Cam4 Private Shows

Private Shows are a powerful way to earn more on CAM4. CAM4 now offers three types of private shows to give you and your viewers flexible options. While in a Private Show, you can enable Spy mode to allow additional viewers to watch (but not chat) for a per-minute fee. You can enable or disable Private Show functions at any time.

1. What Are the Three Types of Private Shows?

CAM4 offers three distinct private show formats:

Per Minute Private Shows

• Viewers pay a set rate per minute
• Show continues until viewer runs out of tokens or either party ends it
• Pricing options: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 40, 50, 60, 80, 100, or 120 tokens/minute
• Spy pricing: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, or 60 tokens/minute

Fixed Rate Private Shows

• Sell shows in time blocks (e.g., 15 minutes for 50 tokens)
• Viewer purchases a set duration upfront
• System prompts when time is about to expire
• Viewers can buy more tokens or additional time during the show
• Spies still pay per-minute rates

Solo Private Shows

• Allows you to stream on multiple platforms simultaneously
• You go into "Solo Private" mode on CAM4
• Viewers see you're "in a private show" but can still Spy (if enabled)
• Maintains your CAM4 room position while doing shows elsewhere

2. What is a Private Show?

Private Shows let viewers get an exclusive one-on-one experience with private chat that only you and the viewer can see. You earn tokens every second based on your chosen pricing structure.

3. What is a Spy Show?

During a Private Show, other viewers may watch as "Spies." Spies pay per minute to watch the broadcast but cannot see or participate in the chat.

4. How Do I Enable Private Shows?

Private Show requests can be enabled and disabled from the toolbar below the broadcast window or through your Private Show settings.

5. What Happens When a Private Show Ends?

When you're ready, end the Private Show by clicking the End Current Show button. You'll return to your public broadcast.

6. What Happens to My Other Viewers During a Private Show?

While in a Private Show, your public viewers may remain in the room and chat. If you have Spy Shows enabled, viewers can watch the broadcast (without seeing chat) by paying the spy rate per minute.

7. Can I Disable Spies in My Private Shows?

Yes. Spy Shows can be toggled in your Private Show Settings. Note: Enabling Spy Shows is a great way to earn extra tokens and keep viewers engaged during Private Shows.

8. What Happens to My Goals During a Private Show?

The goals on your public broadcast remain active and will continue once you return after your Private Show ends.

9. Can Members Tell If I'm in a Private Show?

Yes. During Private Shows:

• Your directory thumbnail displays a key-shaped icon
• A notice appears on your broadcast window
• Viewers who enter your room can wait for the show to finish or watch as spies (if enabled)

10. How Do Viewers Request a Private Show?

If you have Private Shows enabled, viewers can request a show by clicking the Request Private Show button below your broadcast feed.

11. How Do I Accept Private Show Requests?

Notifications for Private Show requests appear on the toolbar below the broadcast window. Pending requests also appear here if you're already in a Private Show.

12. How Do I Earn Tokens from Private Shows?

Per Minute Options:

• 6 Tokens/Minute (Spy: 3 tokens/min)
• 12 Tokens/Minute (Spy: 6 tokens/min)
• 18 Tokens/Minute (Spy: 6 tokens/min)
• 24 Tokens/Minute (Spy: 6 or 12 tokens/min) [default]
• 30 Tokens/Minute (Spy: 6 or 12 tokens/min)
• And higher tiers up to 120 tokens/minute

Fixed Rate:

Set custom time blocks with set prices (e.g., 15 min for 50 tokens)

Solo Private:

Use your standard per-minute pricing while broadcasting elsewhere

13. How Long Are Private Shows?

• Per Minute: Continues until the viewer runs out of tokens or either party clicks End Private Show
• Fixed Rate: Lasts for the purchased time block, with option to extend
• Solo Private: Duration determined by you and the external platform

14. What's the Difference Between Private Rooms and Private Shows?

• Private Rooms (Gold Members only): Password-protected rooms that only users with the password and 2257 approved broadcasters can enter
• Private Shows (All Broadcasters): Pay-per-minute or fixed-rate exclusive sessions that create a separate private broadcast
