A guide to slave ownership on Slave Market

1. Discuss and Establish the Contract
Ownership on Slave Market is more than just a label on a profile, it represents a real commitment and the surrender of control and permissions to a higher power: YOU, the owner.
Before diving headfirst into ownership, take the time to discuss kinks, limits, and availability with your aspiring slave. Do they have a job? A family? All those little real-life distractions that might interfere and need to be accounted for :)
Once you've had the all-important discussion, it's time to draft the contract. Lucky for you, we've made this as painless as possible with a default template. Simply visit the slave's profile, click "Request Ownership", and a modal will open. From there, you have two options:
- The quick setup: just pick an end date for the ownership and call it a day.
- The full Ownership Contract, which we highly recommend for a more official, dare we say, mystical touch. (Click the button labeled "Ownership Contract (optional)" to go all-in.)

Now, while the default template is a solid starting point, customization is key. No two ownerships are alike, so be sure to tailor it to fit your agreement and your slave's particular... quirks.
- Duration: What's the deal? A weekend of fun? A month of training? Or an “until death do us part” situation?
- Clauses: Use our suggestions, tweak them, or get creative. You're the one in charge here.
- Templates: If you've crafted the perfect contract, save it for future use.
- Signing: A digital signature that seals the deal on your side.
Once you've signed and sent the contract, your slave will receive a notification, allowing them to review the details before signing and making things official.
2. Daily Truth Talk
Building a true connection with your slaves is often what makes the experience very rewarding on both sides. If possible, establish a daily or periodic time for communication. Use this time to build trust and strengthen your connection. Make sure your slave knows this is a safe space, where anything they share will remain between you. But in return, you expect them to always answer your questions with complete honesty, no matter how embarrassing! In fact, slipping in a few embarrassing questions can be a fun way to emphasize your control and reinforce their submission.
While you may choose to share some personal information on your side to reinforce the bond, don't let the conversation turn into an interview about you. Stay in control. You are the one asking the questions, and you are never obligated to answer theirs. This time should also serve as a tool to reinforce the power dynamic.
3. Rules & Protocols: A Little Bit of Discipline
You have granted your slave the privilege of entering your King(Queen)dom, and it's always a good idea to enforce at least a few meaningful rules:
- Make sure your slaves always address you with your chosen title (Mistress, Goddess, etc.) and respond with proper manners, such as "Yes, Mistress." If they don't, make them regret it!
- Don't let conversations drift in an undesirable direction. You decide where things go, and you don't have to answer their questions.
- Don't let them negotiate everything. If they try to bargain too much (or at all), make sure they learn their lesson.
- Don't let them contradict you too easily. Whether you are right or wrong, you are right. Let them know it playfully :)
- Require your handwritten username on all media they send you.
- A morning greeting when they wake up and a goodnight message before bed seems like a reasonable expectation, doesn't it?

4. Rewards and Punishments
Shape your slave into what you want it to be, or at least make it feel like that!
Reward good behavior and punish bad or disappointing ones... Make the rules clear and enforce them strictly. More often than not, your slaves will respect you and enjoy serving you even more if they know you are paying proper attention to whether they follow the rules.
Some examples of rewards:
- A simple praise
- Granting an orgasm
- Giving a task you know your slave will enjoy
- An exclusive picture or video of yourself which they should treasure immensely
- Giving a bit of your time
- Giving your slave a one night permission to interract with other Doms
- A nice comment in its public slave's file
Some examples of punishments:
- Orgasm denial
- A ruined orgasm
- A financial penalty
- Make them start a Chastity Challenge
- Make them edge one or several time and deny them orgasm
- Make them post a humiliating picture on the Public Square
- Make them open their cum or chastity log for other Doms to see if it is not already the case
- CEI
- Make them do a Surrender of your desired level
- Assign them a task they dislike
- Ignoring them for a certain period of time (though too long is not recommended, as it could break the dynamic)
- A humiliating comment in its public slave's file
5. Orgasm Restrictions
Your slave's little worm belongs to you now, and what's the best way to keep a slave docile and obedient? Control its orgasms!
Giving up the right to orgasm whenever it wishes is the truest act of submission. Some Dominants don't realize just how powerful this control is. Slaves have vastly different libidos and sexual needs. Some are fine with no release or just one every couple of days, while others require several releases a day for their mental well-being. Everyone is different.
Think of it like giving up the right to eat whenever you want. It's a big deal. Sure, you can postpone eating when you're hungry, but soon enough, it's all you'll be able to think about, and you'll be willing to do anything for a meal. Orgasms work the same way. It's an incredibly powerful tool for dominance.
And you can make it even worse/better by making your slave "hungry" on purpose! Picture someone who hasn't eaten in a week, and you make them run in circles around a bakery from which mouth-watering scents escape, forbidden from stopping and eating anything until you decide they've earned it. That's the kind of craving you can create! If you think this is exaggerating, think again :)
Here are some ideas to consider:
- No orgasm without permission: A simple but effective rule. If your slave wants to cum, they must ask for permission. Grant it if they've been a good boy/girl, or make them do something for you first, or simply tell them to ask again in 30 minutes. Show them who's in charge.
- Orgasms must be recorded: Allow them to release whenever they want, as long as they record it in their cum log. This ensures they have no privacy from you, and they must thank you after each orgasm in their uploaded cum log videos. Bonus? You earn fame along the way.
- Chastity cage monitoring: If your slave has a chastity cage, make them wear it with a tamper seal and record their chastity logs. This ensures they aren't being naughty behind your back, and also earns you some fame along the way.
- When to grant an orgasm? You decide. Here are some fun ideas:
- Every time they earn you a certain amount of fame.
- If you like team spirit, set a rule where all your slaves get a release whenever your fame increases by 1,000.
- When your slave posts a picture in the Public Square that reaches at least 100 likes.
- Whenever your slave completes three Surrenders of at least level 3.
- For every 50 worships.
- A daily dice roll with a 1/6 chance, with the option to pay for additional rolls.
- Only allow a release time span of 20 minutes, when you know they're at work or at a family gathering.
- Introduce a cum tax, making each orgasm more expensive than the last.
- Only allow sissygasm
- Only allow anal orgasm
- Come up with your own creative ideas and surprise your slave!
Prolactin is also sometimes called the "hormone of regret", because once it kicks in, men may suddenly regret what they just did, realizing they were acting purely out of intense horniness before the release... something to keep in mind :)
6. Worshipping
For your slaves to truly feel owned, you want to be constantly on their mind. One of the ways to ensure that, and boost your fame at the same time, is to require your slave to worship you as often as possible.
On Slave Market, slaves can worship a Dom of their choice only once per hour, and this limit cannot be increased. So make sure you’re the one receiving their devotion. Yes, it’s just the push of a button, but that button ensures that every hour of the day, your slave will be thinking of you and performing a small act of devotion in your honor!

