Stripchat is a popular camming site that welcomes people of all genders and sexual orientations to enjoy a good time as they perform or watch models do their shows. The site was first launched in 2016, and throughout all these years, it has accumulated a loyal customer base and an impressive number of performers. It is known that the site has over 400 million visits every month.
If you’re considering becoming a model at this website, you must be familiar with the process and the hypothetical payout you’d receive. It would help if you also got to know how the website pays its models, whether the user base is friendly or not, among many other aspects, so that you can know how the site works and adjust your expectations accordingly.
Generally speaking, the experience that most performers have with Stripchat is average. According to Stripchat, the site’s top models earn over $15,000 per month. It can take a long time to get there, but it lets you know that the site pays well.
That said, we’ll go over the good and bad aspects of Stripchat for people interested in becoming models on this platform.
Stripchat: Overview

Signing Up as a Performer at Stripchat
As mentioned, Stripchat welcomes people of all genders and sexual orientations to perform. Although most of the performers (and those in demand) are women, you can also find plenty of guys and couples performing now and then. It’s not unusual to see whole groups of people performing together. Hence, that is always an option if you don’t want to perform independently.
At first, all you’ll need to register on the site is a username and an email. Once this information is entered, Stripchat will send you a verification email with your credentials. Once you click on the link they’ve sent, you can start setting up your profile.
Still, keep in mind that your signup process is not over. You still have to verify your profile. You need a digital copy of your ID document. The verification takes less than 24 hours, so you’ll be set up to start performing within one day.
Of course, the site requires you to have a few other requirements to be able to perform, but we’ll go over those in the next section.
Requirements to Perform on Stripchat
Once you’ve signed up, you must ensure you reunite all the requirements to perform. Here’s what you’ll need:
- Your computer should at least have Windows 7 (or beyond) or Mac OS X 10.9. You need a Quad-Core processor and at least 4 GB of RAM.
- Obviously, you’ll also need a webcam. If you have a laptop, you can use the integrated webcam initially. Still, upgrading to an HD webcam is highly recommended, as the site tags performers with better video quality.
- Stripchat requires internet with a minimum of 2.0 Mbps of upload speed. That shouldn’t be too complicated, as most people have good internet connections. A better upload speed will allow you to have a smooth show that your fan base enjoys.
- You can always attract more people to your shows if you include interactive sex toys. Depending on your comfort and overall preferences, it can bring more diversity to your shows and tip menu.
- Last but not least, try to find a good place to perform. It’s not unusual for people to perform from their bedrooms, but professional models tend to dedicate a whole room for that purpose. Make sure the site you choose is in order, well-illuminated and clean.
These are the minimum requirements for people who want to perform on Stripchat. The website isn’t very demanding regarding technical requisites, but a better computer will always be handy if you want your shows to go smoothly.
Features
This website has many features that you, as a model, can explore if you want to make the most out of your webcam-performing career. Here’s what you can expect to find on Stripchat:
Menunjukkan
The primary source of revenue at this website is adult webcam shows. The site allows you to perform in four different ways, depending on what makes you comfortable and your overall preferences:
- Public Shows: Anyone can access public shows. Therefore, there’s no restriction when it comes to access. These shows can be quite profitable if you know how to make them interesting, as you can take advantage of tip menus and games to draw people’s attention.
- Pertunjukan Pribadi: Private shows are one-on-one sessions people can request from you. The client pays by the minute, and you can set the rate for the shows at any time in your profile settings. People can spy on your private shows, and you get paid for it, too.
- Cam2Cam Shows: Some members may feel like having a more immersive experience with you. That’s why Cam2Cam shows exist, as the client can turn on their camera to see them while you perform for them. Spying on these shows is impossible, and the rate is up to you.
- Spy Shows: As mentioned above, spy shows are on Stripchat. People can choose to spy on private shows, and you get paid by the minute. As happens with regular private shows, the rate is up to you. A person who spies on your show cannot interact with you.
