Questions about each
CAM4
How much does a private show cost on CAM4?+
Private show fees run $0.99 to $4.99, and that is the range to set aside before booking. Each performer sets a rate within it, so the final figure depends on who you book. Gold show and group formats are also available.
Is there anything to watch for free?+
Yes. Free shows are part of the site, so browsing needs no spend at all. You can look through those first and only move to a paid private or group show if you want to. The first token purchase also adds 15% bonus on first purchase.
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.
