We’re on a quest to further enhance the social-media aspect of xFans by integrating the necessary features. This is so that your site becomes a true adult social media platform where a thriving community of fans and models can operate. These clubbed with a plethora of other niceties is what you can expect very soon. If that piques your interest, read on to find more on this.
Live Streaming UX - We are closely working on enhancing the Live stream pages to make sure your users would have the best User experience.
Free trial-based subscription model: A free trial for subscriptions works wonders in bringing in the users who were on the fence. It gives them a glimpse of what is in store and is a great goodwill gesture to induce loyalty. Models will be able to opt to offer a free trial subscription to their fans. After the trial period, the subscription will automatically get converted into a paid one and auto-debits would be made for renewal at the end of set subscription periods.
Live stream and chat: Here’s a big whopper of a feature you’re going to love - Live streaming! Models can soon jump into a live stream with their fans. Users are going to eat this up being able to connect with their favorite stars. This will be a one-way video stream where users can communicate with the help of messages on the chat window integrated alongside the stream. Tipping, setting goals, peek-ins for non-subscribers, private calls, it’ll have them all. Being able to connect with the models on an up, close, and personal level will get users flocking to your site.
Wallet: Statistics proclaim that faster and high-success rates are key in increasing transactions on the site considerably. This is where the integrated wallet comes in. Users will be able to top-up their wallets and use its balance to transact on the site, from product purchases, PPV videos, tipping on live streams, buying price-locked media in the feed, and also one-time or recurring model subscriptions. This is going to be a game changer and you will soon be able to leverage this to boost transactions on the site.
Social feed: Sites built on xFans can soon become a destination where users come to not just consume content, but also to follow their favorite models and see what’s up in their lives. It will cater to provide a complete adult social media experience. This will be achieved using a social feed smack on the homepage, where users will be able to see posts from all models, including the ones they’re subscribed to. Models can share media that’s free-to-view or could be price-locked too and users can use their wallet balance to unlock them. Out of all the changes you’ll experience, like livestreams, private request, account wallet, this is the biggest in the road to making xFans a truly fan connect platform.
Story: To give a 360 degree of adult social media platform experience, on top of the social feed feature (both literally and figuratively) there will be a story area integrated, where video stories posted by all models will be projected. These will auto-expire in 24 hours and users can check out stories from their favorite stars and also discover new ones. Unlike the posts in the feed, stories can be viewed by non-subscribers as well.
Tipping: Apart from tipping during live streams, users will also be able to tip their favorite models from the social feed page as well as from within the model profiles.
Changing roles - Users to Models: Users who wish to join the platform as a model will be able to do so by submitting their ID for verification and once the same is approved by the admin.
Earning report - Worried on accounting ? Hope this feature would help to do so by providing an option to download Earnings Report in CSV and PDF Formats.
Welcome email: New subscribers will receive a personalized email from their creators.
Starred Models - We are working on to starring models from user account so that they never miss out contents of their profile.
Back button in all media content pages: When inside any content page of a model (videos, galleries, or products), to go back to the model profile users either need to use the browser’s back button or have to resort to going all the way back to the homepage and then find the model again. In the next release, there will be on-screen navigation buttons added in all the content pages so users can get to where they want easily.
Subscription shortcuts in the chat room: When a user is in the chat history of a model, but the subscription to that model has either expired or not renewed, they can now see subscription shortcuts in the chat box itself.
Setting sequence to the photos in gallery: Currently, photos under a gallery appear to the user in the order they were uploaded. And the only way to set a sequence to these photos is by uploading them one by one, or by renaming them alphabetically in the preferred order and then uploading in bulk. We want to give you the flexibility of being able to assign a sequence anytime from the list of photos under a gallery. Both models and the admin can set order numbering so photos show up in a desired sequence.
Personalized text for subscription benefits: In the upcoming release, models will be able to modify the subscription benefits text that the users see when subscribing to them. Admin too will have access to set default content for the subscription benefits page as well as for individual models.
FTP uploads: Tired of looking at the progress bar waiting for videos to upload? Well, not for long! You will soon be empowered with the convenience of an FTP upload. Load videos on the model profiles like it’s nobody’s business. Note, that FTP upload will be made available only on the admin end and not for the models.
Custom content in the Contact page: On the front end contact page, you will be able to add text content to show up alongside the contact form. As the site admin, you can use this to share your email with the users, or set TATs for enquiries through the contact form, or just to set other expectations with the usersVideo Formats - Application should support WebM video format.
Model privacy changes: Instead of showing a “blocked” model tile in the countries a model has chosen to hide her profile in, the model tile will be hidden instead in those countries to further secure the model’s privacy.
Search bar on the email templates page: On the email templates page in the admin panel, you will be soon able to find the template in question sooner using the search bar being integrated.
Restrict model access to other model content: Models can still view but won’t be able to purchase or enter the content page of other models. They will still be able to check out thumbnails of videos, galleries and products, but cannot move beyond it.
Prevent models from subscribing to other models: The subscription buttons will be hidden from a model’s view when visiting other models, which in effect means the platform models will be unable to subscribe to other models.Keeping privileges of a cancelled user subscription active until expiry: When a user cancels his/her subscription to a model, the benefits and access to the applicable content will remain active until the end of subscription expiry. Please note, that this will not apply to subscriptions created by the admin on the backend, but only to user-bought subscriptions.
Wishlist - Let your Users gift what model desires
Real-time chat notifications: In the chat room, the notification dot and the last message preview under usernames will update in real-time instead of updating only when entering or refreshing the chat room.
