2. What do I need to becomea Video Chathost ...?

A few simple requirements:

  1. An Internet connection.
  2. A PC Video Camera (click here to find some examples).
  3. If you wish to offer the sound function to Viewers (i.e. the ability for Viewers to hear you speaking live), then you will need a soundcard and a microphone. (optional).
  4. Register as a Chathost at CamContacts.
  5. Verify your age - you must be over 18 years of age. (click here for details)

Back to Top



3. Do I need to have a credit card or pay something to become a Chathost?

NO, there are absolutely no fees. It is completely FREE and you do NOT need to have a credit card or pay us anything to become a Chathost. The only expenses on your side will be the cost of the Internet connection and a webcamera.

Back to Top



4. How do I prevent my family & friends from seeing me ... ?

When you register as a Chathost we will provide you with the option to prevent Viewers from certain Countries and States from gaining access to your Video and Archives Pictures. You can also block certain Viewer Screen Names!

So if you are one of those people who would love to express your exhibitionist side to your personality but don't want certain people to know about it ...then rest assured they won't!

  • Using your Chathost Screen Name and password log in to the *Block Viewers* area in the Chathost Resources
  • you will find instructions there on how to block certain countries, states, zip codes, or certain Viewers

Please remember, that blocking only works on pictures selected as 'Visible for members' (available for registered Viewers only)!

Pictures selected as 'Visible to everyone', are available for all, even non-registered Viewers.

(This doesn't mean though that all your pictures should be 'Visible for members' only - leave some contents available to guests as well ;-)! They are your potential Viewers so... you can simply avoid showing the face in pictures 'Visible to everyone').

5. When do I get paid, and how... ?

We send the payment automatically into your BANK account or ePassporte account. These options are displayed when you register and access your personal account payment screen.

The two-week period starts from Midnight Sunday to Midnight Sunday two weeks later (GMT time). The system does not generate the check until your total outstanding earnings exceed 100 USD.

Back to Top



6. Can payments ever be late?

Only in exceptional circumstances: CamContacts makes every possible effort to ensure that payments are made every two weeks - with NO delay.

The payment period, i.e. time within which we process payments, usually lasts for 5 days, so it's not a reason to panic if on Thursday evening or even Friday morning your payment still shows as 'outstanding'.But if it doesn't change by Monday - it's definitely time for an email to CHaccounts@CamContacts.com !

Also, please bear in mind that our payments are entirely dependent upon the banks. If they make changes to their operations that affects our payments, it could cause a longer processing time. This occurs very rarely, so there's no need to worry. If ever we find out about any possible delay, this gets immediately posted in the News section on the Chathost Resources page - so you will always know in advance.

7. ePassporte

ePassporte is an electronic wallet that combines with a Visa Electron Debit card which allows you to withdraw funds from ATMs (cash machines) anywhere in the world. Additionally, ePassporte account holders are able to transfer funds over the internet and make online purchases of goods and services (residents of certain regions have restricted on-line usage).

If you select ePassporte as your payment option your earnings are available to you as soon as we transfer the funds from our ePassporte business account. Accordingly, you will no longer have to wait 3 days for a bank transfer to clear or weeks for your cheque to arrive in the post.

An ePassporte transfer from us to your ePassporte account is free-of-charge and the minimum transfer is 100 USD. The only charge to you will be the cash withdrawal fees charged by the bank that you withdraw your cash from.

If you already have an ePassporte account you can start getting paid now!

ePassporte account type Can you get paid now?
Personal account YES
Affiliate account
(opened by another business account holder)
YES
Business account YES
Gift account
(opened by another personal account holder)
YES
Associate account NO

If you don't have an ePassporte account, you can visit www.epassporte.com and open a personal account now! It will generally take 3-4 weeks for epassporte to process your account application and for you to obtain your Visa Electron Debit card.

If you have an associate account we are unable to transfer money to you due to restrictions at ePassporte. However, you can open your own personal ePassporte account by visiting www.epassporte.com and start to get paid now.

