Do you mean not having a bank account, or not letting the government know where you're at?

Depends on which website you are with. Chaturbate and MyFreeCams direct deposits are pretty discreet and do not flat out say CHATURBATE/MYFREECAMS DEPOSIT. I had a friend use the issue a check method and the envelope was also discreet. Now I believe when Streamate issues a check their logo and STREAMATE is on the outside of the envelope (this might have changed, so someone correct me if I am wrong). Payoneer is also a great option, but you may what to check out the fees to use Payoneer from receiving and withdrawing. Some models have said that Payoneer payments come a day or two faster than direct deposit.

If you're worried about using a bank account because of what the incoming deposits say, you can always ask support from the website you are with one that is different than Chaturbate or MyFreeCams. However each site is different and may charge for DD, wire transfer, reissuing a check, so make sure to check with your home site.

If you don't want/have a bank account, then Payoneer would likely be the best way to go. Keep in mind, there have been instances of models losing hefty balances on Payoneer and not getting reimbursed. Now, if you're trying to "stay off the grid" regarding government stuff, you'll be getting a 1099-Misc when tax season comes around, so you'll still be expected to pay taxes. So you know, keep that in mind. Honestly a bank account is really the simplest way to go. Payoneer has loading fees and charges you for ATM withdrawals.

Side note,

Now I believe when Streamate issues a check their logo and STREAMATE is on the outside of the envelope (this might have changed, so someone correct me if I am wrong).

Streamate uses ICF Technology on their payment stubs now.
