Studios – Creating a Master account

What is a Master Account?

A Master account is the main account of a studio. This account should only be accessed by the Owner of the studio and is the only account that can request payment from the studio.This account cannot broadcast and the profile is hidden from public view.

Make sure you enter your full name as it appears on your identification and don’t forget to tick the box

 

 

Click “Next” to be taken to “Live Snapshot”. This is required so the approval team can compare the identification to the screen cap taken. Click on the “Start Camera”. When you are happy with the photo click “Capture”.

 

 

You do have the opportunity to redo your photo if you’re not happy with it.

US Direct Deposit

Direct deposit payments are similar to wires, but because of the way they are processed they are faster and there is no cost to the broadcaster.

PLEASE NOTE: While there is “no fee” from us to send the payment, your bank may charge a fee. This is not something we have any control over so please check with your bank.

Direct deposit payments are processed WEEKLY on FRIDAYS with a minimum payment request of $100.

Payments must be requested by TUESDAY 11:59pm EST to be included for payment on FRIDAY.

Payment will show on your bank statement as: TLE OPPORTUNITIE DIR DEP

REQUIRED INFORMATION:

The following is a list of fields required for Direct deposit payments.

Due to changes made by our Direct deposit processor it will not be possible to add Direct deposit as a payment method to multiple accounts using the same Social Security Number (SSN).

How does it affect you?

  • If you only have one account no changes need to be made and payments can continue as normal.
  • If you have more than one account, only one can be used to cash out with Direct deposit as the payment method. For your additional accounts please use Cash to tokens as the payment method, you can then transfer the tokens to the account you have set up for Direct deposit through the tip jar or as gifts. Payment can then be requested from the Direct deposit account

CAM4 Content Policy

We love performers and the experiences they create. As part of our commitment to helping performers create memorable, unique experiences, CAM4 is proud to feature the fact that we do not preemptively edit content with arbitrary limitations. Ours is truly a platform for the masses, with few limitations. While Broadcasters utilizing our platform are free to create the content they wish to create, we ask that all Broadcasters abide by the following few guidelines.

Children

  • Children or minors cannot appear on cam. Even in non-nude, non-suggestive instances – a minor cannot pass the age verification and is not approved for broadcasting.
  • Child pornography (CP) in any form is an immediate ban and additional legal action.
  • CAM4 does not discriminate against performers who have children. Performers with children are not barred from broadcasting on CAM4 or being promoted on CAM4 social media.

Animals

  • Animals can appear on cam if they are not involved in any sexual capacity.
  • Bestiality is an immediate ban. A nude performer cannot interact with an animal in any way.

Violence

  • Rape, forced sex and other violence, simulated or otherwise, is not allowed on cam. Cutting is not allowed on cam.

Incest

  • Family members are not permitted to appear on the same cam. Incest, actual or simulated, is not permitted on cam.

Substances

  • In general, alcohol and tobacco are allowed on cam, but illegal drugs are not.
  • If a person on cam is visibly intoxicated or passed out, the show will be closed immediately, a warning will be issued to the broadcaster, and repeat offenders will be banned.

Body Functions

  • Urine is allowed on cam. However, being urinated on, or urinating on someone else, is not permitted.
  • Scat (poo) is not permitted on cam.

Prerecorded Shows

  • Prerecorded videos are not permitted. All broadcasts must be live.

QR Codes

You may not embed or overlay QR codes in your broadcast streams or uploaded videos.  We cannot allow this practice because QR codes expose users of our platform to malicious malware and security risks.  Links to social media must be confined to the designated area of your profile, and not within your stream.

  • Buildings, traffic or advertisements are permitted in the background of broadcasts, but YOU MAY NOT broadcast from inside a retail clothing or merchant store, market or grocery store and you will be banned immediately for doing so.
  • To avoid claims of invasion of privacy, CAM4 recommends that performers don’t broadcast from a height of more than 5’5” above ground.
  • Broadcasting from playgrounds, schools, hospitals, graveyards, or churches is not permitted.
  • Keep the great outdoors pristine and clean up after yourself. If you leave anything behind while broadcasting on the Cam4 platform, you may be subject to sanctions, banishment and criminal prosecution.

Streaming Content (Games)

  • Performers are encouraged to stream video games or similar content, similar to Twitch.

CAM4 Tube Content

CAM4 has partnered with multiple tube sites (Pornhub, xHamster, etc) to create channels featuring recorded content from CAM4 creators, like you! Tube sites allow for your content to be visible to a new audience.

Who will be featured on the channel?

All CAM4 creators are welcome to submit content to be purchased for the CAM4 tube channels.

What do performers get for being featured on the channel?

The goal of the CAM4 tube channels is to help creators grow their brand and audience by showcasing them across these platforms. All content will be purchased directly from you (the creator). Additionally, your CAM4 username will be embedded into the video to increase the visibility of your CAM4 profile.

How do I get my content featured on a CAM4 tube site?

Just contact us at video@cam4.com or reach out to your regional manager.

Will the videos be used anywhere else?

The video content submitted will be used across CAM4’s dedicated tube sites. The content submitted will be watermarked with the CAM4 logo to prevent reproduction.

Will CAM4 keep the recordings?

The original content you submit will be regularly deleted from our storage. The final videos we upload to tube sites will be stored in our secure database.

Who gets the ad revenue?

Ad revenue is not the goal of these partnerships – our goal is to drive traffic back to CAM4 and your profiles.

Can you tag my porn star or model profiles in the videos?

Absolutely. By tagging your profiles and social channels, new viewers and fans will be able to connect with you even further. Viewers will be able to find your dedicated pages and featured live shows. Need a profile? We will work with you to get your profile set up within CAM4!

Do the videos need to be just me? Or can I record something with a partner?

We accept either! The content is purchased and paid out according to how many performers are in the video.

What type of videos are you looking for?

The style of the video should feel intimate and cam-like. We love to see content that reflects the real people we see on CAM4. Content that feels homemade (but not low quality) does very well. Additionally, content that is not in a traditional cam location (on a bed; in a bedroom) does well (outside, in a car, bathroom, etc)

Are any other specifications required?

The content needs to be High Definition (1080p minimum) but can be filmed horizontally or vertically. The length required is 15-20 minutes and it must end in a cumshot or orgasm.