Note: Caution to ePassporte Account Holders
Please exercise caution when inputting your ePassporte User ID. If you provide us with the wrong ID and we remit payment to that ID, you will be unable to reverse or dispute this transaction for any reason and your money will be lost.

Back to Top



8. What is my ePassporte User ID?

Your ePassporte User ID is your username at ePassporte. The same as you are using when logging into ePassporte. This is not your ePassporte e-mail address and it is not your Visa Electron Debit Card number.

Note: Caution to ePassporte Account Holders
Please exercise caution when inputting your ePassporte User ID. If you provide us with the wrong ID and we remit payment to that ID, you will be unable to reverse or dispute this transaction for any reason and your money will be lost.

Back to Top



9. Bank Transfer (BT)

If you choose this payment option, you will receive your money within 3-5 days. The lower limit for this is 100 USD due to the banks' high commission charges. The total commission charges for this transfer are 33 USD. These charges are covered by you and are adjusted from the value when the transfer is made.

In order to receive money to your bank account, you should fill in as much information regarding your account as you can.

The SWIFT or CLEARING code is very important. The banks use it for international transfers. SWIFT codes should be in letters and numbers i.e. MIDL22.

If your account is not at the main bank branch, then we advise you to specify the branch where the money should be sent. This should ideally be the branch NAME, CODE and their full address. Without this information, banks have a tendency to keep the money at head office and not even try to send it on to the waiting branch or account, causing a payment delay to you.

If you want to receive your money in RUSSIA, you should ask your bank whether you have a personal account. The personal account is necessary for your bank to put the money to the correct beneficiary.

If you use the option of getting a GBP transfer to a UK bank (this method is available ONLY to those who already use it: no new applications are accepted) - sent by Barclays Pls., please keep in mind that it normally takes up to 10 days to receive your revenues.

Note: please keep in mind that starting from January 2005 all European bank accounts should be changed into IBAN accounts. Therefore, please contact your bank and update your payment details accordingly.

10. Who is responsible to pay taxes?

You are responsible for paying your own taxes. Chathosts are not the employees of CamContacts, they are self-employed and offering their services to CamContacts members. It is not our responsibility to report your earnings to the Tax authority.

Back to Top



11. What type of content can I show in video?

First of all you must follow our guidelines for each category, and as long as you do not break your local obscenity laws, you have nothing to worry about. What you show in video is between you and a Viewer, when a Viewer enters your Videochat he receives your video content directly from your computer. It is called a "point to point" connection.

Obscene acts of underage sex, bestiality, torture, incest, and excretory functions are NOT allowed on CamContacts.

Your mobile videos also have legal restrictions. Please read them here.

12. I have my own website/ I want to create a website, can I host it with CamContacts?

14. Setting your Session Price

At CamContacts we are always looking for new ways to bring you more customers. In addition to CamContacts, you can now be online on many more websites & mobile sites. This means that as well as earning your normal payouts from one site - CamContacts, you will be able to earn from 100's of other Videochat sites that have partnered with us.

And the number of sites is growing every day, which means more Viewers and more traffic to you!

All you need to do to get more Viewers is to start a new Chathost session on CamContacts and accept the full range of Videochat Services displayed on the Start Session page. You will then open up a whole new world of customers, without effecting your sessions on CamContacts.

  • What is a "Chathost Payout"?
    Chathost Payout is how much you will earn per minute in the videochat session. Enter in the "Session Price" box the US$ amount you want viewers to pay per minute of Videochat on CamContacts (Internet site & Mobile). The page will then update and show you the "Chathost Payout" (how much you will be paid per minute of Videochat) for all the Videochat Services.

  • Why can I not choose "Chathost Payout" amount for other partner sites?
    Because the "Chathost Payout" for these additional partner sites is calculated automatically. The new Videochat Services and sites usually have a number of third parties which are responsible for introducing new Viewers to you. CamContacts needs to pay to these third parties a significant percentage for introducing these Viewers. This additional cost means that we have had to lower your and our payout and/or increase the Viewer charge on specific sites and services.

