Stripchat Doubles Payout for Italian Models.
Stripchat doubles payout for Italian models, following the lockdown of Italy on Monday evening. Both new and existing models based in Italy will qualify for these increased payments. This offer aimed at providing an amplified revenue stream for Italian models, and anticipating increased demand by Italian consumers.
“The adult industry needs to find ways to support those in our workforce who are affected by these quarantines and shutdowns,” says Max Bennet, Vice President of New Media for Stripchat. “Adult businesses are likely to see an increase in traffic over the next few weeks, and we need to do what we can to help support models in this time of need.”
Bennet says the double payout is currently scheduled until the end of March but could be lifted if the Italian lockdown is lifted earlier — or extended if it isn’t. Stripchat says it’s open to extending the offer to other countries as is needed.
How will this impact users?
To help increase the supply of money to performers, Stripchat is also providing new users with an exceptional opportunity to dive into a free virtual date with a model of their choice. Users without a current Stripchat account should contact new.user@stripchat.com, with the subject “COVID.” They will receive further instructions for registration. After following the instructions, the new account will be credited with 320 tokens, which the user can spend to enjoy a free private session. Stripchat says that the offer is valid for a limited time.
“It’s a bit unconventional, but it’s the type of stimulus that works exceeding well for the crisis,” says Bennet. “On one hand, you have millions of people, many of whom might live alone, in need of companionship. On the other, you have models in need of income. Let’s get them together and keep everyone safe. A virus can’t travel through a laptop, but an emotional connection can.”
In the meantime, the coronavirus crisis continues to unfold across the world. Therefore, any events created to improve the situation should be welcomed. Stripchat has already begun reaching out to Italian models, offering them to stream via its platform and multiplying their revenue. The offer is valid only for accounts where all documents are Italian.
This offer has expired on March 31, 23:59 (GMT+2).
