Model FAQs

Cameralux

Cameralux is a webcam community. Many of our users have been spending money on the site for years and are always looking to meet and spend money on a new face. Before you start modeling on the site, we encourage you to check out Live sex cam and see it or yourself.

Cameralux provides our models the highest earning potential for webcam models.

• We pay the highest commissions - 50% of all Net Revenue for models who sign up directly with the site.
• We provide unparalleled model support
• Cameralux is always full of users at all times of the day.
• We guarantee on-time weekly payments once your tax form and payout method has been properly set up and approved.

How does it work?

Cameralux is the first and most popular high end model webcam community. Once you've created an account, you'll be able to chat and interact with our models for free by entering their chat room or communicating with them through their profile, fan club, or our forum. You can view their webcam if the model has "free video mode" enabled or if you enter a voyeur, private, or VIP show.

Where's my activation code?

If you just joined Cameralux and didn't receive your activation code, please check your spam folder. If it's not there, you may request another code. If you still don't receive it, please contact our support team and we can manually activate your account.

I'm having trouble logging into the Cams section, can you please help?

If you've forgotten your password, you may reset it here. If you've been blocked or are having any other issue logging in, please contact our support team.

What's the difference between a voyeur chat, a private chat and a Group chat?

A voyeur chat is a chat with a model where you can view her webcam but can not type in the chat room or make requests. In a private chat, you may type, however multiple viewers can join and make requests to the model. You may need to fight for her attention and she may not offer as much as in a Private show. In a Private chat, you are the only customer allowed to type to the model and the model usually offers the most in these types of shows.

Why isn't my Cameralux Plus members area password working?

We refer to the paid members area of Cameralux as the Plus section. If you're not a paid Plus member, you must sign up for this seperately. If you've already purchased a membership and your Plus password isn't working, it's likely you're logging into the Cams section rather than the Plus section. Please make sure you're using this link to login.

What's a Token?

A token is the monetary term we chose to give the units used to purchase cam shows, fan clubs, on demand content, and store items. $1 equals one credit. We like to keep it simple. Tokens are purchased by depositing funds in your account.

How do I become a model for Cameralux?

Please fill out our model application.

Can I broadcast my webcam or mobile cam to a model (cam2cam)?

Yes, you can use our cam to cam feature in VIP mode with the model of your choice. Simply click on the Share Camera button or webcam icon in the chat room during a VIP session to enable this feature. It will work for desktop and mobile users (similar to Facetime). Any desktop browser should work but Safari on iOS and Firefox on Android are recommended for mobile cam2cam.

What is a fan club?

A fan club is an individual page where models can offer some or all of the following: photos, videos, diaries, and recorded private shows archives.

How do I access a model's fan club?

The easiest way to directly access a model's fan club is to click the fan club icon on their thumbnail in the model listing or directly on the fan club page. You may also click on a model's profile and click the fan club link once inside (if they have one). Then, click on the join button inside of the preview fan club page of the model you'd like to join. Once you've made your purchase, just return to that model's preview fan club page and you will be granted access to all of her content. No additional password is required to enter. Simply login with your current account information and re-enter the model's fan club.

How much is a fan club?

Each model can set their own rates, so it will vary from model to model. Access is granted on a monthly basis so if you'd like to continue to access your favorite model's fan club, just join and that's it. If you'd like to stop viewing a model's fan club, you may cancel here.

Does every model have a fan club?

No, not every model will have a fan club. Feel free to make a request of the model if they don't currently have one available.

I purchased on demand content from a model. How do I access it?

Simply login and go to the on demand purchased section.

What do I do if my question isn't answered here?

Feel free to visit our support site open 24/7.

What is a webcam model?

A webcam model is a person that performs live video chats online. The more time a customer spends watching your private show the more money you will earn. Models should tell their clients upfront what they are willing to do and not willing to do so there is not a misunderstanding. Generally, webcam models are asked to pose nude and it is considered to be part of the job.