    We are always trying to get the best deals for you - both in number of videos and payout value. We will evaluate and monitor each service very carefully and only add services and sites which we think will help you earn extra $$$ CASH.

    Current Videochat Services available:

    1. CamContacts:
      - Viewers: these are CamContacts Viewers that came via our own advertising.
      - Payout: 50% of the Session Price.
    2. Partner Sites and CamContacts Webmasters:
      - Viewers: these are Viewers that visit one of the partner sites that have variable session prices, or they are referred to CamContacts by a Webmaster / Chathost.
      - Payout: 40% to 100% of the Session Price for CamContacts: We have to pay the Partner Site owner (Internet or Mobile site) and/or the Webmaster/Chathost. We have to reduce Chathost and our own payout so we can offer more to Webmasters.
    3. Partner Sites (FIXED PRICE):
      - Viewers: these are Viewers that visit one of the Partner sites which have FIXED prices, regardless of the price you normally charge on CC.
      - Payout: 50¢: We have to pay the Partner Site owner (Internet or Mobile site) and their Webmasters. The prices they charge to Viewers are normally around $1.99. The lower payout here enables us to compete with other sites which only offer low rates to Chathosts and much higher rates to Webmasters/site owners. While Chathosts work on these low payout sites, we also have to offer the same :(
    4. Mobile SMS Billing:
      - Viewers: these are Viewers that visit one of the partner sites (Internet or Mobile site), who pay via mobile phone premium SMS.
      - Payout: 50¢: We have to pay the UK mobile operator (Vodafone, Orange, etc.), the SMS aggregator, VAT and the partner site.

  • How do I accept sessions from extra Videochat Services?
    It's really easy. All Videochat Services are automatically selected whenever you are up to start a new session on a Start Session page, just fill in your other session details (such as Title, IP address etc.) and that’s it.

  • What if I want to offer free sessions?
    On the Start Session page you can choose whether the session will be chargeable or free to Viewers.

    Please Note: there are some services and sites where Viewers will have to pay for ALL sessions - for example: UK "Mobile SMS Billing" sites. Choosing a free session will mean that you are not visible to the Viewers on these sites and services.

  • Do I have to accept all Videochat Services?
    If you do not want to have all the extra services, just remove the 'tick' from the Agree column for the list of services you do not want. BUT you will miss out on extra sessions and extra $$$ CASH you could earn!

Chat questions

1. How does the Chat system work?

The Buttons
[Ignore]    Select one of the Chatters from the user list on the right. Then click this button and whatever that user types will not be seen by anyone. However, they will still be able to see the chat from everyone else. This is useful to combat abusive users, as they will not know what is happening and will just think everyone is ignoring them.
[Send]    Send the message you typed. Same as pressing Enter in the text entry.
[ - Chat options - ]    Displays the chat options menu, that is explained below.

Chat options menu
[Emoticons List]    Opens the list with the emoticons.
[Display Emoticons]   If this option not ticked, you will be seeing emoticons’ names in your chat (instead of images).
[Clear History]    Clears all previous text from the screen.
[Font Size]    Allows you to change the size of the text.
The Colors
GREEN    This person is watching video.
BLUE    Chatter who has registered and also 'signed-in'.
ORANGE    Another Chathost in your text chat.
BLACK    Prospective Viewer ;-) Can also be a registered Viewer that has not 'signed-in'.
PURPLE   A CamContacts representative ;-) (Can only use Screen Name *Admin* or *Admin2*).

Other Stuff

1. Proof of age? Do I need to send you copy of my Identification Document (ID)?

If you are planning to host a Video Session, you must provide us with a government issued Identification Document (passport, identity card or driver's license) that proves that you are at least 18 years of age. Your Chathost profile will remain hidden on the site and your account will stay inactive until required copies of the identification documents have been provided to us.
You can submit the ID by sending us an e-mail. It's very easy:
  1. Just make a clear close-up (all fields should be readable) pictures of:
    • Photo ID (a colour copy of a government issued photo identification document (passport, ID card, driver's license).
    • Face+ID (a close-up colour picture of yourself holding the original Photo ID close to the face. Photo ID should be held opened on a 'picture page').

