Q&A for How to Become a Phone Sex Operator

You can sign up for Niteflirt or Talktome.com those are the most well known and have the best reputations.

Total Lip Service taught me how to work on a site called NiteFlirt. It is a site for phone sex pros but TLS has a training course that I took which taught me all the ins and outs about fetishes and making the call last longer. NiteFlirt lets you set your own rate, so I charge 1.99 a minute now.

It starts out low, because you have to pay more to market yourself, e.g., .25/minute. But keep in mind, just because you're available doesn't mean that you are talking, so if you're trying to figure out what you make in an hour, you could really only be working for a fraction of a penny per minute.

Yes, there are plenty of websites where you can sign up just to do online messaging.

I work for two sites, one called Niteflirt, another called Talktome. I paid no fee to either but I did have to supply a credit card to prove that I was 18.

It depends on what you put into it: time, availability, taboos, how many regulars you have, etc.

The people hiring you will probably tell you that they like your voice, or that it's sexy.

That really depends on your partner and how they cope with this job. If he/she is the jealous type, you probably will have issues. However, this can be alleviated by sitting down and talking things through before accepting the job. Discuss why you want to do it, what finances it will bring into the household, where you will do it and what boundaries are in place. Most of all, be clear that it is a job and not a personal thing.

Depending on your employer, you could be approved and working within one to three days.

Yes, it is legal. Anything on the phone is considered a fantasy line. Anything said on the call is all fantasy.

Yes. As long as you are working in the US for a US company, it is covered as a fantasy call.

The company forwards calls to you or pays for a service that forwards calls to you. The customer dials the 800 number, and it gets forwarded to your phone.

Talktome and Niteflirt are hands down the WORST companies you can work for. You basically pay them to let you put up your own stuff. They do not advertise you past the first 30 days putting new people on the new banner. Then you get moved to page 537 or something like that. You can not advertise yourself or do anything to help yourself make more money. To start your own business you need a way to ring up customers without them being able to show up at your door to visit you. It is a safety issue. Terminals charge 50K to open an account. Venmo, cash app and all those pay sites, if the customer disputes a charge they get your information. Not safe at all. Plus you won't make enough money.

Yes, but while some companies might not hire you, others will. Only men call phone sex companies, so you'd need to pretend to be a woman to get the men interested in "chatting."

Some companies offer training when you go to work for them. It takes research to find good companies willing to train.

sexyjobs will give you a list of all the companies and the hiring pages for those companies.

There is only 1 hiring board for sex work. The laws make it so there can be no advertisement on job boards. Don't get me started on that. I am a hiring manager for a phone sex company. It is super important to do your research. There are a lot of fake companies. Make sure you know the STATE the company is located in. It is the only way you can file a complaint if needed. Sexyjobs is the only hiring site for most of the companies. I mean we all have out on sites to apply. Sexyjobs is the only site we can advertise on. You can read about all the big companies and pick who is best for you.

There is no average hourly rate. You get paid by the minute. There is no set pay rate or minimum. Some companies pay as little as 13 cents a minute. Some pay up to a dollar a minute. You also have to look for loopholes like hold times. They average all your calls together and if you don't make enough long calls, they drop your pay rate lower. So they may advertise 50 cents a minute. But after averaging all your hang ups and time wasted, you make 15 cents a minute.

Phone sex is nothing like your boyfriends. Most companies are "no taboo," meaning you talk about everything. Sex with animals, children, forced, group, all kinds of things. The only positive way to think about it is: these customers don't want to go out and hurt kids or animals. They need a safe way to work through there messed up fantasies (most of which probably happen because they were abused when younger). Being a phone sex operator can be a fantastic job. But it is a job. And the content can be very difficult.

Sexyjobs.com is a hiring board where contractors can leave reviews of companies. You can also apply there for adult work including phone sex. There are a lot of scams out there, so you really have to be careful.

You can work from anywhere in the world and you don't just have to be US based.

Some older companies prefer you have a landline, but sometimes you can use a VoIP instead, many allow cellphones also.

Possibly, but it might take a little longer for them to hire you (due to background checking).
