Camgirl – how it works
What does a webcam model do? They offer services for adults such as nude chatting, stripping, dancing, masturbation and/or sex in front of a webcam.
This usually happens live from home, and the broadcast is watched by several viewers at the same time. Some of the audience will pay you for your performance, either as a “tip” (i.e. as a donation/gift) or for you to perform a specific act. Of course the key here is that you are always in control, and you can set your own rules and limits.
As a Camgirl, there are many benefits you don’t have in other jobs:
- Work from home or anywhere in the world
- Good income, up to £5000 and more per month are possible
- Set working hours yourself
- No annoying boss. You decide what you’re doing
So are you interested in getting started in the adult entertainment business? Then just let go – all your questions will be answered, and you will be perfectly prepared to be your own boss.
Camgirl Merit – How much money can you make?
How much you make depends on many factors. The bigger your audience – the greater the amount of money you can generate. The bigger your fan base is – the more you can earn. The more hours you are in front of the webcam (i.e. at work) – the greater your earnings. It really is that simple!
Top camgirls can make well into the 4-digit range. That means £5000 are possible for you by becoming a webcam model (full time). Of course, if you only want to be in front of the webcam “part-time” you can still expect to make a few hundred, and possibly up to around £1500.
Tip: Here you will find a calculator to calculate your earnings.
But the fact is…. nothing comes of nothing. Even for cam girls or webcam models, the money doesn’t just fall from the sky – you have to take a few things into account and set out your strategy. We will cover this in more detail later.
How does it work with the tokens?
You make money by receiving tips from our viewers. The currency on the webcam site is tokens. Viewers exchange their money for tokens, and then they pay you with them.
For example, you can say in the chat that you will ‘show more’ (or something similar) for 30 tokens. Then, you get to exchange your tokens for real money, with each token being worth 0.10 USD (approx. £0.08).
How do you get your money?
You can withdraw your earnings at any time, and there are various different payment method that you can use.
In this training article you will find a guide on how to pay off.
Ways to make money
When making money with the webcam, there are a number of different possibilities. Here we will briefly introduce you to the most important options:
Webcam Show
The classic webcam show. You sit in front of the webcam and broadcast live. This will attract as many viewers as possible to watch your show, and it does of course mean that there is a greater chance of more people paying you tips.
However, there will also be those in the chat room who will just watch for free. Nevertheless, just remember that the camshow is your main source of income!
Private Show
At the Private Show you are, as a webcam model, in the chat room with a single viewer. You can earn very well using this option, someone in your audience is ready to reach deep into their pocket, so it’s always worth promoting private shows.
Erotic videos for sale
The first two options depend directly on your (working) time. Successful camgirls, however, still build up a passive pillar. This includes videos of you.
Make a little video of how you masturbate, have sex or something similar and then sell it directly on your profile. So you have done the work and then continue to get paid for it over and over.
Myshop – Your own fan club
You should also maintain your own ‘Myshop’ wherever possible. It’s a kind of fan club on your profile. You set a monthly fee, then your biggest fans can subscribe to you. You get a fixed payment every month – a good basic income for many webcam models.
What do you have to offer in return? Some sexy photos and videos – not a great effort for a good return!
Prerequisites to become a Camgirl
Not every woman can become a camgirl. It takes some basic elements to get started, and that’s what we are going to explore here.
Look
Maybe you’re still wondering why viewers should come and watch you? Not every woman has dream measurements, or the figure of a model. This does not prevent you from becoming a webcam girl. It is certainly not the case for 95% of our top earners!
In fact, most men who watch camgirls prefer the more natural and imperfect appearance. So it really doesn’t matter if you look attractive or not, slim or chubby – viewer tastes are not all the same.
Age
It’s similar with age. Whilst you must be at least 18 years old, it doesn’t matter how old you are. Just remember our viewers range anywhere between 18 and 70+, everyone has different preferences – yours and theirs!
Technical equipment
You need a PC or laptop with webcam and an internet connection. In most cases you need to be well equipped, but remember it is also possible to stream via your Android or IOS smartphone.
However, it is recommended that you to set up your own small ‘webcam studio’. But don’t worry, you don’t need a lot of effort to get started – to begin with you can just use what you have for now.
Later you can buy a better (external) webcam, and always pay attention to the resolution and make sure that it’s at least Full HD.
In addition, a tripod is also worthwhile as you can put this in front of your bed and then set up the background nicely.
In case of poor lighting, extra lights can help to give optimal results (e.g. a lamp on a tripod).
An additional great option is the use of an interactive vibrator, where viewers can control your sex toy by giving tips – a good incentive to earn even more!
What do you have to be able to do as a camgirl?
There’s no formal criteria to work as a camgirl. However, there are a few features that you need for long-term success.