A webcam model chats live on webcam from her computer with users from around the world. Webcam models can earn incredible amounts of money from the comfort of their own home. You do not need any experience and if you are attractive with a great personality you can be very successful.

We are currently casting women between the ages of 18 and 55 to be webcam models on Cameralux Model Sign up page.

Webcam modeling is easy and fun, all you have to do is be yourself and users will pay you generously for it.

How does the signup process work?

Signing up is quick and easy. You can begin working in just 1 business day!

• Begin the sign up process here.
• Once you’ve verified your email (check your spam folder to make sure our messages aren't being sent there), you will be emailed a link to your model application.
• Once you submit your ID for compliance verification, and its approved, you will be emailed with a link to go back into your application to e-sign your documents and set up your user name and password.
• After completing your application, you will be able to log in immediately.
• Email form https://www.cameralux.us/webcam/contact if you have questions or need any help.

Do I need to look like a model?

No, its not all about looks. Your personality will determine how successful you are. Each customer is looking for a unique type of model. We only recommend you should try to look your best as you’ll feel great, feel confident and you will naturally be ready to have some fun!

How much can I earn?

You will get paid every minute a customer is watching your private show. You can set your own rates for both private and exclusive chat. In private chat, more than one customer can be in your room. For example, if there are 10 customers you will earn anywhere from £6 - £10+ a minute. On average our models make anywhere from £250 to £2000 a week, which works out about £30 - £60 an hour with some models earning in excess of £5000 per week!

How often will I get paid?

We currently pay our webcam every Wednesday between 9am - 5pm. Payments will be processed and sent to your bank account 10 days after each week ends. Our payment period runs from Sunday to Sunday. Unlike most other webcam modelling sites, we don't have a minimum payment amount in order for you to receive your money!

How do I get paid?

We currently pay our models via a bank transfer service into a UK bank account, or via Paypal.

Will I show up as a webcam model on a background check?

No. As you are self employed and are contracted through us there isn't any need to let anyone know, either in any current or future job roles. The records will only show that you are a self-employed contractor with Orion30 LLP.

Is my personal information kept private?

Of course, we absolutely do not share your information with anyone. Your information is only used for your initial approval and payments. You can also block out cities, counties, and even whole countries to help protect your identity.

Can I block out certain areas so people I know can’t see me?

Yes. As a webcam model, you should feel safe and secure. We have a geographic restriction feature so you can block out cities, counties, and even whole countries. Keep in mind the more areas you block the less traffic you will get.

I don’t live in the UK, can I still work?

Yes, we accept models from all over the world.

What do I need?

You need to be 18 years old or over and will be asked to provide a copy of relevant identification. You will also need:

Desktop PC, or laptop (a Mac will also work)

Webcam – HD to maximize your earnings (recommended) High speed internet connection with an upload speed above 0.65 MB/s. You can test your speed at speedtest.net. We recommend a HD webcam capable of streaming in 720P.

Are there any fees at all?

No not at all, we do not ask for any fees from you, it’s completely free!

How do I become a successful Webcam model?

Being successful in the webcam modeling industry starts with being reliable to your customers. Whether its publicizing your schedule and sticking to it, or giving your customers the experience they're after, the biggest tip we give new models is to just keep broadcasting often.

We recommend you create a twitter account to build followers and promote your Cameralux link when online.

We'll also send you a link to more tips and advice from models when you sign up.

How do I get paid?

Fill out your tax settings in your model dashboard

Cameralux models are considered self-employed contractors and are paid compensation for their services online. In order for you us to pay you, we are legally required to get a w9 (USA models) or w8 (international models) from you. This means (if you are in the USA) you will receive a 1099-MISC from us annually. Also, we do not take out any taxes from your payouts, so it is your responsibility to save for and pay your own taxes.

The first thing to do when you log into your model console as a new model is to fill out your tax settings. You can do this by clicking on "provide tax information" or "tax settings" in your model console. Follow the easy steps provided to you to electronically fill out your w9 or w8 form. Once complete, our accounting department will review and approve it. If any errors are made or corrections are needed, this form will be kicked back to you to make the necessary updates.

