Goals & Tip Menu

Your guide to tipping options on CAM4

Tip menu and room goals — earn more by guiding your viewers

Earn more tokens by giving your viewers exactly what they want!
Your fans need to know what you’re willing to do and how to get you to do it. Keep your tip menu and your room goal separate by offering different things.

Pro tip: quick, fun actions keep energy high while tips also contribute to your larger goal.

Tip Menu — what is it?

The Tip Menu is a simple way to boost engagement. Create a list of actions with their token values so viewers know exactly how much it costs to see that action.

Broadcasters using a clear tip menu often see more interaction and higher show revenue.

Tip menu ideas

What you include is up to you — adjust based on what your audience likes.

  • Kiss-hands
  • Mention the viewer’s name or write it on your body
  • Flash breasts
  • Oil massage
  • Spanking
  • Twerk
  • Use toy for 15 seconds
  • Be creative — the sky is the limit!

Set up your Tip Menu

How to set it up

Find the Tip Menu near the Game Center and add your actions with the required tip amount.

Note: you must enter at least four (4) actions to activate your tip menu for viewers.

Setting up the tip menu

Manage & notifications

You can add up to 12 options. Use the trash icon to delete/update. Ready? Click SAVE to activate.

Once a tip menu is activated, you can’t remove it from your live show.

Your tip menu is automatically promoted in your chat so viewers know it’s active. When someone purchases an item, a special notification appears in chat.

Room Goal

Besides individual actions, you can also add goals. Goals are a joint challenge: viewers tip together to reach your target — once it’s hit, you perform the action.

Use goals for bigger actions, but start with micro-goals to maintain tension and give quick wins.

How to set it up

Once live, set your Goal! Click the white bar (right of the fire emoji) at the bottom of the broadcast window. Type the name of the action you will perform when the room goal is hit.

Then set the price: find the “Goal” box to the right of the grey bar that says “Token Goal not set” and add the amount in tokens.

Set your goal

Know your value

Think about what you want to do and how much you want to make before you go live. You don’t want goals that are too easy or too hard.

Example: want 1000 tokens (~$100 USD) per show? Split into four goals of 250 tokens.

  • Goal 1: 250 tokens = Naked
  • Goal 2: 250 tokens = Oil show
  • Goal 3: 250 tokens = Playing with yourself
  • Goal 4: 250 tokens = Cumming (only if you feel comfortable with that)

Pro tip: stick to your goals. If you keep changing them, it looks like you’re hesitating — viewers notice immediately.

UK DAC7 – Important Information on Data Collection for Payments

Although the UK is not subject to DAC7, we are updating our processes to align with global standards, including similar European regulations like DAC7. These changes mean we need to collect additional information from broadcasters/creators to process payments. Providing accurate information is essential to avoid issues with payouts.

Why are we collecting this information?

To comply with international transparency standards, we are required to gather specific details from our users. These regulations aim to prevent tax fraud and ensure payments are processed correctly. While DAC7 applies to the EU, aligning with these standards allows us to maintain a consistent and secure platform for all users, including those in the UK.

What information do we collect?

We may request details such as:

  • Your full name
  • Your address
  • Your National Insurance Number (NIN)

These details are necessary for compliance with tax regulations and transparency standards. Your information will only be used for these purposes and shared with tax authorities as legally required.

What is a National Insurance Number, and where can you find it?

Your National Insurance Number (NIN) is a unique identifier issued by the UK government for tax and social security purposes.

You can find it on:

  • Payslips
  • Tax return documents
  • Your personal tax account on the HMRC website
  • National Insurance card (if issued)
  • Official letters about tax, pensions, or benefits

What if you don’t have a fixed address?

If you’re traveling or don’t have a permanent residence, determining your tax residency can be more complex. Generally, your tax residency is the country where you spend more than six months (183 days) in a year. We recommend reviewing the tax laws of the countries where you’ve stayed to identify your tax residency.

Does this mean authorities will know what you do on the platform?

No. We only report payment transactions based on the information you provide. The nature of your activities on the platform will not be disclosed.

What happens if you don’t provide the required information?

Starting January 2025, providing this information will be mandatory to continue receiving payments. If the required details aren’t submitted, we won’t be able to process your payouts. Submit your information on time to avoid any interruptions.

When and how do you submit your information?

We will begin collecting this information in December. Once you log in, you’ll receive instructions on how to securely submit your details.

What happens to your information?

Your information will be used exclusively to comply with regulations like DAC7 and similar global standards. It will be shared with relevant tax authorities as required by law and handled in accordance with applicable privacy laws.

Questions?

If you have any questions or need assistance, contact our support team at payments@cam4.com or consult the UK government.