User Activity & Level System
Stripchat happens to be one of the most popular camming sites at the moment. Therefore, you can expect plenty of user activity, although it may take a while to start getting fans initially, as there’s plenty of competition. Still, if people like you and you perform well, they’ll stick with you for a long time.
Although this information should only be relevant to users, you should know that the site uses a level system depending on how people use the website. To be more specific, this system allows you to identify whether someone is a high-paying user or not. The levels work as follows:
- Grey, Bronzedan Silver levels are achieved when you earn 1, 10, and 20 EXP, respectively. The only perks you’ll get will be a new badge and nickname.
- Starting from the “Gold” tier (it requires 35 EXP), you won’t lose your rank even if you run out of tokens.
- The “Diamond” level (it requires 55 EXP) unlocks a new perk for you, as now you can modify your level to disguise it and not let other users find out how you use the platform.
- The last levels are “Royal,” which requires 80 EXP, and “Legend.” You’ll unlock all the perks from the previous level and will have access to all those benefits forever. You’ll be able to send private messages to any model and enable invisible mode, among many others.
It can get tricky to determine if someone is a Royal or Legend user since they can modify their level and fool performers and users. However, the rest of the levels are quite easy to identify, which means you’ll be able to see who’s likely to pay as they enter your shows.
Sell Videos & Photos
A recurring feature in camming shows is the ability to sell videos and photos. Thus, you can make some passive income if you upload media to the site, which users can purchase using tokens. You can choose the price of your photo sets and videos. No one can access this content unless they pay for it!
Premium Fan Clubs
Premium fan clubs are another option if you’d like to earn money, as they can be especially profitable if you’ve already earned a good following here. You can start a fan club once you reach the 1,000 subscribers milestone. People can subscribe to your profile in one of the following three tiers:
- Soldier: You’ll get 100 tokens every month.
- Lord: You’ll get 200 tokens every month.
- Prince: You’ll get 500 tokens every month.
The costs given above apply per subscriber. Some of the benefits that users can get are a special badge and access to exclusive content (that you must provide, it’s totally okay if you don’t want to provide more stuff). They’ll also be able to send you private messages whenever they want.
Some additional but optional features (you can choose whether to enable them) include free spy shows and certain custom perks. People can upgrade or downgrade their tier whenever they want, and you’ll receive notifications per subscription renewal.
Getting Paid on Stripchat
Stripchat claims to be one of the highest-paying camming sites on the internet. However, is that true? Let’s find out.
You should know that Stripchat takes a percentage of your revenue. You get 60% of what you make on the site, while the platform earns 40% of the total sum. Hence, it’s a relatively standard sum compared to other camming sites, but it’s still not as generous as platforms like OnlyFans are paying models up to 80% of their earnings.
However, Stripchat is extremely popular, and the best part is that new models get a placement boost when they first register on the website and start performing. Hence, it’s not that complicated to start earning fans here. Again, if people like you and the way you perform, it’s very likely that they’ll continue supporting you for a long time.
How much are tokens worth?
Fans can pay a specific price for tokens, but their value is entirely different for models. Twenty tokens equal 1.00 USD. Hence, if you want to make at least 50.00 USD, you’ll have to earn at least 1,000 tokens. It’s not as difficult as it may seem since the platform has a solid user base and many people willing to pay for your tip menu or private shows.
Support on Stripchat
Camming sites are infamous for having terrible support. However, that’s not necessarily the case for Stripchat. This platform seems to have a good reputation among webcam performers, especially considering the high number of people modeling here.
The site has a wiki, which you can use to familiarize yourself with all the offered features. There’s also a model FAQ, which we recommend reading upon completing your signup to be more familiar with the site’s availability.
If you have a specific problem and require the assistance of a staff member, don’t be afraid to ask. Stripchat has a professional support team that will answer all your questions and helps you sort out any problem on the platform. The platform is truly trying to make a name for itself online.
