Your Guide to Earning Big with Pay-Per-Text on CAM4!


Hey Creator, Ready to Boost Your Earnings?

Imagine this: every message you receive or media file you get from your fans directly puts tokens in your pocket. Sounds amazing, right? That’s exactly what Pay-Per-Text (PPT) on CAM4 does for you. It’s time to take control of your chat, maximize your earnings, and create deeper, more meaningful connections with your fans. Let’s dive in and get you set up for success!


Why Pay-Per-Text Is a Game-Changer for You

  1. Get Paid for Your Time
    Every message or media file your fans send is now a chance to earn. Yes, even that quick “hello” can add up to tokens in your account.

  2. Build Your Inner Circle
    Want to make your Fan Club the hottest spot? Reward members with free or discounted interactions while charging others a premium. It’s a win-win!

  3. Total Control, Your Way
    You decide how much to charge and for what. Want to charge only for photos or prioritize Fan Club messages? The choice is all yours.

  4. A Premium Experience for Fans
    Fans love feeling special! By charging for messages and media, you’re offering them guaranteed attention and an exclusive connection with you.

  5. Track Your Success
    CAM4 makes it easy to see exactly how much you’re earning from PPT, so you can fine-tune your strategy and watch those tokens roll in.


How to Set Up Pay-Per-Text (It’s Super Simple!)

Step 1: Let’s Get Ready!

First things first, make sure you’re Broadcast Approved and that the Pay-Per-Text feature is enabled in your settings. Easy!

Step 2: Set Up While Streaming

  1. Start Your Broadcast
    Log in and go live!

  2. Access Your Chat Settings
    Click the cogwheel icon (top-right corner) in the Broadcast Window. Scroll down to find the PPT options.

  3. Turn On Token Charges
    Flip the toggle for Receive Message Settings to start earning tokens for public and Fan Club messages.
    Example: Set 5 tokens for public messages and 1 token for Fan Club members (or keep it free to encourage signups).

    Do the same for Receive Media Settings to earn from photos and videos.
    Example: Charge 10 tokens for public uploads and 2 tokens for Fan Club uploads.

  4. Let CAM4 Do the Rest
    No need to hit save—your settings are updated instantly.

Step 3: Pre-Configure in the Messenger Interface

Want to set things up before you go live? No problem! Head to the Messenger Interface via the Chat Icon on your profile. Adjust your PPT settings, and they’ll sync across the platform.

Make the Most of Pay-Per-Text

  • Treat Your Fan Club Like VIPs
    Let’s be real: your Fan Club is your squad. Offer them free or reduced-rate messages to build loyalty while charging higher rates for everyone else.

  • Experiment with Token Rates
    Try different pricing to see what works best for your fans. The sweet spot is where your earnings soar, and your fans stay engaged.

  • Test It Out First
    Use a test account or ask a trusted viewer to make sure your settings work perfectly before going live.

  • Be Clear and Upfront
    Fans appreciate transparency. Display token charges clearly so there are no surprises—just good vibes.


Watch Your Earnings Grow!

Head to your Broadcaster Dashboard to track every token you earn from messages and media. It’s all broken down for you under the Tip History tab, so you know exactly where your success is coming from.

Feeling curious? Check out the Tipping Reports to see which strategies are working best. Is it media uploads? Fan Club messages? You’ve got all the insights at your fingertips.


FAQs (Because We Know You’ll Crush It!)

  • Can I charge for just one thing, like media?
    Absolutely! You’re in control, so choose what works for you.

  • What if a viewer doesn’t have enough tokens?
    No worries—they’ll get a prompt to buy more before their message or media goes through.

  • Are Fan Club messages free by default?
    Yep, but you can change that. Charge a little or keep them free—it’s totally your call.


Pay-Per-Text isn’t just a feature—it’s your gateway to more earnings, more connections, and more control over your time and energy. Ready to turn every interaction into an opportunity? Let’s do this! Your fans are waiting, and those tokens are yours to claim. 💎

Navigating Direct Messaging

We have heard your feedback and elevated your DM experience.

To support you as you become familiar with messenger’s great features, we have provided you with an easy to follow guide to all of the Chat and Media functionality, and so much more!

The first thing you’ll notice about this new communication tool is how much easier it is to use, as well as it providing far more than just the ability to chat!

BENEFITS OF USING CAM4 MESSENGER

  • Increased Privacy – Create connections with only the users that you choose though chat and Private shows.
  • Filtering Options – Easy access to important information and content.
  • MonetizationEarn tokens while chatting through tipping, selling content, gifting, and Private shows.
  • Mobile Friendly – Now it’s easy to use our new Messenger tool on the go!

CHAT UPGRADES

As well as the common features, such as saving, replying, deleting, adding Gifs, and Emojis,  you now have additional tools to make messages stand out and have control over who messages you. Let’s break down a few of them for you.

WINKS
Wink’s are sent from Non-gold users who would like to chat with you. The ability to type in the chat will only be enabled once you reply to their wink.

Gold users can message anyone they want – No winks needed!

SELL CONTENT

With this feature within the Media functionality of Messenger, you can add content from your ‘My Shop’ and ‘Galleries’ directly into the chat, allowing the user to purchase and enjoy.

FAN CLUBS
You can share your Fan Club Content via the chat. This will allow you to promote your ‘Fan Club’, and the user can simply click on the link to view it. They will then be prompted to join, and once they have, the content will be visible to them in the chat.

HOST A PRIVATE SHOW

Offer Private Shows at any time through Messenger!

Don’t worry about going live on your profile, your users can now request a Private Show directly with you from Messenger! 

This super function allows both creators and users to enjoy some alone time, without the possibility of others spying. Turn on Cam2Cam or keep it a 1-way private show – whichever you both want to explore.

You can start the Private Show yourself by simply clicking on the camera icon at the top right of the chat window – another great feature to make the process quick and easy.

Remember – once the show has ended, the user can rate the show, a great way to gain feedback. Also, the earnings gained from the show will appear in the chat, giving you instant insight without having to review your account.

SAFETY AND INFORMATION

REPORTING USERS
Fill out and submit a report form to our support team to investigate. Note: this will not remove the user’s ability to contact you.

BAN USERS
This facility will mean that the user will be removed from your chat and also banned from your shows. The user will still be able to see the chat, as well as any media they have purchased from you, but they won’t be able to contact you. Additionally, your username will no longer appear in any searches by the user.

CHAT BOT “SPARK”
Receive answers right away to questions you have about messenger, your shows, the site, and rules right from your chat window!

 

ORGANIZING WITH FILTERS

Use filtering to keep your messenger nice and organized. Grouping and saving important messages is a breeze and you can also select and delete multiple messages to manage your inbox!

EDIT THREADS
Remove unwanted chat session in bulk so your inbox isn’t cluttered with old DMs. 

MEDIA
All of the media you send or receive in the chat will appear in the Media Tab. The content can be sorted by ‘Unlocked’, ‘Photos’ and ‘Videos’, making it super easy to find! 

SAVING
You fans send you important information that you may want to easily find later. While in your chat with them, click on the “Saved” tab to see all messages you saved from that user. Messages and content that you save, will appear chronologically.


We think the new CAM4 Messenger is the perfect way to enhance the interface between creators and users, making it easier for everyone to stay in touch.
