Video chat Stripchat.com is one of the most popular webcam sites. Stripchat, like Chaturbate and BongaCams, is a freemium webcam site (shows take place in public chat for tokens) and is just as popular. I have a special relationship with it: I’ve made several accounts, sometimes it worked, sometimes not so much, but I think I know some tricks that will help to raise rating and start earning on this site.
Here you can start a broadcast and chat in Free mode, receiving invitations to privates, where per-minute billing applies.

Stripchat: video chat for making money webcam model at home
Stripchat attracts a huge number of models and users. The main audience of members is residents of the U.S. and Europe. This platform is more suitable for girls, who arrange frank shows in free chat and prefer to earn tips. Privates here are supported, as well as there is a peeping mode, all mutual settlements are made in tokens.
On this site, you can create photo galleries, earn money by selling videos, sex toys from Lovense are connected. For those who plan to work here, there is no problem, on Stripchat model registration is done through a separate service:
Each chat room requires a scan of your ID to work as a web model. This is necessary to verify the age, people under 18 are not allowed to start broadcasts. The requirements on the sites are different, here you are asked to take a couple of photos – the first is the front side of the document. The second is a photo of the model with the document in her hands (unfolded):
Standard verification, which is found on many sites. Personal data and scans are secure, only the moderator can see them. Photographs must be in color and of high quality so that you can easily read the characters in the documents. As a rule, it takes a few hours to verify, after which an appropriate email is received.
Work (running the show) becomes available only after the moderator will check the specified data and scans of documents. Until then, there is access to the personal account:
In the settings, you can change your information, see your friends, blocked users, design your page, change the main photo, block countries, and set other options. Many languages are supported on Stripchat, which allows you to quickly become familiar with the interface.
Pros:
- The promo period (new and higher position in the ranking) lasts long enough: 15 days from the moment of the first stream.
- Easy registration, you can create new accounts, where there will also be promo.
- Work with interactive vibrators, with virtual reality cameras.
- Streaming from mobile is available.
- Good percentage, unlike private sites.
Cons:
- Lots of brash Arabs and Indians demanding shows for pennies.
- There are almost no nonnude models, it’s a site focused on shows.
- There is often silence after the promotional period.
- Rich users are a minority, for many 32 tokens per minute of private is already expensive.
- If you do not hide the country in time in the settings, you will be shown in your country (Ukraine, Russia).
Average earnings of web models on Stripchat
When you read the comments of the models, it becomes clear that the variation in terms of income is huge. Some make $100 a week, others more than $1,000. The point is that profit depends on many factors:
- Popularity;
- Online time;
- Skills;
- Appearance;
- Audience Activity;
- Time of day;
- Knowledge of English;
- Type of show.
This is not all that affects the overall earnings. Newbies in the first few days make $5-$10, and this is quite normal. You need to knock up a hand, after a month really get to the bar in $50 per day, and in 2β3 months to cross the mark of $100. The most successful manage to get more than $500 a day.
To give you an idea of how much influence different factors have on earnings, check out this table:
Experience | Days per week | Hours per day | English | Income per month |
No | 1 | 1 | Beginner level | $10 |
3 months | 2 | 4 | Beginner level | $300 |
6 months | 4 | 5 | Average level | $2300 |
1 year | 5 | 6 | Average level | $5500 |
1 year | 5 | 8 | High level | $9200 |
From 1 year | 6 | 12 | High level | 17 $000 |
The data is approximate, but the more experience and time spent on broadcasts, the higher the profit rises. It is critical to be active at the start, the first weeks it is better to sit around the clock in the chat room, to maximize the rapid promotion and gain the first viewers. Just do not forget that the show must be interesting; otherwise you will not catch anyone.
Stripchat token price, cost per token
On Stripchat, tokens bring the models $0.05 each. The viewer buys them at a higher cost. The rest is charged as a commission to the system.
The standard rate here is 50%. At the top of our site there is a button to go to the calculator, there you can enter any number of tokens, select the desired site and check how much it is in rubles or dollars. When you enter into an internal account, coins are automatically converted to dollars, payments are made in U.S. currency.
