LOS ANGELES — ASACP has named CAM4, AgeChecked, and Cosmo Payment as its featured sponsors for November.
ASACP's Executive Director Tim Henning said its sponsors rank among the industry’s most respected companies and exemplify corporate responsibility and ethical business practices. He noted that simple technical measures can help protect minors and other sensitive users from accidental exposure to age-restricted materials online.
"Our sponsors' continuing commitment helps safeguard the innocence of youth," explained Henning. "Together, we are creating a brighter future for children on the internet."
These are the ASACP descriptions of its November featured sponsors:
CAM4
As a longstanding Title Sponsor and Advisory Council Member of ASACP since 2012, CAM4.com is committed to robust online child protection. Its vigilance in safeguarding minors extends across its live webcam functionalities and online content, ensuring that underage individuals cannot access these platforms or misrepresent their age to become paid creators.
CAM4’s global scope requires rigorous documentation standards across jurisdictions, clear separation between the company and content creators, and verification that all participants and viewers are of legal age. Recognizing its online platforms’ unique challenges, CAM4 follows ASACP’s stringent guidelines and best practices designed for live cam site operators.
CAM4 integrates these measures proactively, reinforcing a comprehensive approach to child safety.
Additional safeguards, such as RTA labeling and warning-page alerts, further block minors from accessing the site, underscoring CAM4’s commitment to a safe, compliant environment.
“Our message to users is clear: CAM4 prohibits and actively reports any CSAM activity to authorities, with full cooperation in prosecution,” said a company rep. “This zero-tolerance stance reaffirms our dedication to protecting minors and upholding the highest digital safety and responsibility standards.”
AgeChecked
An ASACP Corporate Sponsor since 2017, AgeChecked has supported clients with age verification since 2014, providing age verification, authentication, and screening services built specifically for adult content platforms. The service helps platforms confirm a user’s age quickly and securely, in line with the regulations in each market they serve.
AgeChecked’s verification is privacy-first, so personal data is not exposed to or retained by the platform. A single integration gives access to verification methods across multiple jurisdictions, and the user journey is designed to keep friction to a minimum and protect conversion rates.
The team works behind the scenes with clients’ payment processors, developers, and management to streamline onboarding. It also advises on the practical questions platforms face, such as how verification affects rebills for recurring customers and how to roll it out across a large network of sites.
AgeChecked is an active participant in AgeAware, a three-year EU and UN-funded initiative led by euCONSENT to build a privacy-preserving, “integrate once, use everywhere” age assurance network, with engagement from the EU, ITU and ISO.
AgeChecked offers free consultations in any time zone. For more information, contact sales@agechecked.com.
Cosmo Payment
With a tagline of “the industry’s best way to pay and get paid,” Cosmo Payment offers payout solutions designed to help online businesses send funds to a global network of companies and creators.
An ASACP Corporate Sponsor since 2025, Cosmo Payment offers corporate payout tools, including recipient-focused debit cards available in virtual and physical formats, that let cardholders access funds for online shopping, point-of-sale purchases, or ATM withdrawals. For program managers, Cosmo Payment offers batch and API-based mass payments with multi-currency support, local bank transfers, and crypto payouts, along with customized onboarding processes tailored for distributed teams.
Cosmo Payment collaborates with issuing and processing partners within relevant regulatory frameworks and prioritizes adherence to standard compliance practices, including KYC/AML screening and data security measures. For recipients, a card-focused approach can reduce the time from payment approval to funds being available compared to traditional cross-border transfers. For payers, centralized dashboards and automated tools enable large-scale, recurring payouts, customizable controls, and reporting tools, among other benefits.
Popular use cases include marketplaces, affiliate programs, creator platforms, and other high-volume disbursement models operating internationally. Cosmo Payment’s value proposition focuses on operational conveniences, including fast access to funds, global acceptance by card networks, and consistent workflows for recurring payouts.
“An essential and long-overdue development, Cosmo Payment is proud to not only support ASACP in its ongoing efforts dedicated to online child protection, but also the industries that require the tools and support to ensure child protection throughout,” said Cosmo Payment CEO Anthony Nocella. “Together, we are building stronger, safer, and more responsible frameworks for the entire community.”
"ASACP’s sponsors are vital for fostering a safer environment for consenting adults while protecting society’s most vulnerable from online harms," Henning concluded. "We appreciate our sponsors' contribution to establishing industry standards and safeguarding children online. By working together, we’re building a better world."
