Exercise more, drink way more water (and lay off the sauce a little), save some money, get organized, finally start meditating…
If you are anything like us, those resolutions lasted about 3 days… but for those of you still on top of your 2023 goals - keep it up!
Site Updates
Mass Messaging
Our mass messaging improvements are set to go live on February 6, and it’s kind of a big deal. These changes were made possible as a result of moving away from SMS. 🙌
Send your mass messages and check out past message statistics like unlocks and read rate from the new Mass Messages category in the model dashboard menu.
Mass messages are still limited to once every 8 hours, but you are now able to send to your entire contact list - previously Mass Messages were limited to 100-200 recipients due to SMS carrier limitations.
Contacts that didn’t reply to or unlock 7 consecutive mass messages were marked as inactive. These ‘inactive’ contacts will now receive each and every mass message you send as long as you are on their contact list.
Here are some tips to get the most out of your mass messages and unlockable content:
Create custom contact lists so you can curate content to specific fetishes or those that frequently unlock content.
Looking to convert newer users? Try sending a ‘Free’ unlockable picture or teaser video. This is a great way to spark a conversation, keep them engaged, and get them used to unlocking your content.
Price accordingly! It’s always better to have 75 unlocks at $2 than 5 unlocks at $10.
Single pictures or short videos are unlocked more frequently when they are priced between $1 - $2.
Photo collections or full videos that you might have previously teased are enticing when priced between $5 - $10+. Generally speaking, the longer the video, the higher the price you can command.
Try to have consistent pricing across platforms, and content posted to your social media should also be free on SextPanther.
Have a user that can’t resist unlocking your stuff? Offer some more premium content or customs!
More Control Over Your Availability Status
We’re moving from two availability status options to three, and you’ll be able to toggle among them more easily on the browser in the top left corner under your profile picture (the toggle on the app is staying in the top right corner).
Available
receiving messages or calls
profile shown as Online Now on the landing page
Unavailable (same as Away Mode)
not receiving messages or calls
contact receives automated response and won’t be charged if they message you
Offline (think of this as being active but invisible)
receiving messages and calls
profile not shown as Online Now on the landing page
consider using this status when you want some quieter time to upload new content, update your profile, organize your feed, or interact with a select few contacts
Leaving
Las Vegas
We had a great time at AVN 2023. Huge shoutout to all models that signed for fans and represented SextPanther—you all know how to draw a crowd!
They say, “what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas,” but nobody said we couldn’t share this short highlight reel 😛

It Was Fun, Snap Camera 👋
If you’ve used Snap Camera on your desktop browser, you may know that it’s no longer available as of January 25, 2023 😱 If you’ve already installed it, it may continue to work for now, but be prepared for a sudden end. If and when you need to, remember to change your camera source away from Snap Camera to your external webcam or your built-in cam and restart your browser and computer before taking video calls. Consider improving your lighting setup and possibly upgrading your camera, but above all, remember that you are a kween 👑 #nofilter.
