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 SENDER SOFTWARE by clicking on the GO ONLINE button.
This will start the software in a new window (to know more about the Sender Software read the NeedLive Software section)


HORIZONTAL MENU

As a performer on our site you have many opportunities to meet new members and keep in touch with them.

WISHLIST

We have a WISHLIST, where members can write about their wishes, fantasies, about what kind of a girl they are looking for.
You can read them and reply to them inviting the member into your chatroom – just click on the WISHLIST button.


MESSAGES

Another way to 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 NeedLive.com by clicking on the MESSAGES tab. If you would like to send something to a member then click on --> Write messages then choose Model to Viewer then type the desired member's viewer ID. When you start to type the viewer ID then the system lists the possible member IDs, choose the right one from there (click on it). You can send pictures and videos too to the members through the MESSAGES 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 selected images from your performer account gallery too or you can send the URL of the website where the picture can be found as well. 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!


COMMENTS

Members are allowed to make comments about Performers. You can find it under COMMENTS where you can moderate it, ban the member or reply to the comment The more comments you have, the better you will attract visitors' attention! Also note that the comments are visible on your bio page even when you are offline so you even may catch someone's attention when you are not online.

BAN COUNTRIES

If you would not like to have viewers from a country or more countries (e.g. from your own country) then you can select and BAN these countries under this section.

If you ban a selected country then visitors from that country will not be able to:

  • find you on the Who's Online page.
  • enter your chat room (free, members only, voyeur, private session)
  • check your BIO page (including your uploaded pictures, profile video, etc)
  • find you in the performer 'Search' field on the Who's Online page.


We distinguish two types of visitors in our new, professional country banning system:

  • GUESTS and NEW MEMBERS (new members are the same as guests but they created a free member account)
  • ACTIVE MEMBERS (active member = member who bought credits at least once)


The selected countries can be changed any time under this menu with the help of the arrows.

  • If you banned a country then users from that country cannot access your room, do not find your profile on the site at all and cannot see your photo contest images either
  • will not see your profile image in Model Awards, contests at all. They will see a sample image instead.
  • only the first letter of your performer username will be seen in Model Awards and contests for visitors from a banned country. So instead of MystiqueMilla for example there will be 'M...' written only.
  • The online status indicator in the Model awards and contest pages will always show you offline for a visitor from a banned country, even if you are in free chat, members only mode, private or break mode.

MY IMAGES

Your pictures can be handled under menu MY IMAGES. You can upload your own pictures here and move them to folders.

  • You can create albums and manage them (e.g. to move from one album to another) with the help of the buttons found at the bottom of the page.
  • Please mind that there are TWO MAIN CATEGORIES under GALLERY: FREE PICTURES and MEMBERS ONLY pictures. When you upload pictures mind which folder you put them in. e.g. nude, explicit pictures should be uploaded to FOR MEMBERS folder.

  • they advertise any other website (pictures made at other sites and containing the website's URL or logo)
  • they advertise a cam splitter program (like splitcam, manycams, ...) (cam splitter programs sometimes put their logo on the live camera picture)

MY CONTENTS

Please read more about it under the Content sales page


STATISTICS

Share system (%)


We give our Performers the chance to earn up to 80% with a new, favourable payout system.
You can read more about the Performer share system under this page

Per minute prices

You can set your per-minute prices in Performer area under Profile settings. Read more about it under PROFILE SETTINGS

If you set your STANDARD PRIVATE SHOW price to 1,99 $ / minute then a member will pay 1,99 $ for every minutes he spends in your private show. Here is an example that represents the way you get your share (%) from the private shows:

Let’ s say your private show per-minute price is 1,99 $ (the most common per-minute price among performers) and the member spends 10 minutes in your room. It means that the member paid 19,9 $ (10 x 1,99) for the time (10 minutes) spent in your private room. Based on our share system (%) you can get even 90% of it which is (19,9 ÷ 100) x 90 = 17,91 $.
Click here to check the private show (standard and 1on1) and phone service prices.


Here are those show types (charge types) that have fix prices:

0,99 credits / minute:

  • VOYEUR has a fixed price of 0,99 credits per minute (fix price, not optional). Read the VOYEUR chapter to understand this feature.



Statistics explanation


In performer area under STATISTICS menu you can check the earnings made on the days you were online. 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. (to read more about Earning Periods click here).

Under Turnover Date you can see:

  • the days of the selected period
  • the total earnings you have made in the selected period until now ($)
  • the total time you spent in Private sessions or Voyeur (hour-minute-second form).
  • the total earnings ($) of each day


Click on the date you are curious about and you will see the happenings of the chosen day in details. You can see the member's viewer ID who visited you including the way the user brought you the earnings (Charge types)

You can find the following Charge Types here:

CHARGE TYPE EXPLANATION
Private = Standard Private, read more about it under STANDARD PRIVATE
1on1 Private read more about it under ONE-ON-ONE
Voyeur you can read more about it at VOYEUR section.
TIP members can send you Gifts for the price of 2, 5, 8, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50 credits. You get a % from the prices of the Gifts, it depends on which % level you are in (you can check it out under this section)
TopModelAwards we run Model Awards for our performers, if you won on any of them then the amount you won will be appeared like this. Read the details about Top Model Awards here and to see the Model Awards page on the site click on this link
Charge Back / Refund we do our best with our Risk Team 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 changed his mind 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 he was right then we give back him the credits spent on you.
Bonus we usually run special contests, if you won on it you will see the amount like this.
VIDEO you can record a show that members can watch for credits. If you see you have a 'VIDEO' charge type then it means that a member watched your prerecorded video. Read more about recorded shows here
