MyFreeCams (MFC) is a really "neighborhood based" web cam website, in that it has lots of methods for members to communicate with each other in addition to talking with webcam girls. It has a substantial database of emotes and user-uploaded images to utilize in chat, several "Lounges" where members can chat with other members while watching designs, member-created lounges called "Member Rooms", the ability for members to turn on their own web cam for other members and web cam girls to view, and a basic open and free feeling to it that many other web cam websites do not have.
For this reason, it is essential for webcam girls on MFC to have a pretty social way about their camera shows. Talking in Free Chat is a very big part of a cam lady's time on MFC.
Types of programs available
Free Chat
Webcam women have the ability to get pointers at any time while on MFC, and are preferred in Free Chat. Many cam women do token "countdowns" in complimentary chat to do programs for the public audience to see.
Private
Private programs on MFC are 60 tokens per minute for the member. In a Private, other members can "Spy" on the show for 20 tokens per minute, but can not engage with the design throughout the program or see any of the typed chat during the show.
Real Private
True private shows are also offered without the capability for others to spy, and are 80 tokens per minute for the member. The member must turn on this setting in their own alternatives prior to starting a private show with the web cam girl. The member who initiates the personal will receive a video "archive" of the program (so long as it is over 90 seconds).
Group
Group programs are an economical choice for members at just 10 tokens per minute. 3 members must click to "sign up with group" in order to initiate the show, and as soon as the camera woman accepts and starts the group, there is no limitation to the amount of members allowed in the show. So long as a minimum of 1 member stays in the show it will advance unless the webcam lady ends it herself. Members in a group show do not get a video archive.
All of these programs are at the discretion of the webcam girl, as she is able to accept or deny any of them before entering into a paid show. Models are able to enable/disable the choice for members to start group shows or personal shows in their broadcaster settings.
Placement on Homepage
The Homepage of MFC, by default, is arranged by something called Camscore. MFC does not openly state what the exact computation of a camscore is, however it is normally understood by many cam girls on the site that it is is approximately based upon the quantity of tokens she makes per hour that she is broadcasting online over a (Calendar) 60-day average. The greater a webcam lady's camscore, the greater her positioning will be on MFC's homepage, and thus, the more traffic she is most likely to get due to much better visibility to members.
There are other options that members have for sorting their homepage. Other sorting methods include: number of individuals in their chatroom, alphabetically, most recently logged on, latest on the site, random.
Incomes and Payouts
Webcam girls get $0.05 for each token made. This indicates that webcam women on MFC earn a minimum of 50% since the rate of tokens for members is in between $0.079 and $0.10 per token. (See below for token bundles.).
Pay durations on MFC begin on the 1st and 16th of monthly. MFC runs on PST/PDT time, so the periods end at 11:59 PST/PDT.

The greater token plans not available to members right now, and seem to be offered when a member has actually acquired the smaller sized token plans on a regular and constant basis without any charge card issues. Members also might experience "spending limitations" up until their information/credit card info is verified with the admins on MFC.
There are likewise smaller sized token plans readily available after the initial purchase of at least 200 tokens. These smaller packages vary from $1.49 for 10 tokens through $9.99 for 95 tokens. (When members use these smaller purchase bundles, which I would believe is more rare than the basic packages, that is the only time models receive less than 50% of the purchase rate.).
Types of member accounts.
Visitors.
A visitor is an individual viewing without utilizing an email address and password to register or check in.
Basics.
A basic is a person who has registered with an email address and a password and created a username, but has actually not acquired any tokens. Fundamentals have more functions available to them than a visitor, however aren't able to PM (Private Message) designs or use MFC mail, nor can they tip or watch any paid programs (private, voyeur, group) since they have not acquired tokens.
Premiums.
A premium is an individual who has actually registered with an email address and a password and developed a username, and has acquired a minimum of one bundle of tokens. Premiums have access to all the functions that MFC needs to use, including the capability to MFC mail or PM designs as well as other members. (Remember that designs can switch off the ability for members to PM them or need a certain tip to allow them.).
As soon as an individual ends up being Premium, they start to accrue Reward Points (RP) at the rate of 1 RP per 10 tokens acquired. Higher RP allows a premium member certain additional choices such as a bigger selection of font choices or font color options. Extra Lounges are available to those with higher RP.