  2. And the deliver them to us!
    Send us an e-mail with images attached to help@CamContacts.com

  3. Having checked everything we will get back to you via e-mail confirming that you may start broadcasting video on CamContacts (it shouldn't take long) :-)
Important: Quality of the documents: Your account can be processed very quickly if you provide us with legible copies of the documents. The documents should be fully visible and of a high quality and clarity (all of the document fields must be clearly visible both in Photo ID & Face+ID). You might find it useful to use a digital camera with high resolution in order to create a good quality image of yourself holding your ID close to the face ;-)

2. How do I create a Profile Picture?

In an effort to prevent minors from accessing 'adult' content on the Internet, each Screen Name now has TWO Profile Pictures. One Profile Picture is displayed to Non-Members (Guests) and another one is displayed only to Members. To avoid getting into a trouble, please make sure you are familiar with our guidelines for Non-Members’ Profile pictures. You will find these if you visit the Profile Photos link on the Chathost Resources page (look in the blue menu under Maintenance section).

There are 2 ways to create a Profile Picture:
  • by using the iSense Cam Video Software
  • by choosing your favorite picture in your Photo Archives Gallery and setting it as a Profile Picture

 1) Create a Profile Picture by using iSense Cam Video Software: Please see the relevant section from the Video Chat SoftwareManual.

 2) Choosing your favorite picture in the Photo Archive Gallery and setting it as a Profile Picture.

  • Please go to your Photo Archives by clicking the appropriate link on the blue menu of your Chathost Resources page
  • Browse through your pictures (by clicking dates on the left frame) and choose the ones that you like the most. Then, depending on the content of the picture and your category, select it as your Profile Picture - for Guests or Members (use 2 links next to each picture).

Back to Top



3. I do not want some of the pictures to be displayed, how can I delete them?

It is not possible to delete pictures, but it is possible to hide them, so no one is able to see them except yourself. In order to hide pictures follow these steps:
  • Using your Chathost Screen Name and password, login to *Photo Archives* gallery through Chathost Resources
  • Browse through the pictures
  • Next to each picture, you see a *Visibility* dropdown list - select 'Hidden'
  • There is no *save* button or anything like this, as soon as you select that option, the picture will be hidden

4. How can I create private Videosession?

When you start your new video session, on the sign-in screen:
  1. Tick checkbox *Private session*
  2. Input a *My Private access code*

*Private access code* is a password that you set yourself (it can be different each time you have a private Videosession for different Viewers), and you should give this password to the Viewer who requested a private video session. Make sure that you will give this password in a private message!

Back to Top



5. I have signed up as a Chathost, but I do not appear on your site!

Unless you have both Members and Non-Members Profile Photos set, your Chathost Profile will be hidden and Viewers won’t find you on the 'WhoIsOnline' page. So please create corresponding Profile Pictures for Members and Non-Members, and notify us by emailing us at help@CamContacts.com. We will help you further :-)

Back to Top



6. How can I change my Chathost Screen Name?

It is not possible to change your Chathost Screen Name. If for some reasons you wish to have a different Screen Name, then you will need to register a new Chathost account.

Back to Top



7. Pictures that I have taken do not appear in my Photo Archives!

In order for pictures to appear in your Photo Archives, you need to follow the instructions described in question #2 (How do I take a profile picture). Pay special attention to Step 3, which confirms that a picture has been saved on our servers.

If you do not receive the message confirming this, then you must have done something wrong. If you do not know the reason why, then please email us at help@CamContacts.com with all the details.

Back to Top



8. How do I add an additional Chathost to my existing Screen Name?

You will need to add information about your girlfriend, boyfriend or friend to your existing Chathost account, if you are not the only one who goes online under your Screen Name.

