Hi everyone i have some questions regarding chaturbate ?

[prolduk]

i have earned some tokens and i have some questions ... 1 ) whats the best way to get paid if you live in europe ? 2) why do they ask for your address on the payment info form ? i dont feel too safe to say where i live what do you think ? should my credit card be enough ? 3 ) can a friend of mine cash my earnings with his payoneer or his paxum ? or am i forced to do one too because my name should be the same ? .
ps. what would happen if a put a fake address? and if I put my real address will they send mails ? ( I live with parents !)
thanks !!

You can put a different address although technically you're not supposed to. Your payment account needs to be in your name though or your registered business name. I'm in the UK and the only viable option seems to be payoneer card x

It sounds like you were just messing around on cam and happened to make some tokens. Unless you're going to pursue being an actual cam model, I would suggest not cashing out the tokens and just using them on other performers on the site. It likely isn't going to be worth the trouble for you to go through the process of filling out your personal info.

This forum is geared more toward cam models who make a job out of this, not so much ones who feel like showing off on cam as a hobby or just for a thrill on a whim. People who take this job seriously wouldn't have an issue knowing what needs to be provided to the cam site to receive a paycheck from their efforts.

thanks ! do you receive mails from them if you put your true address? and can I cash them now and take them in some months ahead or they will disappear ? it's quite unfair that j can't cash them with a friend card no ? thk

What your asking is the equivalent of say getting hired at a pizza place and telling your boss to make your checks out to someone else. It ant happen. It is against the law in the us and Canada as far as I know.

It is fraud.


You owe taxes on the tokens you made there so when your tax year is over you will pay your govt taxes on what you made. Sticking the money with your buddy would be fraud but also rude. And just like any job they need your address, they don't send mail as far as I know? Again, putting an address that isn't yours is fraud.

You should have thought of the realities of this before you cammed.

That's what I think is so shitty about Chaturbate's "anyone can be a broadcaster" setup. It allows people to jump into it without thinking, without planning, without intention to treat this seriously.

I think you maybe are seeing tokens as 'gifts' - if you use a camsite to cash out you are considered an independant contractor and this money is considered money you earn like any other income. Basically, it's a job. So you're required to do all the same kind of paperwork as you would for a job, in order to get paid. There will also be a paper trail. Less so, if you live in europe but please don't make the mistake of thinking that no one will ever be able to find out that you worked on a camsite if you cash out. You will also need to report the earnings and pay taxes on them - it's considered taxable income.
