Last year, explicit megasite Pornhub deleted all unverified videos, shocking sex workers and the internet at large. The decision came shortly after a New York Times opinion piece about the proliferation of child porn on the site.
While that article proved controversial given its sourcing of an anti-sex work conservative group, Pornhub still maintains that all accounts on the site need to be verified in order to upload videos (though you don't need to be verified to post comments).
"Pornhub has implemented safety and security measures that set the standard for compliance programs in the tech and social media industries," Pornhub told Mashable in an emailed statement.
"As we sought to create the absolute safest platform on the internet, uploader verification was a key policy in combating unwanted content and ensuring we remain at the forefront of safety in not just the adult content industry, but on the internet as a whole."
How does one get verified on Pornhub? To do so, you must apply to Pornhub's Model Program, which gives performers a percentage of ad revenue and offers additional paths to monetization, such as tips. Here's how:
Create an account
The first step is a no-brainer: Create a free Pornhub account. You only need an email address, username, and password. Once you verify your email via a link sent to the address, you're good to go.
How to get verified
On desktop, you can use Chrome, Safari, Firefox, or Edge for this step; on mobile, you can only use Chrome or Safari. To get verified on Pornhub, you must take a photo of your ID and perform a live face scan.
The ID verification goes through a service called Yoti, which Pornhub calls "the leading digital identity verification solution."
On Yoti, select your country and click "Add Photo." Next, select what type of ID (the choices will vary depending on your location) you're using, such as driver's license or state ID. With the exception of a passport, for which you'll upload the photo page, you'll need photos of the front and back of your ID. Yoti may reject the photos if they're too blurry, but you can always retake them as needed.
After that, Yoti performs a live face scan. Make sure your camera is at eye level and your room has good lighting. Once you consent to the scan, select "I'm Ready" and follow the prompts. The scan will fail if you don't move enough to confirm to the system that you're a live human being.
Pornhub's model application
Once you've uploaded your ID photos and completed the scan, you can submit your model application on Pornhub's site. The form will ask you for your name, address, preferred method of payment, and whether you'll perform other services, like creating custom videos.
You have two weeks to complete this process once you start the application or else it expires, but it should only take you a few minutes. Applications are reviewed within 48 hours, and you'll receive either an approval or a notice that your application requires further attention.
That's it! Go forth and get verified.