This is what you need to do:
  1. Login through Chathost Resources to the *Edit Your Profile*
  2. On the *Change Your Personal Profile* page you will see a section called *Individual Performers*
  3. Click *Add new individual* and fill in the details for the additional Chathost in the boxes that appear
  4. After you finished filling in the details, click *Accept* and then click *Next* to complete the profile for that individual

9. I have referred a few Viewers, but I am not getting money for them!

There are a few important things to know about Viewers that you introduce to CamContacts.
  1. You earn up to 20% of what Viewers spend on the CamContacts Chathosts (including yourself), therefore if you referred a few viewers, but none of them spent anything, then you do not earn any referral money.
  2. If you have been regularly receiving the referral money, but it suddenly stopped, or decreased  then it can mean that Viewers that you have referred stopped spending money on the site for whatever reason (reached a 100$ spending limit, and does not wish to send an ECA; payments got declined and account was automatically blocked... etc.)

If you think that none of the above applies to you, and there is some other problem, then please feel free to e-mail us at help@CamContacts.com and we will try to investigate where the problem lies.

10. May I have multiple sessions at once?

No, you may only be in one category/session at any given time.

Back to Top



Site features

1. What is One2One session?

It's our latest service giving your visitors the option to have an exclusive and private session with you. No interruptions from anyone else.
Exclusive privacy is the main difference between a One2One and open sessions so... please do NOT use One2One to elude from performing in open sessions, such as by asking your Viewers to choose One2One if they want a show.

Back to Top



2. Is One2One session option available for every Viewer?

Yes, this option is offered to all Viewers, in the same way as a normal Video session.

Back to Top



3. Is One2One session arranged in the same manner as private?

Nope, no arrangements needed in this case: Viewer will be able to pop in One2One at any time he or she likes, provided you have no other Viewers in your video at that time.

Back to Top



4. Can I change the rate I offer for One2One session?

Yes, you can change this rate at *Start Session* page by entering the desired figure in the One2One session field. The usual default is 20% increase over standard open session rate but you can set a higher charge.

Back to Top



5. What if I'm having a Viewer in my usual video and another member tries to enter One2One with me?

This member will be displayed a message informing that One2One is not available at that point, and asking to wait until you are all alone :-) Of course, this member will be able to join your current Video session (if it's not private).

Back to Top



6. When I'm in One2One session with someone, what happens if other Viewers attempt to enter my room?

They will see a message advising to visit you a little later as the Chathost is busy in One2One ;-)

Back to Top



7. What does a word before Viewer's Screen Name mean?

All CamContacts Chathosts are featured on our partner (White Label) websites. So what you see before Viewer's Screen Name as he/she chats with you indicates the name of the site this member came from.

Immediately after a Viewer enters your room, our text-chat will tell you the full name of his/her 'home' site. Examples of how such notification may look like:

  • Screen Name has entered the room from CamContacts [CC]
  • Screen Name has entered the room form NorthernAngels [NTA]

As the guy keeps typing, chat will be displaying the shortened name of the site before Viewer's Screen Name:

  • CC/Screen Name
  • NTA/Screen Name

As there can be 'mobile' customers among your Viewers (connecting from their mobile phones instead of a computer), our chat will help you to recognize them by displaying the following message:

connected from a MOBILE PHONE in a private session...

Mobile Service

1. Mobile Video: What is this all about?

CamContacts is now also on mobile phones! CC Network Inc. has the WORLD'S FIRST & LARGEST LIVE VIDEOCHAT SERVICE ON MOBILE PHONES! Various entertainment companies in the UK (our mobile partners) now have access to the large CamContacts Chathosts network, so they can provide millions of their customers with access to YOUR live video! We are also always working hard to add other countries and more mobile partners to our list. This means that soon you are going to have a lot more viewers in your video chatroom to keep you busy :-)

Mobile Videochat is a HUGE technology breakthrough with tons of potential. We are working hard to make the service work and "feel" great. And, this is where YOU, the Chathost, play the main part ;-)

CamContacts Mobile
The usual CC Members registered at www.camcontacts.com enjoy the original CamContacts Mobile service. This Videochat is almost no different from the Internet facility. Same Viewers, same money, same rules :-)

Mobile viewers using Mobile SMS Billing
There are thousands of Mobile Viewers coming from our Mobile partners. Such Mobile partners may use the CamContacts brand or their own name (example). In either case, they all have their own Viewers, different billing (Mobile SMS Billing), different "Who is Online?" categories and legal requirements.