Filling out model profile
Before you go online, as on any site, take the time to fill out your profile. Members look for a model by category (age, hair color, breast size, and so on).
On Stripchat, to open your personal profile, click on the icon in the upper right corner of the page and click on “My Profile”.
Here you can specify your appearance, the country you’re streaming from (but if you want, hide it in the settings), links to social networks, and even interests (from sexual preferences to what movies you like to watch).
The next line is Super Target.
If desired, the model creates some kind of global goal for which she raises money (for example, to buy a new Lovense vibrator or to travel – in general, whatever your imagination can do).
Schedule
Don’t forget to specify the hours and days you go online. Members and subscribers who visit your page will see the schedule according to their time zone.
Individual design and profile filling
In free form, tell us about yourself, post some photos, or write a tip-menu. Here’s an example of one model’s panels:
Usually, everyone writes some information about themselves, room rules, advertise the fan club and membership privileges.
It is mandatory to have at least 4 panels – this is necessary to increase the rating on the site.
Stripchat forms a listing of models on the main page according to the so-called StripScore – the higher it is, the closer to the top the account is.
The newer pages have a slight advantage and are placed just above the streamers with the same speed, but it will not always be that way. To have an advantage over others already on your first day on StripScore, do whatever is necessary to raise your StripScore.
As we see, StripScore is also influenced by the photos published in the profile (5 pieces at least) and at least one video. The site is not particularly picky about the quality of the uploaded content, so you can make a short video on your phone or recorded through OBS, and some selfies.
Also, upload a picture or video as a background (scroll to the top of the profile page and click “change background”).
After completing your profile, click again on the icon next to your avatar in the upper right corner of the page and go to “Settings and Privacy”. Here you can block users from certain countries and hide your own country.
Setting up broadcast in Stripchat
So, you’re ready to start streaming. Click the green “Broadcast Center” button on the top bar, check that you agree to all the site’s rules, and click “Start Broadcast”.
You will see roughly the following:
Stripchat offers streaming both via the browser and via OBS. Do it your way, but I still recommend doing it via OBS for better quality. In this case, click on “Switch to External Broadcast Software (OBS)”, then on “Show OBS Broadcasting Specification”.
The caring Stripchat even tells you exactly how to set everything up to broadcast without problems.
Once you’ve copied all the necessary keys into OBS, a green “Start Broadcasting” button will appear on the left side of the screen. We’ll come back to it later. The first thing to do is to fill in the room theme and type-menu because we remember that this affects the rating.
Under the broadcast window, you will see many tabs. Go to “My Details” first.
In this section, we set prices for shows and what you’re willing to show in those shows.
My Show’s Activities – it is advisable to specify the maximum number of items that you are comfortable doing because these are additional categories for model search. A public show is a free-chat with token actions, a private show – you and the member are one-on-one, and everyone else just peeks. An exclusive show is a real private show, where peeping is forbidden, and the member can show himself on camera.
Traditionally, an exclusive private is more expensive than a normal private because it deprives the model of the opportunity to make money on peeping, and also guarantees the member a more personal communication with the girl he likes.
Group show – several members are watching at the same time. Personally, I rarely put it on, since I don’t have them popular at all, but if you want to try it, there’s a “ticket show/group show” button under the broadcast window. By the way, I don’t run the ticket show either, but it’s better to put a price higher than 60 tokens, since it’s a one-time payment that allows the user to watch the whole show.
To be honest, I’d recommend putting 8 tokens private just to get more audience in the room during the promo period, but don’t do a show for 8 tokens per minute βΊ If they insist on privates, you can agree on additional types, or offer exclusives.
While you’re just starting to stream, try to spend most of your time in free-chat, gain subscribers and preferably active fans who will support you.
One thing I really like about Stripchat is the ability to set a minimum private time (10 minutes in my case). That is, even if the user leaves the private after one minute, you still get tokens for the full ten.
Many people, however, think that this is not really fair to the members, especially when the model is new. It’s as if you’re forcing him to pay extra money. Well, I don’t think it’s fair to the model to go into a private room for a few minutes so that all the viewers in the room scatter.
