Webcam Model Jobs / Site Reviews

LiveJasmin

LiveJasmin is the most noticeable video chat site of 2012 and XBIZ Awards "Live Video Chat Site of the Year" winner. It's also my #1 recommended cam site for beginner webcam models. Here's why:

Simple registration process (make money in 24 hours)
User-friendly interface
High commission model referral program
Option to block geographic areas from viewing your webcam/profile

When you register as a new performer with LiveJasmin, your profile will be displayed near the top of the profile list to give you maximum exposure to paying members. During this promotion, you get $0.98/minute. After this period ends, you can charge between $1.99-$3.99 per minute.

Important Details:

Models Accepted: Female, male, transgender
Payout: Every two weeks (10th and 25th of every month)
Payment method: Check, wire transfer, Payoneer
Cost/minute: Flexible, $1.99-$3.99
Referral Program: Up to 36% of referred model's earnings
Bonus Program: Depends on month

CameraBoys

The best cam site for male performers. CameraBoys is host to the world's largest online gay webcam community. As a camboy, you can perform for men, women, or both.

CameraBoys uses the same live network and sign up process that made LiveJasmin so successful: simple user-interface, high quality video feed, and the highest traffic flows on the web.

The sign up process goes through the LiveJasmin system, but you will also be registered on CameraBoys with over 1 million paying members!

Important Details:

Models Accepted: Male only
Payout: Every two weeks (10th and 25th of every month)
Payment method: Check, wire transfer, Payoneer
Cost/minute: Flexible, $1.99-$3.99
Referral Program: Up to 36% of referred model's earnings

iFriends

When you sign up to the iFriends network, you'll appear on about 10 related cam sites simultaneously. The payout system is one of the best -- when you deliver a new client to iFriends, you get 100% of that customer's expenditures with you!

That said, iFriends will not provide as much traffic as some of the more "beginner" friendly sites, so the competition with other models can be fierce.

Note: iFriends will hold 10% of your earnings for 6 months in order to cover any chargebacks or refunds.

Important Details:

Models Accepted: Female, male
Payout: Weekly (every Tuesday)
Payment method: WebPowerFX
Cost/minute: Flexible, 50%, 100% (on referred clients)
Referral Program: $100 for each new Video Host you recruit
Bonus Program: Depends on month
Block country/state option: Yes

Internet Modeling

Internet Modeling (IM) has some of the highest paid camgirls and camguys in the industry. On average, models make $500-$1000/week working 20 to 25 hours, with some models making over $1000 in a single day! This is possible because models get paid for each and every member chatting to you in Premium chat. So if there are 10 visitors chatting to you at $0.80/minute, you'd get paid $8.00/minute.

Models registered on Internet Modeling appear on the largest network of high traffic adult websites. Having said that, Internet Modeling does NOT give you the option to block your webcam.

Note that cam models from Thailand, Philippines, Indonesia, Venezuela, Colombia, Romania, Ukraine, and Nigeria will NOT be accepted to the Internet Modeling network of sites.

Important Details:

Models Accepted: Female, male
Payout: Weekly (every Monday)
Payment method: Check, direct deposit (US only), Payoneer
Cost/minute: Fixed, $0.80 per member (Premium) / $1.00 (Exclusive)
Referral Program: Get 10% of each of your referred model's earnings for life; PLUS 10% of their referred model's income for life
Bonus Program: Up to 30% weekly bonus based on earnings
Block country/state option: No

RIV Cams

Available in 7 languages (Italian, English, Spanish, French, German, Turkish, Swedish), RIV Cams is popular in the Italian & European market.

More than a typical cam site, RIV Cams models are able to personally select what they want to share or sell with the community members. This include photos, videos, lingerie, and erotic stories. You set the price.

You can also earn money by giving out contact information like email, instant messenger, or private phone numbers. (I strongly suggest you get a second phone and use it only for this purpose.) So if 20 members buy your cell phone number for the price you set (e.g. 15 euros), you'd earn 300 euros in gross sales (20 sales x 15 euros = 300 euros).

Their website is confusing to say the least -- one page says you get paid monthly, and another says every two weeks. It's too bad that you have to sign up BEFORE you can access the agreement -- maybe that's because they don't want you to know that RIV models don't get paid until they reach the minimum payout of 300 Euros!

Though well established in the Italian market, English speakers would be wise to stay clear of this one.

Important Details:

Models Accepted: Female, male
Payout: Every two weeks (1st and 16th of every month)
Payment method: Wire transfer, Magnum credit card
Cost/minute: Flexible -- 50% commission
Referral Program: 10% of each referred model earnings for life
Bonus Program: 50 euro sign up bonus (must meet minimum payout requirement)
Block country/state option: No
