Across from Mindgeek, the MastersinCash team
actually brought a regulation foosball table to the
Meet Market, making them one of the popular stops
on the circuit.
But it wasn’t all fun and games at the busiest
networking event in Europe.
Steve Winyard was there as the co-founder and
chief marketing officer of AVSecure, which provides
a world-class age verification solution, one of the
most pressing issues in the webmaster community.
Winyard’s London-based company focuses on
consumer anonymity, allowing merchants to comply
with the Digital Economy Act and the new U.K. age
verification law.
“It’s critical,” Winyard said. “It’s not something
you can get around. The law is there. The regulator
is coming [to the seminar] as well—he’ll be in
the audience. If a company is not compliant with
the U.K. law, MasterCard will shut off their global
processor, not just U.K.”
The day wasn’t without its fashion statements,
whether it was the bright red suits of the Kinkoid
executives or the blue DatingFactory blazer worn by
Niklas Fagerstrom, an affiliate manager who made
the trip from Malta.
“It’s nice, I really enjoy it,” the Swedish-born
Fagerstrom said as he surveyed the wall-to-wall
crowd. “I’m trying to find new partners. I have to ask
everyone.”
On the other side of Eastwood, 11-year industry
veteran Yuval Kijel, who manages Streamate’s white-
label solution, Cambuilder, discussed Streamate’s
Black Label product, which has been performing well
on Pornhub.
“It’s our major new thing,” Kijel explained. “We’ve
been working on it for a year and a half. It’s been
running on Pornhub for a good part of the year
already. And it’s on other sites, like Fuckbook. But
we are really starting to push it now strong.
“Basically what it is it’s a much different
integration of webcams. We offer a site owner to
operate a cam site within his site. He doesn’t need
to send traffic anywhere. Everything happens within
his site. We think it’s the next level of webcam
integration.”
Speaking of making strides, Jim Austin, the head
of business of development for the Cyprus-based
Stripchat, told AVN his live-cam site is enjoying a
steady surge thanks to its sustained push in North
America.
Stripchat now features top-performing U.S.
models in full-page print ads in AVN magazine.
“We’re kind of offering that as a reward for our
models that are really paying attention,” Austin said.
Stripchat, which relaunched in May 2016, is the
live-cam brand in the xHamster group, one of the
largest adult online communities in the world.
The company also sponsored the WMA Seminar
Program: a dozen panels deep, including five
different international-themed sessions.
Andrea Fioriniello, business development
manager for AdultCentro, returned to the capital
of Holland all the way from his home in Lancaster,
Pennsylvania, to promote FanCentro and MCProfits.
WELCOME TO AMSTERDAM Opposite page, the Welcome Party,

September 8-11. Attendees networked and attended the seminars, sponsored
by Stripchat. Photos by JFK/FUBARWebmasters.com.
