Exploring reliable payment options for webcam models outside of traditional camming sites is crucial for diversifying income and ensuring financial security. In South America, models are seeking alternatives that cater specifically to the adult industry, acknowledging the risks associated with widely used platforms like Paypal, which is prone to account blocks and chargebacks. Here's a summary of the recommendations and experiences shared by our community:
- OnlyFans and Skrill: Mentioned as potential options, with OnlyFans already being in use by some. However, the effectiveness and security of Skrill remain unclear within the context of adult content.
- Industry-Specific Solutions: Platforms designed for the adult industry are generally safer. However, the closure of Indiebill, a previously favored service, has left a gap. Erotifix.com is a potential alternative, offering a high commission rate (85%), though it has a slower document approval process.
- AVN Stars: Offers a decent commission split (80% to the model, 20% to AVN) but requires clients to subscribe to view paid content, which may limit potential earnings.
- CamLust: Allows for payments without client registration and offers multiple payment options, including cryptocurrency, but takes a 25% commission.
- Bitcoin: Suggested as a viable option for its lower risk of account seizure and increased privacy.
- Alternative Platforms: ManyVids, CamModelDirectory, and SkyPrivate are recommended for selling videos, photos, and conducting Skype shows, noted for their reliability and model-friendly payment structures.
Members have expressed a common concern over the use of Paypal due to its unfavorable policies towards adult content providers, including high chargeback fees and the risk of account suspension. The search for a reliable Indiebill replacement is ongoing within our community, with a focus on platforms that prioritize the safety and profitability of webcam models.
