It gets confusing when payments to Cam4 models are described as 'tips'. For me, a tip is an unsolicited payment in appreciation for a service that's been given. Too many of them solicit or demand payments before giving anything. To my mind that's the difference between prostitution and just camming for fun. If someone shows their appreciation for your efforts by giving you a payment because they enjoy your room, chat or camming, then that's fine. Just don't start demanding payments for performing particular acts.
It can also be counter-productive. In my experience, the guys that are just there to demand payments do worse than those who actively engage with their visitors, just check out guys like Mansaf68 to see what I mean. I've seen him get 40000 tokens (that would be 4000 at the new rate) while staying fully dressed and just chatting at work.

I regularly view Cam4. Most of my favorites never ask for any tokens at all.
While some people demand a certain number before even showing anything off. I stay away from those. If you want to show yourself off for the simple pleasure of letting others see you I think that is fine. But if your intent is to make it a second job then I would say unless you are hung like John Holmes or drop dead gorgeous you had better reconsider. Go on and watch for awhile to satisfy your curiosities.

Cam 4 has become a token whore’s paradise, AND a cash cow for the website.



I’ve only see one couple (2london_W14) on the site that NEVER accepts tokens, and when they discovered they somehow had 50 tokens in credits they gave the money to charity.



I do understand that some of the members are students and use to tokens for extra income. Nothing wrong with a few extra pennies, but if that makes them a prostate then Cam4 is the pimp because they get their cut of the deal.



Some of the members truly do appreciate chatting with the broadcaster, but would be nice if they could receive the full amount of the token value.



If you as a member purchase 100 tokens, you pay $18.99 but when the performer cashes out those 100 tokens they only receive $10.00. Guess who keeps the other $8.99?


Yep the Cam 4 pimps.
