Three million monthly visitors and more than 22,000 creators speak for themselves: 4based has been positioning itself as a fansite with its own concept for a good three years. With a structure based on Instagram, creators can offer their content in an environment in which everyone can quickly find their way around. There are many differences to other platforms. Creators can present themselves to all visitors in a public stream even without their own traffic and thus effectively gain fans. An algorithm determines who can be found how often in the stream under the ‘Discover’ menu item. Numerous factors play a role here. The decisive factor is above all your own activity, i.e. the frequency of posts or reels, interaction with users, but possibly also your own traffic from outside directly to your own profile.

Creativity is a top priority
At the same time, creators have numerous opportunities to attract attention with short video clips in reels, for example. 4based ensures that only ‘soft’ content can be viewed before the recognised age verification. In addition, 4based is by no means a pure ‘porn portal’; many creators also operate their profiles there without explicit eroticism.
Various payment options
Another plus point: customers without a credit card can also shop here. This is ensured by payment options such as Paypal, Paysafecard, Apple/Google Pay, Sofort online transfer and many more. There are also the usual credit cards. This distinguishes 4based from other fan portals where, for example, payment is only possible by credit card. This is because the majority of potential customers from Germany who do not have a credit card are already excluded.
Every Creator an Affiliate
Another highlight is the sophisticated affiliate system. This automatically benefits every creator who brings visitors directly to their 4based profile. At the same time, pure affiliates can also effectively convert their traffic. Participation is particularly easy for creators and, above all, without any parameters in the link that are often annoying or ‘suspicious’ for users. A simple link to their own profile is all that is needed. The system recognises who registers via this link and automatically credits the corresponding creator with the affiliate commission that is generated if the new user also makes sales with other creators. The creator and affiliate commissions are added together for sales on your own profile.
The 4based interface is tidy and modelled on Instagram. Influencers, creators and users can find their way around immediately. For example, a creator can easily specify whether the subscription is subject to a fee, how much messages should cost or in which language the interface should be operated.
Another important marketing tool for creators at 4based is the voucher system. This makes it easy to generate a voucher code that can be redeemed within a certain date range and offers discounts in per cent or fixed amounts. The discount codes can be used in a variety of ways: for example, they can be printed on autograph cards, posted on social media profiles or distributed in newsletters or other communications.i
Partner deal for cooperations
There are also opportunities for creators to give a share of their own payout to another creator. For example, mutual applications or shoutouts can be offset. The partner deals are concluded for an adjustable period of time, for which they are then binding.
Enormous range of functions
Despite the clear interface, 4based offers a wide range of options. One example is the so-called ‘Postback URL’, which offers extensive statistical analysis options. A complete overview would go beyond the scope of this article. For this reason, CASZIN will shortly be going into more detail about the functions of 4based in another article.