Mobile viewers using Mobile SMS Billing will have access to all Chathosts who accepted the following Videochat Services when starting a new Videochat session on "Start Session" page:

For "Mobile SMS Billing", names of the "Who is Online?" categories are chosen by our partners, which means they can be completely different to the "Who is Online?" categories on CamContacts. This means, that in order to participate in the "Mobile SMS Billing" services, you first need to choose your performance range by selecting your minimum and maximum adult levels in "Edit My Profile" section. Based on your choice, we will automatically put you in the appropriate category for all "Mobile SMS Billing" services.

6. Are there any special rules for "Mobile SMS Billing" sessions?

Yes! "Mobile SMS Billing" video session has to be within the limits of certain broadcast laws. Therefore we have three rules, which we are very strict about:

  1. PERFORM ONLY WHAT IS ALLOWED
    At the start of each mobile session a pop-up box to confirm the video session appears. The pop-up will describe the allowable content and the limit of the session for that Viewer. If you get so excited you forget ;-) the Chat Console also displays the allowable content for the session and has a link to view the limits.

  2. 1.FOLLOW LEGAL RESTRICTIONS (What am I allowed and not allowed to show?)

  3. 1.BE PROFESSIONAL (DO's and DONT's)

The usual Behavior Rules apply as well.

7. What am I allowed and not allowed to show?

For starters, YOU decide ;-)

In Edit My Profile, you can choose both your "Minimum" and "Maximum" Performance Range. Each Adult Level is defined to guide you in choosing the perfect range for you ;-) Only mobile sessions which are within your performance range will be connected to you. At the start of each Mobile session a pop-up box to confirm the video session appears. The pop-up will describe the allowable content and the limit of the session for that Viewer. If you get so excited you forget ;-) the Chat Console also displays the allowable content for the session and has a link to view the limits.

IN ADDITION TO THE ABOVE, THE FOLLOWING IS ALSO NOT ALLOWED (no images, no showing, no discussing):
  1. Child sex
  2. Excretory functions: pooing, simulated pooing, enema, peeing, period, vomiting

8. What are the Dos and Don'ts?

You should know how to treat mobile customers, so they visit you again... and again :-) It's hard to type on mobile phones, so don't expect Mobile Viewers to write too much. It will take ages for them to reply; besides, they expect to see action rather than words, as this service is really expensive on the Viewer's end.

Most important Dos for mobile sessions:

  • Stay in the center of the camera frame; otherwise, users will not see anything and close the session.
  • Keep your movements smooth and slow, because mobiles have SLOW frame rates.
  • Start performing a show once a Viewer requests you to do so.
  • Keep the Viewer interested. Your "main task" is to perform a show and keep the action going.

Most important Don'ts for mobile sessions:

  • No questions about cam - it's impossible for a mobile Viewer to send a cam.
  • No mentioning of One2One - ALL mobile sessions are One2One by default.
  • No discussions of the CamContacts categories or rates - Mobile viewers using Mobile SMS Billing don't know anything about CamContacts.
  • No questions about sound - mobile Viewers cannot have sound
  • No excessive stalling - don't prolong the session by asking pointless questions.

9. Do Mobile viewers using Mobile SMS Billing know about CamContacts?

Mobile viewers using Mobile SMS Billing know nothing about CamContacts website - therefore don't advise them to quit a mobile session and enter video via the Internet. They will not understand you and will not be able to find the CamContacts website.

Back To Top


10. Are all the CamContacts categories available to Mobile Viewers?

Not necessarily, it depends on each particular mobile 'partner site'. Majority will have only a few categories available, such as "A Little Shy", "Not So Shy" and "Girl-Girl" AND they will have different names other than on CamContacts!