Stream Specifics – choose a number of categories that suit you and upload relevant videos. Stripchat moderators will check, and if the video is on topic, your room will be shown in the selected category. A very useful option that helps to increase traffic and attract fetish, targeted members.
Now click on the next tab – My Show Controls.
The site offers a choice of goals (up to five), on reaching which the model performs the declared action. And in the theme of the room, you can write anything. I usually advertise patterns from Lush, some promotions and discounts, or you can just wish everyone a nice day and ask to sign up for an account.
A little lower is the tip-menu. Please note that you need to prescribe at least 4 positions, although the optimal number, in my opinion, 10-20. About what to specify in the tip-menu, you can read in the article, how to work in free-chat.
An example tip-menu of one models:
Record show – enables the option for users to record a public chat and save it to a personal collection in the account (no one else will see the recording except this member).
Recording private shows – all private shows are saved by the member who bought them, also the model can put the past shows for sale by uploading them to her profile.
Who can chat – you choose who can chat: all users, all registered, or only those who have tokens. Allow all registered users to chat, but disable messages from tokens-less members in the settings (they will still be able to write to the chat, but you will not see itβΊ).
Extensions – mini-collection of additional bots and games for users.
- Welcome-bot – configures welcome messages for those entering the room.
- Announcement bot – notifications with a chosen frequency. Usually used to announce any promotions, discounts, remind about the subscription to the fan club.
- Wheel of fortune – game-roulette, for the appointed by your number of tokens, gives a member some prize.
- Polls – a time-limited poll for members. To vote for a particular option, the user must type. For couples: with which vibrator to masturbate with, for couples: on what body part to cum, etc.
- Tip reaction bot – automatic “thanks” after each type.
- Reactions – just gives users the opportunity to support the model and tip by showing her your love.
During the Streaming
Finally, we set up the profile, now we’re going online.
Remember a few ground rules: be active, sociable, try to keep the correspondence in general chat, not private messages (better even make private messages paid), and do not succumb to the provocations of trolls and divorcees.
Users on Stripchat are divided into ranks, each of which corresponds to a different color. Their sequence from lowest to highest spending is: bronze, silver, gold, purple, and red.
Some reach the highest rank in a month, while others have been sitting in bronze or silver for years. If you hover your mouse over a member’s nickname, you’ll see when he registered on the site and draw conclusions about his solvency.
If you become friends with a user, you can make him a “knight” (something like chat moderators, they can banish undesirables and act as an animator on the page). To do this, hover your cursor over the nickname of the member and click on the shield icon.
As we can see in the screenshot of the model, the member with the nickname “waterdogx” is her knight and also a member of the fan club. Only the Ultimate user who bought a subscription to the site with special conditions can be “knighted”. Among them are also the option to write personal messages first and the ability to enter the room “invisible”.
The member who leaves the most tokens in 24 hours becomes the king of the room. The “Show Settings” tab suggests changing the minimum number of tokens needed to become king (e.g., from 500 tokens or from 1000 tokens). If you like, in the room theme, write down that you’ll give the king some kind of prize (e.g. vibrator control for 10 minutes).
Rates for private chat in Stripchat
When you start the broadcast, the Free show starts. All registered users can join it. In this mode, viewers send tokens in the form of tips, the amounts are not limited, and some models put a priority on it. In addition, there are several other modes, where every minute is paid for:
- Private show – the conversation is switched to a closed format, every minute a fixed amount is deducted from the client’s balance. Also, for a small fee, other members can view the broadcast.
- Spy mode – users peek into other people’s private, they do not have access to the chat. Model decides how much to charge for it and can disable this mode in the settings at all.
- Group show – works the same way as a private, but in this case, each minute is charged from several members at once. Initially, they are gathered, and the show is launched only when the required number of viewers is reached.
- Cam2Cam is a private mode, where the member turns on his camera. As a rule, models charge a higher fee for it.
- Ticket Show – the model plans to run a closed show and offers everyone who wants to buy tickets to it. It’s convenient because you know right away how many people will be at the broadcast.
