a second account for us as a couple? would that be even worth it?)
2. Is is actually profitable to be a couple on sm?
3. Why cannot I view any other streams? I am registered, logged in, but every time I click on a model on the main page it takes me to an ad site (fling) and asks me questions... and I cannot exit it.

Thank you!

(or can I open a second account for us as a couple? would that be even worth it?)

you will have to message support to get them added and authorized on your account. if a support member tries to tell you differently, bullshit. models bring partners on their solo account all the time. hell i used to. message me and i'll shoot you liz's email (streamate employee who gets shit done. i don't know her official business title ) for her to help.


2. Is is actually profitable to be a couple on sm?

depends on the couple i think. i can think of a handful of top models who cam exclusively with a partner, but sometimes they get on solo too. i'm constantly asked if i have a partner to cam with again, so there are members who do want it.


3. Why cannot I view any other streams? I am registered, logged in, but every time I click on a model on the main page it takes me to an ad site (fling) and asks me questions... and I cannot exit it.

because models can be catty competitive bitches (my words) so streamate eliminated model accounts from viewing or chatting with other cams. they don't allow any model to model harassment happening on their site. offsite, different story. i have had some models get real fucking cunty on twitter about me in the past. if you want to watch cams and tip, create a member account. i suggest creating it under your cammodels link.

@AudriTwo Thank you so much! Oh, I thought it was the model account, just wasn't sure. It's really sad when that happens. World could be such a nice place, if people were nicer to each other.

It seems I cannot write you a message here, I wrote to support already so I hope they will be able to help.

So... this will be a dumb question... but what should I actually do on SM? I am used to CB/ MFC - where you know, you talk, dance, do stuff... but this is my first time using private site and I have no idea what to do to attract people. They just come, I say hi, and they run. For some reason I cannot view other rooms, I always get redirected to some fling site, so I have no way to get inspired. Any tips will help! Thanks ♥

Honestly, depending on how long you've been on SM, this may be a glitch or bug or wtfever that may or may not be a work in progress. A lot of us have reported it being slow and quiet lately.

The best way to attract viewers is to use a profile photo that shows off your best assets.

Really? This is my second day trying actually! I felt a little discouraged after no one even said hi!

I get a lot of people who come in say hi and leave. But for every 4 of those i usualy get at least one who stays to tale me pvt/exc. I did however have my first night where I made next to nothing last week. I can usually count on between 50-100 a night but i made 5.... Wondering where the slowdown is coming from...

What works varies from model to model. Some sit at their desk and edit or do other desk work, some dance, some chat.

People cycle through rooms pretty quickly, they're just clicking through to see who's online to decide what they want. Make sure to avoid greeting them by name, that can make them feel put on the spot and scare them off.

There's no capability for models to enter each other's chat rooms. If I log in to my model account, there is nowhere for me to access the Streamate homepage. If I change the URL to streamate.com, I can view the homepage and enter rooms, but I am not logged in. I highly recommend making a member account and using it a little bit. It's free to create a member account, you don't need to buy gold up front. Instead, you put a credit or debit card on file, and if you tip or buy a show, they charge you after.

But that's the thing, I know I cannot visit other people when I am logged in as a model, but I cannot even create a member account, it always redirects me to a "fling" site even when I try to register.

That's bizarre, I get this when I hit sign up:

Signup under your model name.cammodels.com. that is your affiliate link. If you spend money, you'll get 20% back.

I don't ever check the site from streamate.com. I always use cammodels.com because if I accidentally sign in with my model login, I won't keep getting redirected to the streamatemodels.com instead of streamate.com

I actually contacted Vanessa to ask if there is a chance my country is blocked. That way I would not be able to access the site, only as a model. Even my cammodels link won't load! All I see is a blank page... So to me, the block seems like the most possible answer.

Okay! SM is indeed blocked in my country, so at least I know now! Also... the time of the month is comming and I wanted to ask, do you go on SM even on your period? I mean on MFC you can play it cool by focusing on other things, but since SM is a private site I feel like people might not be interested. But I might be wrong, I mean I have read about members who only wanted to talk and things like that. But I would appreciate any advice!

Sea sponges! And if you're not into that idea (they're sorta not fun to deal with IMO) you have to other holes to go off of. Usually if you just state what you're willing to do in your topic, someone eventually will be into it. Don't want to do that? Femdom! SPH, CEI and cross-dressing fetishists have a large audience on SM.

I literally never do masturbation shows, endometriosis makes it too painful to be worth the money. I do tease for the vanilla fellas and fetishes or domination for kinky folks.

You could get a VPN and view it from a different country up address. But depending on how severe the laws are in your country for pornography, I advise not to.

I stick a menstrual cup up and then a sea sponge. I would have issues of the sponge getting wedged up near my cervix and sometimes I get leakage with cups. This method has been the best where I can still do shows with smaller toys. If people ask for any bigger, I explain I'm not using big toys atm. Sometimes people will stay.

I just started on Streamate about two weeks ago now and really enjoy it. I'm Streamate feels different from CB, in that there is less of a tip culture (not that I have cammed on there, just my experience with research and friends on there). So I guess I have two questions then:

1. Do you do things for tips? I usually just flail around wiggling however and people seem to like it. I mostly get bored and try to move around as much as possible. What sort of things do you do for tips?

2. I have a Lovense Lush (from camming privately) but everything I keep reading says that there is no way to connect it to Streamate? I see girls using them all the time on there, especially on the front page, so I was just curious if anyone knows how to connect? I think a Tip Vibe would really help interact more with my audience since sometimes I have like 15 folks in my room but no one really going private or anything, which is weird for how talkative and silly we get.

Anywho, thanks for your help friends!

xoxo

1. I do tips for things like boobs flash, ass flash, twerk or stand up. I don't move unless someone pays me to lol.

2. You can connect toys through broadcasting "SMconnect" there is a little icon in the upper right hand corner of the broadcaster to connect it. There's more info on which toys work with it here https://streamatehelp.com/smconnect/

I do flashes for tips. If I do too much teasing or moving around in free chat, there's less incentive for people to tip or go private, which is a little different from token sites where teasing/dancing encourages tips.
