Performer area

You can log in to your Performer Area here or by clicking on the Performer Login at the bottom of the Who's online page. Fill in the fields with your Performer name and password and click on the Login button.
You can start your SoulCams Model Application by clicking on the GO ONLINE button. This will start the application in a new window (to know more about the Sender Software read the SoulCams Model Application section)

Main page

• Sum up statistics: you can see your main performance at the top of the main page in special boxes. We collected the most important stats in these boxes that models would like to know. Clicking on a desired box you will be directed to the detailed menu of it.
• Upcoming and currently running promotions / contests on SoulCams: We usually have more promotions running in the same time for models. You can see a chart where the main details of the promotion can be found (duration, total prize, a link where you can read more about it and a link to the current ranks)

Messages

A perfect way of keeping contact the Members is to use the inbuilt message system at the menu called Messages.
This is where you get system notifications, for example about votes given on your show. You can use this messaging system to write messages to members of SoulCams.com by clicking on the MESSAGES tab. If you would like to send something to a member then click on Write messages then type the desired member's viewer ID. When you start to type the viewer ID, system lists the possible member usernames for you, choose the right one from there (click on it). You can send pictures and videos too to the members through the messaging system. If you have any pictures on your PC you can easily send them to any members just like sending and email but you can send images uploaded to your gallery already by clicking on Browse from gallery. Sending video links is also possible, if you would like to share a youtube video with a member you can easily do it! Do not forget to type a message as well to the member, do not send only links or pictures, write them at least some lines! It is important to keep in touch with your customers, notify them when you are online and talk to them a bit even when they won't come online. Showing them interest can have a long-term effect!

Statistics

Models have a detailed performer statistics menu where incomes can be seen in real-time.
Please note that if you work under a studio account then your studio boss may disable or restrict the Statistics menu for you.
First of all choose the period you would like to check and click on OK, basically the present period is selected.
First you see a chart containing a summary of your income types based on the selected month or period

You can find the following Charge Types here:

CHARGE TYPE	EXPLANATION
Standard private	more members can join the show in the same time (maximum 4 members). If you are having a Standard private session, other members will not be able to start a ONE-ON-ONE show until the current show finishes. Read more about it here
1on1 Private	only 1 member can see you and chat with you, other members can not join the show or use the voyeur option Read more about it here
Voyeur	members can peek in your room if you are in private session or in members only' mode. They CANNOT TYPE, only watch your live stream. If you are having a ONE-ON-ONE show, other members will not be able to peek in your room with Voyeur feature Read more about it here
Tip	members can send you virtual gifts while you are online or normal tips both when you are online or offline.
Photo vote	During special photo contests you can receive votes from members if you uploaded pictures.
Awards	we run Model Awards for our performers, if you won a prize, it will appear like this. Read the details about Top Model Awards here
New member bonus	We sometimes run special new member bonus periods. It means that we give you a fix bonus for referring new members to us.
Performer referral	You can refer fellow performers to SoulCams and get 10% share lifetime from their earnings and a one-time special referral bonus of $50 after each of them. Read more about the Performer referral system here
Loyalty bonus	Based on our Loyalty program if you earn at least $2000 monthly in 6 consecutive months and we will reward you with $1000 bonus. Read more about the Loyalty Program here
Bonus	We usually run special contests for performers. If you won any prize, you will see it like this. You can check out out previous performer contests here
Deductions	Charge Back / Refund: we do our best to fight against credit card frauds (credit card abuse, using stolen card, ...) but it happens rarely that it cannot be avoided. In these cases we need to deduct the spent amount from your earnings and you will see it with either Charge Back or Refund entry. If you see a REFUND entry in your statistics then it may mean that the member and asked his transaction back. Refunds also may happen if the billing company (billing company = members buy credits through this) realised that the transaction is fraudulent and they find it better to refund the transaction before it becomes chargeback. Cancel: if a member makes a complain about your private show and the complaint was grounded then we give back his credits.

Turnover Date:

• here you can see the detailed statistics of the selected period. Basically you see the daily stats but clicking on a desired day you will see the detailed stats of the selected day
• you can see the member username who spent credits in your room, what kind of spend it was, your % from it, the date when it was finished, its duration (in case of private shows and voyeur only) and your share in USD.

Online:
