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.

Viewers in your chat will be indicated by color coded usernames representing 5 different token tiers alongside their corresponding viewer type (Gold Member, Fanclub Subscriber, Moderator) showing you what they have spent in tokens over the last 2 weeks

 

TIER 1: WHITE = Has not spent any tokens in the past 2 weeks

TIER 2: BLUE = Has spent at least 1 token but not more than 19 in the past 2 weeks

What is Cam2Cam?

Cam2Cam

Cam2Cam is a Private Show option that allows Viewers to display their camera feed to Broadcasters

As opposed to the traditional Private Show on CAM4 where only the viewer can watch the broadcaster

Cam2Cam offers low latency for both audio and video, with a custom price that can be different from the regular Private Show price.

Good to know:

– Cam2Cam only works if both streamer and viewer are logged in on the desktop and use the Chrome browser

– The price for Cam2Cam  per minute is typically around 1.25 times the private show price per minute

Access the private show settings by clicking on the gear icon beside the “Private Show Requests button”. You can set the price for Cam2cam shows and then add a checkmark beside “Allow Cam2Cam”  to activate the feature once you press save.

 

Once your viewer allows CAM4 to share their cam you will see a Private show Request. Open your requests and as you can see below they have enabled their Cam2cam for this show.

 

What you will see after accepting the Private Show:

  1. The Viewer’s Stream. It is displayed by default in a small rectangular shape in the top left corner of the screen

  2. The Resize Indicator which lets users know that the window is resizeable. The window also be moved anywhere on the screen

  3. Cam2Cam Controls, split in 2 elements (3 and 4). Element 3 is the “Mute Audio” button, which will mute (or unmute) the Viewer’s stream. When pressed, the icon will update to reflect this change.

  4. Cam2Cam Controls, split in 2 elements (3 and 4). Element 4 is the “Volume” slider, which allows the Broadcaster to adjust the Viewer’s volume. Its behaviour is identical to the Volume slider present on the Viewer-side video player.

 

Adding the Cam2cam to your Private Shows is a great way to earn more and give your viewers a more intimate experience. By keeping you on the CAM4 platform, you can trust that your experience will be not only easy, but safe and secure.