One thing to note – you can shape your personality to some extent, according to your wishes. You just have to be ready to get out of your comfort zone, and soon you will grow and overcome any difficulties!
Feel good – Do your thing
Do your thing, this is probably the most important tip. Viewers want to see you as you are, in all your facets – no different. I know that is not easy to do this, but just give it a go.
The first time you “cammst” it’s still hard to “let go”. You don’t have that many viewers yet, and maybe you have some doubts in your head, but don’t worry – just keep going. It will be easier and soon you will really enjoy it!
Flirting and chatting
Why are there so many viewers on webcam platforms? Because you’re looking for the interaction. It’s much more personal to watch you live and chat with you, than it is to watch porn.
That’s why it’s important that you actively seek the interaction and “the game” with your viewers. Talk to them, flirt with them, and watch what you get in return.
Sooner or later, your efforts will always pay off!
Self-satisfaction without shame
Seeing you naked – that’s what your audience wants! But don’t give them what they want straight away. Tease them a bit at first, and then slowly start undressing. Take your time – use your striptease to entice them.
If you’re happy, you can let yourself go and masturbate in front of the cam.
Dirty Talk
If you want to put another spin on it, then try Dirty Talk and really warm up your viewers! Your cash register will soon be ringing!
Be consistent
The customer is king, and this is also true in the webcam business. However, make sure you have fixed rules that are easily found on your profile.
If someone does not follow your limits, you have the right to be consistent. You can banish annoying viewers from your chat, and remember only do what you feel comfortable with.
Anonymity, is that possible?
Can I actually become a Camgirl while remaining anonymous? I don’t want to see what my friends and relatives do! – This question is often asked.
There are a number of ways you can do this. For example, you can cover your face with a mask, and you can also exclude IP addresses from certain areas.
However, we don’t recommend hiding the matter – if you stand up publicly to your new job, no one can attack you. Just remember we’re in 2020 now – anyone who’s still critical of Camgirls in this day and age is still living in the past!
By the way, there are lots more ways to build an active audience via social media.
If you still want to restrict your account to protect your privacy, check out this training article.
Alone in front of the webcam or with partner?
Well of course, that’s up to you. If you have a partner who is as sexually open as you are, then you can webcam together, after all….. Live sex is always well received.
However, it’s not a must. Top solo cammer’s can attract just as many viewers as couples!
Tips to become a top webcam girl
Ok, now we have come to the exciting part. If you want to quickly climb to the ranks of a top camgirl, you have to put in the effort and make sure you get things right. Apply these tips and you will increase your income rapidly!
Good profile and pictures
Your profile is the first point of contact for the viewers, so it’s important to get it right – make sure it is designed to give a professional look. Take really hot photos of you. Don’t forget you are best placed to take the best profile picture. Look at other cam models, use them for inspiration. How many photos do they have? and then make sure you have more!
Customize your profile text and create a great design. In this video we will show you how to take this into your own hands.
Participation in the bonus program
You have just registered and verified yourself? Super, we will contact you soon and invite you to our bonus program.
You get weekly tasks and small goals. If you fulfill these, then you get a generous bonus payment week after week! You should absolutely take advantage of this opportunity!
Be active, be consistent
If you want to make money you have to be active (at work) – that’s a fact. In the beginning it takes a lot of time for you to establish yourself. Hoping and wishing does not help here. Be as active as possible.
But don’t forget the fun of it, don’t get too bogged down. If you are finding it hard to get into the zone, you can always set new smaller goals and let things build up from there.
Expand your social media presence
Social media is hugely important. It makes sense to invest a certain amount of your time in maintaining and building social media profiles.
Get started with Twitter, and upload photos on a regular basis. Then, whenever you schedule or start a web show, you can let your followers know.
Speaking of followers: Let your viewers know where to find you in the chat!
You can also use Instagram, YouTube and Facebook, they are all great platforms to get yourself noticed!

Take time to build your fans
Your fans are the essence of your success. It is very important to invest time and effort, and make your viewers happy. Chat and flirt with them, and see the rewards come through.
But don’t forget to take feedback seriously, and try to bring some changes to your shows every once in a while.
Understand the algorithm
On every webcam site there is always a limited amount of space. This means that there is always plenty of competition between models. This is what determines who gets the coveted seats (and therefore the most viewers)!
There is an algorithm that tries to show the best results for each viewer. Factors play a role, such as region and language (both from Camgirl and viewers), success (earned tokens over a certain period of time), activity (how many hours live on cam, and between shows in certain time periods), and many many more.
Well now you realize – In the beginning you have less activity, less success, less fans etc. and therefore, less visibility.
Hence the most important tip: Don’t give up too early. Becoming a Camgirl will take time. Each show improves your standing in the algorithm. And if you stick to it, you may soon be number one!
