      Answers to Frequently-Asked Questions:

      Can I make money at this?

        Yes  . . .  if that's why you're here. (Many chathosts use iFriends just to express themselves or to meet new friends or to help others – for free – while others are attracted by the e-commerce platform). But if your interest in iFriends also has a financial dimension, we have exciting news to share with you: Your potential earnings are not limited to just a few dollars here and there, but to bigtime green! How big? Very big: Some individual iFriends chathosts have already generated more than one million dollars on the iFriends platform. (That's right: a single iFriends Video Chathost -- someone like you -- can generate more than a million dollars on iFriends).

        How can you become an "iFriends Millionaire"? Easy: Work hard, do what the pros do, and take advantage of all of the income-generating opportunities available to you on iFriends. For inspirational success stories from chathosts just like you, click here.

        Briefly -- First, when you bring a new customer to iFriends, you earn 100% of everything that customer spends with you. And when iFriends brings the customer to you, you earn 50% of all pay-per-view "private one-on-one" revenues generated from your videochat room, plus half of all revenues for your members-only, monthly FanClub membership. (It makes perfect business sense: You deliver the content by hosting your own live videochat room, and we deliver the customers! If you bring the customer, you get 100%. Note: New Special Exclusivity Incentives effective May 2006.) For tracking purposes, you use the ClickCash.com affiliate program to create hotlinks through which your new-customer referrals join iFriends, so that you can receive the 100% credit. Click here for more information) Checks are cut to you every week, in minimum amounts of $100. (If you earn less than that in a given week, the amount is carried over into the following week). Second, you earn an additional $100 for each new videochat host you recruit to the iFriends platform. (To qualify, the friend must be an active iFriends video chathost for at least six weeks). And third, you earn "overrides" on any live videochat revenue earned by chathosts you recruit. It can be a gigantic potential income source to you: You earn 1% on videochat revenues for hosts that that you recruit, and a 1% override on any friends that they recruit to become video chathosts, and so on, up to 16 different levels. (Do the math: If you recruit two friends, and they recruit two friends, and so on, you'll get a 1% override on the revenues of 65,536 different iFriends video chathosts!)

        Ready? Click here to join iFriends as a new video chathost. Just fill out a few quick web forms, fax/upload proof-of-age and related paperwork, and you can be hosting live iFriends videochat today!


      Where do I sign up?
        Right here. (Fill out a simple form, click "submit", download the free software, turn on your webcam, and you're LIVE, in just minutes!)

      Can I protect my Privacy?
        Yes! In addition to iFriends' Privacy Policy, which applies to all users of the iFriends platform, chathosts may also specify any number of "Chathost Block Zones" - zip codes, states or even entire countries that you can identify to prohibit users from accessing your videochat, seeing your archive images, or joining your own iFriends Fanclub and/or optional MyiFriends members-only site.

      Is it easy to configure my PC to do this?
        Is the pope catholic? Since you're reading this FAQ online, you already know how to get connected to the internet. That leaves just two things:(1) Plugging an inexpensive webcam, such as one of the Logitech QuickCams -- some are less than $100 -- into your PC, and (2) Downloading our free webcam software to run on your Windows PC (Win95, Win98, WinME, WinNT, WinXP, and Win2000 are all supported). And if even that proves too tough, our 24-hour-per-day friendly support team is on hand to lend *you* a hand (561-963-5842).

      Do I have to pay anything to get started?
        Nope. Not a dime. To begin participating as an iFriend on the Internet Friends Webcam Network, you don't have to pay anybody anything. All you need is a PC, internet connection, and webcam! (Oh, and at least one or more warm and friendly friends to put in front of the cam!)

      What types of conduct will get me in trouble with iFriends?
        There are three major no-no's that will get you booted off iFriends in a jiffy:
        1. Obscenity
          Click here to review the "Obscenity Disclaimer" in your VCH license agreement.
        2. Customer Theft
          If you make any attempt to contact an iFriends.net customer -- on or off iFriends -- to urge that customer to visit you or other chathosts outside of the iFriends platform, we will terminate your account immediately, no-questions-asked. (This includes "privates" arranged with IF customers and visitors that take place outside of iFriends.) iFriends spends millions of dollars to advertise and attract customers to the service. When those customers are redirected to other services, all iFriends chathosts suffer. For the protection of all iFriends chathosts, if you redirect even a single iFriends customer to other services -- even if unintentional -- we will close your account without hesitation and may prevent you from ever using the iFriends platform again.
        3. Customer Deception
          If you engage in practices which result in customers being overcharged (such as abandoning your post in front of the camera, while paying customers enter and then leave your chatroom), or customers being "tricked" to enter your videochat room (i.e., false or misleading advertising of your session description, or labeling a prerecorded tape as "live", etc.), we will close your account.
