WHAT IS STREAMATE?
Why are we using it?

THE FINER DETAILS
- As a model, you will receive 25% of all earnings. This may seem steep on the surface, however Streamate spend a lot of time and money advertising and pushing profiles out to affiliate sites- bringing in more traffic. They also use sophisticated algorithms to maximise your success.
- For every 1 GOLD you are given, you will earn $0.25. This equates to APPROXIMATELY HALF of what you’d get from 1 credit usually. Keep this in mind! Prices per minute and GOLD menu prices are generally higher!
- The amount displayed to you on your earnings page, is TAKE HOME. This is after site (65%) and agency fees (10%) are already accounted for. You can view your average hourly rate, and where you’re making the most money.
- Traffic is significantly higher than the site we currently use, which gives you more chance to earn! We will now be able to connect with users from the US, which we previously couldn’t!
- On Payday, you will be paid automatically using current exchange rates. Some services charge a small fee on top! Emily does NOT handle any pay related issues, and you cannot have on request pay.

MULTI-STREAMING
To maximise your success, we advise to stream on both platforms at once! Both sites can use the same webcam and mic. This not only doubles your chances of earning, but also keeps you occupied with incoming traffic from two places!
If you receive a call from one site, simply answer and stop the other.
MULTI-STREAMING
Just as before, you can choose to type or use audio. this is completely your choice!
If you use a Lovense toy, this can be used on both sites simultaneously. STREAMATE has their own integrated easy setup!

Just as you do currently, the aim is to make money through tipping and paid modes. There is no background mode for Streamate, most likely because free mode is where you will draw in more clients!

DYNAMIC RATES
The Dynamic Rates feature lets you offer tailored rates to many of your clients! Instead of setting per-minute rates, their algorithm will look at a member’s history and pick a price based on their interest level and habits. This can expand your audience, bring in new regulars, and increase your revenue!
The Dynamic Rate feature is designed to notice patterns in spending behaviour and choose an optimal price for each client. This tool is always learning, checking, and tweaking itself to get better results.
- If you have Exclusive shows disabled, activating Dynamic Rate will override this.
- Block Sessions are not available while Dynamic Rates are on.
- You won’t be able to edit your static rates while Dynamic Rate is activated. Deactivate the feature to edit your rates.
BLOCK SESSIONS
Block sessions allow clients to buy large chunks of time at a discounted rate rather than paying per minute. Not all performers can offer block sessions right away.
This works similarly to “special offers” which you should be familiar with!
There is a three-minute period at the beginning of the show before it officially becomes a block session. If you or the client disconnect from the show for any reason, the member is not charged for the whole block session. They will only be charged for the 1, 2, or 3 minutes the show lasted (they will be charged at the discounted block session rate).
If a block session is disconnected by accident or because of technical problems after the leeway period has ended, the member can enter your room and choose to resume the session any time within two hours. If they click to start a new show, they’ll see how much block time they have left. After two hours, the session will expire.

When talking to clients it is so important to not mention children at all, in any shape or form. Any words that are associated with children will flag up with Streamate and you could be instantly deactivated.

AFFILIATE SITES
Streamate spend a significant amount of money putting their site out there to “White label” sites. Other sites will show models from Streamate and ultimately bring in more traffic!
If you are anonymous, or don’t want your face seen by the masses, you can blur out/ cover your face. Or use body shots instead.
We appreciate that some models may feel uncomfortable at the idea of being on affiliated sites.
You CAN take this option off, but be prepared for less traffic and a potential hit to your earnings.
Algorithms and Boosting
As mentioned previously, Streamate push their models out to external sites, to bring in more traffic.
It takes 10-15 minutes of streaming before you’re advertised and boosted properly. If you stop your show this time starts again.
The more you are online, the more they will boost your profile.
Viewing your earnings
From your dashboard, you can view your earnings. You’re able to see where you’re making the most money and from whom. You can view your stream time and hourly rate.
Mental health support
We all have mental health, just as we all have physical health. Our mental health is how we’re feeling inside, or how we are emotionally. It’s a bit like internal weather.
High Society models have donated a considerable amount of money towards their funding.
Pineapple Support Society is a free support and therapy service for all models of High Society and Co.– no matter their gender, ethnic origin, social status, age or sexual orientation. Pineapple Support mental health professionals are licensed, trained, experienced and accredited psychologists, therapists, coaches, clinical social workers or professional counsellors.
Accountancy
Previously as an agency, we didn’t offer any recommendations for accountants or give any financial advice. You are classed as Self-Employed, as a sole trader. You are still responsible for your own finances and tax returns, but it is advised to have an Accountant to take over and alleviate stress.
High Society Models have partnered with Nephos Group accountants!
Nephos have great experience dealing with members of the Adult Entertainment Industry. They offer a stress-free, judgement free experience. Nephos attended the most recent High Society Models party and made quite the impression!
We have information pages available for those considering Nephos.