Please keep in mind, we cannot pay you until this step is completed and approved.

Set up your payout method in your model dashboard

Now that your tax settings are submitted, its time to set up your payout method. To do this, click on the payment settings tab in your model console. Chose the option that works best for you, and hit next. From there, you will be taken through easy to follow steps to set up a payment account with one of our partnered third party companies. To find out more about the options we offer, visit the Payments Method offered section of the wiki.

How big is Cameralux?

Really big. Cameralux is the fastest growing webcam website in the world with over 5 Million regular users. As soon as you log on, you will have tons of paying members in your room ready to spend money.

How can I contribute to building my following and getting regulars?

Promote, promote, promote. The best thing you can do for your cam career is to self-promote. Create social media accounts, like twitter, and Instagram in your model name. Search for potential members and promote your social media accounts to your Cameralux members to gain followers. Get as many followers as you can! Then, make postings that are fun, sexy, and engaging. Let your followers know your work schedule with dates and times you'll be online. You can also link your Cameralux profile when you're logging on in your posts so they can quickly click to your page!

When camming, make sure to sell things for tips like pictures, videos, calendars, and raffle prizes. Anything to keep your room engaging and your members loyal will help you succeed.

• I want to self promote but I have states/countries blocked - While social media does not offer the same blocking logic, any person in your blocked regions who attempts to go to your Cameralux profile from a social media account will be rerouted to the Cameralux homepage and will not be able to view your profile. If security is a concern for you, we still recommend self promotion, just be discrete when posting pictures.

Payment Support

You can find out more about our payout options directly from your model console after logging in. Additionally, you can update your payment preferences after approval at any time by going to the payment settings tab in your model console. Please direct all payment questions, inquiries, and address updates to Payment Support: https://www.cameralux.us/webcam/contact

• To pull your stats, simply click on the stats and earnings tab in your model console and follow the simple instructions.

Common Payment Concerns

I need to update my address

Even though Cameralux uses fully electronic methods of payment, it is still very important to keep your address updated at all times. This is because we mail out tax forms annually for filing your taxes. To update your address, please email payment support: https://www.cameralux.us/webcam/contact. Tax forms are mailed out the 3rd of 4th week of every January.

I legally changed my name and need to update Cameralux

Whenever you legally change your name, for example when you get married, you must notify us. This is because we will have to start paying you under your new legal name and report income correctly for taxation purposes. Please email payment support https://www.cameralux.us/webcam/contact with your married or new legal name. We will also need the legal documentation verifying this change. For example, you can submit a marriage license to us. Lastly, whenever you change your name, make sure you contact the social security administration to have it updated as soon as possible. This will need to be done before we can update our records.

I don't understand how to pull and/or read my stats

• Most models are paid weekly (Monday - Sunday), and we will transfer your money by the following Friday. For weekly payouts, you can pull your stats by logging into your model console and clicking on the stats and earnings tab. For range, chose last pay period if you are trying to see what money is coming to you on Friday. If you want to see how you are doing this pay week, select current pay period. Next, hit the refresh button.
• Some models use CMBpaycard and are paid based on cash out history. If you use CMBpaycard.com, you must chose custom under the range section on your stats and earnings tab. You must pull your stats based on the last date AND time you received a payment, until the date and time of the current payment. This is because CMBpaycard pays you every time you cash out and transfers everything you've earned up until the minute they transfer funds (remember, we run on Easter Standard Time). If you need more help with this, please email CMB support: https://www.cameralux.us/webcam/contact, or call them at 1.800.677.1483 between the hours of 9am - 5pm Eastern Standard Time, Monday-Friday.
• Many studio models are paid every two weeks. If you cannot use the "current pay period" and "past pay period" on your stats and earnings page because you are paid biweekly, you can change the range to custom. This will allow you to pick from what date, and to what date you would like to pull your stats.

