Freemium live sex sites

Freemium refers to the webcam site’s business model. On freemium live cam sites, you do not have to pay a dime to watch valuable content (like nudity, and other actions). Sometimes you do not need to register either to the website at all, but if you wish to interact with the models, ofc you have to make an account and purchase some tokens. Such sites for example Chaturbate (review here) or MFC.

Free chat

Free chat means, you can chat and interact with the models in the model’s room as a guest, or non-paying member for free. The drawback is that you won’t be easily recognizable by the model since sometimes there are dozens of visitors who write to the wall at the same time. On a few cam sites, there is a time limit before they force you to register.
Therefore always a smart idea to register at least a free account if the given websites allow it.
For example on livejas, you can register such an account for free.
Keep in mind, on paying websites you will not see any nude content on free chat. On freemium websites you can see actions in “free chat” as a guest too.

Gold

It is a currency used mostly on Streamate and its white-label sites. As a registered member, you can purchase Gold on the website, which you can use for different things like tipping the model, buy extras, or purchase tickets to Gold Shows.1 Gold means 1 unit of your currency. Ex : 1 gold = 1USD

Gold Show

Typically this type of group chat exists on Streamate and its whitelabels. The model can set the length of her/his show and a minimum buy-in price/user.

What is the gold show on Streamate

The model has to reach her/his goal before the countdown ends. If the timer ends, the model can decide if she/he starts or cancel the show, depend on that if she/he reached the goal of money.
If she declines the show, you will get your money back.

The same type of group chat exists on Livejasmin as well, it is called the VIP show.

Group Chat

Live cam group chat means that when more than one paying member participating in a paying show. Usually, these sex shows are much cheaper than the regular private shows (Private Chat)since more people pay for the same thing. Group chat has different names on different cam sites.

If you visit one of the thousand sex cam sites, you can interact with these models via chat or, and you can ask them to use certain remote controlled sex toys and more.
Sexcam models get paid via tips (which can be under different names such: gold, token, credit) when users bring them into private sex shows.

The Pink Toy

You can see many live cam models who use a pink toy that reacts to the tip’s sound. The bigger tip, the bigger sound, and the bigger buzz. This tool called OhMiBod, the toy’s manufacturer is lovense.

• Ohmibod torture = when a group of members tipping the chosen model simultaneously that, very fast and insistently. This can cause :
• Ohmibod squirt = “Female ejaculation refers to the expulsion of fluid from a female’s urethra during orgasm or sexual arousal”

Webcam Studios

Some of the models work because they enjoy it, but most of them take it as a normal job.
They are professional therefore this job needs a lot of effort, intrepidity, and equipment as well. They can choose to work from home, using their own computer and environment, or they can work from a studio.
Both have their advantages and disadvantages.

Cam studios allow models to rent professionally furnished small rooms outside of their homes. These businesses can supply models with pro cameras, video equipment, high-end Internet, professional lighting, and other services like hairdressers, makeup artists, masseurs, language teachers, and so on.

Models do not have to pay to join Studios, but they are also not guaranteed a fixed salary. However, the studio keeps a percentage of the model’s salary. The percentage fixed on their contract, but usually, they keep 50% (based on the country, and the Studio’s quality)

Streamate or SM

Live video chat site, this is the website’s name.

Token

The currency’s name on different webcam sites like Chaturbate. You can buy goodies with this, or you can use it as a Tip. Similar to credit or gold.

Tip

You can give small or big rewards to the models that you like. Every bigger cam site has the function to give certain amounts to the broadcasters. (Livejasmin = Surprise, Chaturbate = Tip)
On some websites when you give tip it triggers a different sound on the model side (the bigger tip, the bigger sound) that reacts to the model’s sound-controlled toy. (usually, the pink one which called: OhMiBod)