7. Skills/Surrender Suggestions
How about a little bit of homework to keep your slave in an aroused state?
This is usually a task that subs enjoy, and it also gives you a peek into their naughty little minds, what fantasies they secretly hope you'll make them act on.
Have them write daily or weekly suggestions for "Skills" or "Surrender Now!" tasks that you can submit on the website yourself to be the one reaping the rewards.

8. Sessions
Once you own a slave, you'll likely want to keep it engaged with daily or periodic tasks. To do this, you can open a new session where you'll be able to send assignments and require proof of completion.
If you assign a daily task, you can be sure that every day, your slave will be dying with anticipation and excitement, eagerly waiting to find out what its next task will be!
However there is nothing more frustrating for a slave than being assigned a task that was given without any thought behind it. You may have a list of tasks you like to assign, but don't forget to personalize them to match your slave's kinks and available toys, this will go a long way in keeping them eager and grateful!
Also it's usually a good idea to set a time constraint for the task, and ensure your slave receives a proper punishment if they fail to complete their task on time. Be lenient on their first mistake, instructions can be confusing sometimes, but don't be on the second one. :)
One more thing, consider using the session reward system to give your slave extra motivation to complete tasks or to pay your apology prices.
9. Permissions on Slave Market & Dynamics with Other Doms
When you own a slave, you usually want to keep it for yourself and not share it with other Doms. On Slave Market, you can set permissions to prevent your slave from engaging with others, reinforcing its sense of ownership and further asserting your control.
Once you trust your slave, if you are too busy to dedicate much time to it, running out of ideas, or simply want to offer a reward, you may consider easing restrictions and allowing it to have sessions with other Doms. However, don't let your slave choose freely. It may suggest a Dom for your approval, but you make the final choice or pick it up Yourself. You set the terms, agree on any shared compensation if needed, and ensure your slave understands that it remains under your ownership. This should be seen as a privilege, not a right.
Interactions with other Doms can be fun and rewarding for both the Dom and the sub, creating new dynamics in the relationship. It also fosters broader cooperation between Doms, benefiting everyone involved.

10. Changes to Slave Profile
Doms who have reached at least the Cane rank gain the powerful ability to modify their slaves' profile information, including:
- Profile picture
- Profile description
- Username
This is a strong display of power and reinforces the feeling of being at the mercy of a higher power. Here are some ideas:
- Apply your branding to your slaves' profile pictures by making them wear a specific, distinctive item that marks them as yours, or overlaying a text/logo such as "Slave of Mistress XXX."
- Require your slave to provide a humiliating (but non-nude) picture of your choice, and keep it as leverage, letting them know you might set it as their profile picture if they misbehave.
- Update their username to expose a shameful kink, such as "AnalWhore" or "SissyBitch."
- Modify their username to better match your vision for them or to include a prefix referring to you. (Example: If you are Mistress Tagada, you could rename them "TgdXXX," requiring them to always refer to themselves as such.)
- Rewrite their profile description entirely, adding your own custom touch or exposing their preferences as a form of punishment.
- Have fun with creative punishments. For example, you could temporarily add the following text to the bottom of their profile description: "To honor my Mistress's wishes, I will send a $1 gift along with a video of myself hitting my balls while thanking You (using your username) for all the Mistresses visiting my profile and sending Me a message with the content: "Hi Loser, hit your balls and send Me a gift!". Make it also send you all the videos along with a $1 gift!

11. Other Ideas
A few more ideas to reinforce your ownership power:
- Each time they lose 1kg.
- Each time they provide proof of a workout session.
- For each full day in chastity.
- For each day they reach 18 worships.
- ...
Make sure you are always on your slave's mind. Be fair but firm, enforce strict discipline, surprise them with new ideas, and keep them busy with arousing tasks and the hope of rewards. This way, you will become their everything, the light of their every day, and you can be sure they will do everything they can to please you. That's when you know you truly own them. :)