Each mobile service may call and categorize online Chathosts in their own way; for example, by age. In this case, Viewers will see such categories as 'Students', 'Lonely Housewives', 'Mature', etc. (with a note saying if the Chathost is shy or not so shy ;-)).

See examples below:

i

Mobile CamContacts "Who Is Online?"

i

Non-CamContacts Mobile "Who Is Online?"

11. Can Mobile viewers using Mobile SMS Billing change their adult level/category?

No.

Each mobile service is like a website which promotes only their own particular "Who is online?" categories. Imagine it like: one service is meant only for Non Adult action... the other - only for Instant Action... the third - for Little Shy action and so on.

Mobile viewers using Mobile SMS Billing cannot choose this. When a customer signs-in for a mobile service using Mobile SMS Billing, he is given certain adult or non-adult categories to choose from and neither he, nor we can change them. They just enjoy the given!

So asking this type of Viewers to change the adult category or similar requests, will only confuse them. They won't know what it is about...

12. Can Mobile Viewers receive sound or send a cam?

No, they can't!

Back To Top


13. Can Mobile Viewers enter free text-chat?

No, they don't have the text-chat only feature and go straight to chargeable video session - so don't let them down ;-)

Back To Top


14. I'm having a regular Internet member in my video. Can a Mobile Viewer interrupt?

No, all mobile sessions work on One2One principle so if you're already having a video session with someone, a mobile member won't interrupt.

Similarly, if you're running a show for a Mobile Viewer, no other member will interfere.

Back To Top


15. Why do "Mobile SMS Billing" Mobile Viewers have such strange Screen Names?

Actually, they don't have Screen Names ;-) What you see as their Screen Name, is a random system-assigned combination of letters and digits, which is never used or seen by the Mobile Viewer.

Back To Top


16. "Mobile SMS Billing" payout

On CamContacts, you can charge any rate you want, but for "Mobile SMS Billing" mobile sessions you will receive a maximum of 50¢ per minute. We make even less!! But this exciting service has a bright future, and we will be working with our mobile partners on ways to increase the payouts!

You don't need to change your CamContacts rates and your Internet 'business' will remain as it is. We will simply bring you additional customers.

17. Mobile Viewers

In general, Mobile Viewers behave differently than the Internet users: they don't have the same 'intimacy' privilege ;-) They are not rude, they are not too quick - they simply are on the mobile phone!

Origin: Europe, Australia, Oceania. Other countries will follow soon.

Age: The full legal range, but expect many quite young (ages 18 to 21).

Location: All possible locations, but above all, anywhere private for intimate viewing ;-)

They send short and rude messages! - Mobile Viewers simply struggle with the phone keyboard :-) To chat and watch video on a mobile is challenging, which often results in minimum communication.

They all may say the same things! - Mostly, they just use the preset phrases. This eases typing for mobile chat, just like SMS.

Do they have cam? - No, they are on a mobile phone, so please never ask!

Can they get into One2One? - Mobile session IS One2One, so please never ask this!

Can they see me on Internet? - No, do not mention the web service as you will confuse them.

So, remember, be professional:

- NO mentioning of One2One or Cams (For example, do not ask, "Do you have cam?").

- NO reference to CamContacts categories or rates.

- NO excessive stalling.

18. I got a question that is not covered above!

Ask us, we'll answer :-)

CamContacts Games cards


1. Adult Strip Games: What is this all about?  cards

At CamContacts we are always looking for new ways for our Viewers and Chathosts to have fun and engage in Live Video Chat. So we're bringing you the Strip HiLo Game, a paid service where Viewers get to play with and against you.

This is an Adult service - it is important to remember that Chathosts should only make themselves available if they are prepared to take all their clothes off – full nudity / strip is required. Any Chathosts that do not feel comfortable with this should not make themselves available for Adult Strip Games.

Back To Top


2. Do I need additional software to play ?

To play Adult Strip Games you will need Adobe Flash Player 7 (or newer) installed. Download Flash Player from Adobe.

