General Questions
What makes theMixxx different?
theMixxx is reinventing the porn watching experience by providing you with a never-ending stream of content focused on your individual tastes and desires. You simply create a channel based on some search, and we provide you with the best content. But, unlike other sites, we don't just give you a list of videos that have a matching tag and leave it to you to spend hours searching for that perfect video. By the power of technology, we actually analyze the content of the video itself and fine-tune your channels to be exactly what turns you on.
You can learn more about how our system works on the How it Works page.
Do you have a referral program?
Yep! Check out our referral program page for more information about it.
How does the closed beta period work?
In order to limit load on our systems and ensure an excellent experience for everyone, we're launching our site in a closed private beta period. What this means is that you won't be able to use the site as a non-creator without an invitation code. Creators can still sign up without an invitation code, however you should ask your friends if they have an invitation code first as you both get a bonus for using one. See our referral program page for more information. Creators can earn non-creator invite codes to reward their patrons and drive more traffic and sales on their personal subscription sites by giving away free early access to our platform.
What's required to signup?
Not much! For non-creator users it's pretty much just an email address (and an invitation code during the private beta period). For creators, we are required to do a third-party identity verification process, however it only takes about 30 seconds and can be done from your phone with only a government issued ID.
User-specific Questions
How do I search for specific videos?
With our unique technology, the days of spending hours scrolling through videos trying to find that perfect one to finish to are over. Simply put in a search term and enjoy! If it's not exactly what you're looking for, up-voting and down-voting videos will quickly customize the stream to exactly what you're looking for.
Creator-specific Questions
How can I make money on theMixxx?
Anyone can upload their content to theMixxx and get paid as people watch it. We pay a per-minute rate that varies depending on the context in which the content is being watched. Exact rates are available on the Earnings & Referrals page for logged in creators.
Do I need to do anything before uploading my content?
Generally speaking, no. Our system uses industry standard video processing systems so any commonly used format should work. That being said, we internally test our system with MP4 videos using H.264 encoding. If you're encountering errors with your format, please contact us as we can probably support it but there's a lot of ways to save video, and it's impractical for us to test every one.
When do I get paid?
We pay out once per month to any creator that has earned over $100. Unpaid earnings carry over month-to-month until the threshold is met. See our terms of service for more details.
Will I earn money during the closed beta period?
Yes! Even though we won't have activated any of the monetization features (paid plans, advertising, etc.) of the site yet, we still believe it's only right to pay creators for their content. Therefore, you will be paid per watch minute that's watched during the private beta period. The only caveat to this is that all watcher users will be considered "promo users" so watch time will be paid at the lowest rate. You can see more details on your Earnings page.
What content is not allowed?
See our terms of service for full details on this topic, but generally speaking we try to be liberal with what is allowed and if you have it posted somewhere else, we'll probably allow it too. We don't kink shame here. However, the same cannot be said for governments and risk-adverse financial companies so in order to stay in compliance with their regulations and other legal requirements there are some types of content that are not allowed or require additional supporting documentation to be posted. If you have questions about your specific content please see section 3 of our terms of service or contact us.
How do I tag other creators in my content?
You can do this from the Edit Video page that you're taken to after uploading a video. This page is also accessible from the "Your Content" page. On the Edit Video page, there's a place for you to enter the usernames of the other creators that appear in your content. Please be sure you've gotten their consent to upload the content before production and before uploading it; failing to do this is a violation of our terms of service. After you tag the other creator(s) we will reach out to them to confirm their consent independently.
