Pros and cons
BabeStation
Pros
- Free shows are available, and the formats under live cams, gold shows and private add gold, private, pervcam and vip shows on top of the free section.
- A wide roster, with 1,603 models online, spread across the niches in couples, trans and fetish.
- Payment covers credit card, bank transfer and phone, adding phone and sms billing to credit card and bank transfer.
Cons
- The coin allowance of Up to 400 free Babecoins per month for VIP members is held for VIP members, so the free Babecoins sit behind the £9.99 plan.
- Payment runs on credit card, bank transfer and phone, which does not carry the prepaid, virtual card and cryptocurrency options listed for Xtease through credit card, debit card and prepaid card.
- Support runs on email, phone and help centre, and that list carries no chat option, so a quick answer waits on email.

Questions about each
BabeStation
Is there anything to watch for free?+
Yes. Free shows are listed as available, and the show types under live cams, gold shows and private cover live cams beside gold, private, pervcam and vip shows. The larger coin allowance, Up to 400 free Babecoins per month for VIP members, is tied to the membership tier rather than the free section, so casual viewing costs nothing and a longer session needs the plan priced at £9.99.
What does the membership plan cost?+
The membership price is listed as £9.99. Free shows are available without it, and the coin allowance listed as Up to 400 free Babecoins per month for VIP members goes to members. The show types under live cams, gold shows and private include gold and private shows, so a single account covers free viewing and the paid formats.
Stripchat
Does Stripchat have free shows?+
Yes. Public shows cost nothing to watch, and the catalogue is large with 9,234 models online at the time of checking. The same free public coverage is listed on most of the sites compared, so the deciding factors are the show formats and price per minute rather than free entry alone.
What does a private show cost per minute?+
Private shows are priced per minute by the performer, at $0.40 to $7.50. That range is wider than several of the compared sites, and it is worth checking the stated rate before a session starts, since the top of the range is well above the €0.62 across the sites compared.
