If you're considering becoming a model on Stripchat, you might have questions about how you'll receive your hard-earned payments, payment settings, and more. In this guide, we'll address these common queries and provide you with valuable information on the financial aspects of being a Stripchat model.

Payment Methods

Stripchat has numerous payment options for models to receive their earnings.

  • Paxum (delivered instantly)
  • Cosmo Payment (delivered instantly)
  • Bitsafe (delivered instantly)
  • Crypto (Bitcoin, Ethereum, USD Coin, Tether) (delivered within a few hours)
  • EUR Wire Transfer (SEPA) (delivered within 2-10 business days)
  • ACH/Direct Payments (delivered within 2-10 business days)
  • Local Wires/Directa24 (delivered within 2-10 business days)
  • Visa/Mastercard (delivered within 1-5 business days)

Note: Their system and payments work with UTC Timezone (https://time.is/UTC)

Changing Payment Settings

If you need to modify your payment settings on Stripchat, you can do so at https://stripchat.com/payments-settings. Keep in mind that each time you make changes, you'll need to validate them via your email. This security measure ensures that only you can make adjustments to your payment settings.

Missing Payment Inquiries

Should you encounter a situation where a payment is missing, Stripchat recommends that you first check the timeframe of your chosen payment service provider. If you have reached your minimum amount and the timeframe of your provider has passed, contact the Stripchat Support Team for assistance: https://support.stripchat.com/hc/en-us/requests/new.

How do I calculate my earnings?

Their system works with UTC Timezone (https://time.is/UTC)

Payments are calculated on Sunday midnight (UTC timezone - UTC±0:00) and include earnings from the week before (Monday morning until Sunday night). This means models are paid the amount in their accounts on Sunday night.

  • At midnight 23:59 PM on Sunday (UTC timezone https://time.is/UTC) the system stops calculating your weekly sum
  • Your total weekly amount is generated, calculating earnings (from Monday 00:01 AM to Sunday 23:59 PM)
  • Reminder: Don’t calculate midnight by your own timezone - the accounts system operates on UTC timezone

Receiving Payments as a Model

Once you've been approved as a model, you can finalize your payment settings at https://stripchat.com/payments-settings. Most payouts are made weekly (except Wire Transfer payments which are issued every second week) as long as you have reached your minimum payment amount.

Minimum amounts

Your payout is scheduled once you have reached the minimum amount set by each provider:

  • Bitsafe, and Cosmo Payment the minimum is $50
  • Bitcoin (BTC) and Tether (USDT) the minimum is $50
  • Bitcoin Ethereum (ETH) and USD Coin (USDC) it's $100
  • Local Wires/Directa24 the minimum is $50
  • Paxum, ACH/Direct Payments and EUR Wire Transfer (SEPA) the minimum is $100
  • International Wire Transfer the minimum is $500
  • Visa/Mastercard, the minimum is $100

NOTE about crypto:

Payouts in ETH, USDC, and USDT may be executed via smart contracts. Before you choose ETH, USDC, or USDT for payouts, make sure your crypto wallet accepts incoming transfers from smart contracts. If it doesn’t, your payouts may get lost and never reach you.

Earnings

Your earnings as a Stripchat model depend on several factors, including your skills, dedication, and hard work. The payout percentages are somewhere between 50% and 60%.

Tokens are the form of virtual currency used on Stripchat. For models, 1 token is worth $0.05.

Payment Frequency

Most payouts are made weekly (except Wire Transfer payments which are issued every second week) as long as you have reached your minimum payment amount.

Chargeback Protection

Stripchat offers 100% protection from chargebacks, understanding that this unfortunate situation can't always be prevented. However, there are two cases when Stripchat reserves the right to deduct tokens from your earnings:

  • Fraudulent Activity: Models are expected to report any suspicious activity in their room. This includes malicious tipping or cooperation with fraudulent users.
  • User Complaints: In the case of a user complaint regarding an unsatisfactory show.

Navigating the financial aspects of webcam modeling on Stripchat is straightforward with the right information at your fingertips. By understanding payment methods, security measures, and earnings potential, you can confidently embark on your journey as a successful Stripchat model.