Spending time in closed chat rooms directly affects profitability. Experienced and popular models ask a lot of money for such communication. In the account settings, there are special lines for entering the cost of services:
How many tokens to take for one mode or another is up to you to decide. We understand that newcomers may be confused in this regard, so we decided to add approximate rates in the article, depending on experience:
Experience | Private | Spy | Group chat | Cam2Cam | Tickets |
3 months | 8-16 | 4-8 | 4-8 | 16-24 | 24-32 |
From 3 months | 24-32 | 8-16 | 8-16 | 24-32 | 32-44 |
From 6 months | 44-60 | 24-32 | 24-44 | 44-60 | 44-60 |
Suppose you work for more than 3 months and take 30 tokens per minute for a private. We get 300 tokens for 10 minutes, it comes out $15. Good, given the time involved. But constantly sitting in private is not possible, and sometimes even during the day does not receive invitations from members.
Contests and cash prizes
The best models on this platform can earn even more through prizes from the administration. Every month there is a contest with a huge fund, information about it can be found in the personal cabinet. The winner is determined by the number of StripPoints, which are distributed every 3 hours to the most active:
The main prize is $1,000. There are 100 models in the TOP, and a separate contest for couples, guys, and trannies. In total, the administration provides $40,000 monthly. In addition, every 3 hours, the best models receive a reward from $5 to $20 (TOP 5). Here, the winners are determined by the number of tokens collected in the allotted time.
Payments and Withdrawals for Models
Withdrawal of funds is carried out on Tuesdays. The minimum amount is $50. There are different ways to get money, choose between ePayments and Paxum, these payment systems are common among the models of many countries. There is a section in the personal cabinet, where you can specify the details:
Here you select the payment system, currency and minimum threshold. Funds come in steadily, without delays or hidden fees.
Stripchat rules for models
Despite the fact that video chats do not impose strict censorship, you cannot do absolutely anything you want on the live broadcast. A model must follow certain rules:
- It is forbidden to broadcast through several accounts at once;
- Pre-recorded video cannot be passed off as a live broadcast;
- The model must have a microphone during the broadcast;
- It is necessary to choose the right category of the show;
- It is forbidden to go out of the frame for a long time (you have to put it offline);
- You cannot deceive the members (to promise to show something and then refuse);
- The account will be banned if minors appear in the frame;
- It is also forbidden to portray minors and discuss topics related to them;
- Topics and displays of incest are not allowed;
- Animals, drugs, suicide, brutal violence, and blood are prohibited on the show;
- Scenes of menstruation, feces, urination, and vomiting are prohibited;
- Models are not allowed to fall asleep on the show or depict fainting;

- Each contestant on the show must register and provide scans of documents;
- No spamming is allowed, you can’t ask for a link, throw them in the chat, etc.;
- It is forbidden to insult other users, models, the administration of the site.
Another important point is that it is forbidden to deceive members about connected sex toys. For example, turning them off or using the same ones in the frame. For some violations, there is a warning, for others a fine, and bad offenders are simply blocked from the site.
Promotion tips
It’s not easy to make money on communication, and many newcomers are quick to quit because they can’t make any real money. The problem is that only a few are willing to learn.
To effectively start and develop, we recommend:
- Sell the recordings of the private through your modeling page;
- Virtual studios (such as BunnyCam) help with promotion;
- Design your page beautifully and actively upload content to it;
- Don’t hit the start button until you’re ready for the show;
- Promote your account through a forum, social networks, video sharing sites;
- Come up with interesting ideas to make your private chat interesting to your members;
- Spend as much time online as possible (preferably 40 hours a week);
- Add your members as friends;
- Delight fans with personal messages;
- Install Stripchat app;
- Keep your privacy; Make up a cover story;
- Watch your appearance, you need to look attractive;
- Don’t miss a single question in the chat, pay attention to everyone;
- Learn foreign languages.
In one day to go to a lot of money is unlikely to work, you need to create a buzz around you, somehow stand out from the other models, literally live in a video chat and count the first time only on the prospects.