Back To Top


3. What is Strip HiLo ?

Strip HiLo is a card game you play with a Viewer for the removal of all your clothes ;-)

The game uses a standard deck of 52 playing cards (Jokers not included!), and consists of several rounds. Every round you and the Viewer start with one open card each, you will then be alternately dealt more cards and will need to guess if your next card will be higher or lower than your previous one.

You will see your cards at the top of the playing screen, and your opponent's right below them. On the revealed cards you will see whether the guess was correct () or not ()

For your convenience, the card you need to guess against is in a brighter color than the cards that have been played.

The order of the cards is Ace (lowest), 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, Jack, Queen, King (highest).

When you lose a round, you will need to remove an item of clothing, until you have no clothes left to remove ;-) If the Viewer loses, the round is restarted.

Strip HiLo is an adult card game, so you can only play if you perform in the CamContacts following adult categories:

  • Girls Home Alone - A little shy
  • Girls Home Alone - Not so shy
  • Girl-Girl
  • Escort & Massage

It is very important to remember that Chathosts should only make themselves available if they are prepared to take all of their clothing off – full nudity / strip is required. Any Chathosts that do not feel comfortable with this rule please do not make yourselves available for the Strip HiLo Game.

4. How to play Strip HiLo ?

Here are step by step instructions of how to play Strip HiLo.

Strip HiLo is a card game you play with a Viewer, who is playing for the removal of your clothes ;-)

HiLo, means Hi – for Higher and Lo – for Lower. The aim of the game is to guess correctly, more times in a row than the Viewer, if your next card will be Higher or Lower (bigger or smaller) than the card before.

Your cards will always be at the top of the screen and your opponent’s at the bottom. When the game starts both you and the Viewer will have your first card uncovered and the rest will be covered. You make your first guess according to your first uncovered card.

At the bottom left of the game screen, you are shown the list of clothes that you are wearing and will be removing. For example, in the picture above, you and the Viewer are playing for removing your shirt.

When the game starts, the Viewer will make the first choice, Higher or Lower. His guess will either be correct or wrong.

When your turn comes to guess, the top row of cards will be highlighted (brighter). Two buttons: red and yellow will appear underneath your cards, allowing you to guess if your next card will be Higher or Lower. In the example picture above, your first card is a 10. You have to guess if your next card (highlighted in blue color) is going to be Higher than the 10( J, Q or a K), or Lower than the 10 (9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 or an Ace).

If your guess is right, you will get a green tick on your card as shown.

The round continues until either you or the Viewer makes the first wrong guess.

There can be three possible outcomes of a round:

  • You guess wrong, Viewer guesses right: You lose the round and remove the item of clothing currently played for; the round is restarted.
  • You guess right, Viewer guesses wrong: You won the round; the round is restarted.
  • You guess wrong, Viewer guesses wrong: A draw is declared (nobody won or lost); the round is restarted.

If you lost a round you will have to remove the item of clothing you were playing for. In this case, it’s the shirt: Feel free to express your stripping talents :) However, try to discover if the Viewer prefers a quick or long teasing strip – this will enhance their experience. If the Viewer starts the next round before you finished taking off the item, just remove it straight away and go on playing :)

Once you have removed your shirt, another round starts, and you’ll be playing for the next item of clothing (in this case, the skirt).

The game continues until you take off all your clothes; after that you may get dressed, or continue chatting or the show.

Note that during the game, you can hide or show the game in your Chat console by using the "Hide Game" / "Show Game" buttons. They are available while no action takes place in the game so that you can take full advantage of the Chat console. When it's your turn, the game will be automatically shown.

5. How do I make myself available for Strip HiLo ?

Setting up a game of Strip HiLo is very easy. Go to the `Start Session' page, and select the box labeled: `I'm available for Adult Strip Games'.

When starting the session you will be asked to choose the clothes you are wearing – what will the Viewer be playing for. You may select a minimum of 3 items of clothing, and a maximum of 6.

You should make absolutely sure not to deceive or lie about the clothes you will be removing. Any attempt to do so will most probably attract unwanted penalties. You have to be prepared to perform a full strip (remove everything you are wearing) – otherwise please do not participate in Adult Games.