I think I'm missing all or a portion of my payment

The first thing to do is make sure you know what pay range you are on, and how to properly pull your stats. You can always email support https://www.cameralux.us/webcam/contact.

• You must make a minimum of 100 Euros in order to receive a payment. If you did not make enough for a payment, your earnings will roll over to the next week.

• Both your tax and payment settings must be submitted and approved, and your pay account must be active. You can earn money without settings these things up, but your earnings will be held and will roll over to the next week. Roll overs will continue until everything is set up.

If you are pulling your stats correctly, have met your $50 minimum, have an active payment account, and know your tax and payment settings are approved, but you still see an error, don't panic! We will make sure you are paid correctly in a timely fashion. Simply email payment support https://www.cameralux.us/webcam/contact with your model name, what week/pay period you are inquiring about, and the amount you feel you should've received. All missing funds will be paid immediately once verified.

Tools and Features

Is there a Cam Score/Model Rank?

Models have three ratings

• Overall Rating: the rating from users who tipped you over 25 tokens in free chat
• Private Rating: the rating from users after a private show
• Golden Ticket Show Rating: the rating from users after a Golden Ticket show

Ratings influence the rooms users go to and the models placement on the page. The higher the rating the better.

Your Rating will be displayed on your broadcast page

How to Broadcast

At Cameralux it is fast and easy to broadcast. We have a dedicated Model Broadcasting Page on this wiki that walks through all the details.

Show Types

Run a tip app! You can find these near the subject line on top of the chat section.

1. Auto-Reset Tip Goal - when you want smaller goals reached over and over, ex: every goal I lose clothing, or 5x goal I bring out the toys.
2. Tip Menu - when you want everything that's on the table to have a distinct price, go with this app. You can also run this with a tip goal to double the incentive! Make sure to be detailed and specific in all your menu items!
3. Golden Ticket - this is what you should go with when you don't want to go with a goal format, and don't want anyone to watch you without tipping. You set an entry price that needs to be paid to see the stream, and can even set a countdown timer so everyone has time to buy their tickets!
4. Tip Goal - when you have one simple objective for your show, this is what you want.

Here is more advice on what should and should not be in your model profile page.

Mobile

All models will be broadcasting to all devices; desktop, tablets and mobile. This page is designed to help models from the United States understand their employment and tax status while working on this website. If you are not a model from the USA, the information on this page may not be relevant for you.

Employment status of models

Models are NOT employees of MyFreeCams.com!

Models are independent contractors.

We are unable to provide any sort of proof of employment or income verification.

For more details as to your legal status with respect to MyFreeCams.com, please read your Model Contract that is available in your Model Admin.

Requirement of a Social Security Number or Tax ID

All American corporations in are required to receive the Social Security Number or Tax ID of American citizens and residents that they pay in order to avoid having to withhold part of the payment for taxes. This is why our site requires this information and we do not use it for any other purposes.

Tax information for models

W9 tax form

Models that are residents or citizens of the USA digitally sign a W9 tax form which is just a formal request for a tax-payer identification number (your social security number). This allows us to pay you the full amount you earn without any backup withholding. We keep the W9 form on file, and it does not get sent to the IRS.

1099 tax form

After the end of each year, before January 31, if you have earned over $600.00 in the previous year, we will send out a 1099-MISC Tax Form which will contain the total income you have received during the prior year from our company. This will help you file your annual tax returns. A copy also gets sent to the IRS.

We do not withhold any portion of your payment for taxes. You are responsible for reporting, filing, and paying all of your taxes yourself!

Please speak with a qualified tax advisor or accountant if you have any questions.

Background checks

Your privacy is our top priority.

To the best of our knowledge, appearing on MyFreeCams.com will not appear on any background checks.

We do not report the names of our models to any entity other than the IRS in 1099 tax forms as required by law. It will simply say you received miscellaneous income from our company without any details as to the specific service.
