The Best Cam Sites for Camgirls to Make Money

🇩🇪 🇪🇸

I am active on the following cam sites where I can achieve good to very good earnings through webcam streaming. Webcam platforms offer much more than just streaming; you can also earn money through phone sex, messaging, self-made sex videos, and more.

First of all, let me list the cam sites that are based in Europe. The great thing about being a camgirl is that it’s a home job. No matter which cam portal you sign up for, you can work anywhere, regardless of where you live or where the cam portal is located! Another significant advantage of European cam sites is that there is no free chat. You register—always free for you!—and as soon as you go online and a user enters your chat room, you start earning money. 🏠💰

Amateur Communities

You can also earn money with live cams in amateur communities. While the focus is still primarily on selling sex videos, many users also utilize live cams. (A little tip: Record your cam sessions and, if they are particularly hot, offer them for sale as a video on one of the webcam portals!)

The next portal definitely belongs to the category of amateur communities, but it is by no means as well-known as MDH. However, it has a truly loyal audience that is not only friendly but also takes their time. The top stars from the amateur and camgirl scene are not found there, and I believe that’s what makes PrivateGig special. Neither the girls nor the pornographic content is over-optimized; this makes the platform very authentic.

Well, I can’t cover my rent with my earnings as a camgirl on this platform; I have significantly fewer users in my chat compared to other cam portals. But those who visit me have always been super relaxed and friendly. (When you’ve been in the game for a few years like I have, you really appreciate such users! 🙏)

Personally, I think it’s worth a try – who knows, maybe you’ll discover it for yourself too.

FinDom/Fetisch Cams

Yoochat is a platform that connects money mistresses and money slaves. Additionally, there are other categories on Yoochat for various fetishes and preferences, ranging from butt worship to cock control. Registration is free (as with all webcam portals), and you do not need to apply there!

It’s not a platform with a lot of user traffic, but the wait can pay off.

Financial Domination (FinDom)

Only about a handful of providers in this fetish area really earn a lot of money. On one hand, they have been in the game for several years, and on the other hand, they actively focus on marketing and customer retention – and they do this daily!

There are not many money slaves available; on the contrary, to be found among all the available cash pigs on the internet, one portal alone is not enough. Many have their own money mistress websites, often several, where they share photos and videos, write their own blogs, publish wish lists, offer an email newsletter, … and draw attention to themselves through online advertising as well as accounts on Twitter, Facebook, and other platforms.

Unlike the ‘normal’ webcam chat guests, these fetish users are looking for a more permanent connection. They want a goddess mistress to whom they can fully serve or worship. And once you have hooked a money slave, that can be very lucrative for you. But again, without continuous effort, you can quickly lose them.

For those who don’t want to put in so much effort from the start, they can also sign up on the cam portals mentioned here, as all webcam platforms now have a fetish section. However, one should usually expect longer waiting times until such a fetish user enters the chat. Money pigs are rare, and once a money lady has one, she is reluctant to let it go!

🌍 Internationally known cam sites

Now follows a list of cam sites that have strong user traffic due to their worldwide recognition, where you can achieve very good earnings as a camgirl. A special advantage of these portals is the option for geo-IP blocking, which allows you to block users from specific countries! (More about geo-IP blocking and general information further down ⇩.)

I keep the list of international cam portals intentionally short. Besides Chaturbate (described here in the blog) there are countless other cam sites that have emerged in recent years, such as streamate, JerkMate, cherry.tv, … On one hand, I find they all look somewhat similar, both in terms of design and the online models..

On the other hand, I have had so many users in chat with the portals mentioned here that I simply don’t have time to stream elsewhere. For this reason, I can’t provide any experiences with additional cam sites! But, my personal opinion or lack of experience regarding the portals not listed here should not prevent you from trying them out and discovering which one suits you best! 🧭💫

International cam sites

The international cam platforms that I have listed here are also known as freemium cams. Freemium means Free+Premium. This means they offer both a free chat and a paid chat (private chat, premium chat, etc.). There are also differences within this category. At the cam portals Xcams and Livejasmin, you only earn money in private chat, while at Bongacams & Co., you can start earning money through tips right in the freechat. I will try to simplify this by explaining it using Visit-X (a ‘pure’ cam portal) and Livejasmin (a freemium cam portal) before I delve into the tip cams.

Visit-X vs. Livejasmin

At Visit-X, I go online and wait for a user to enter my chat. When a user enters my chat, I am compensated from the very first second. At Livejasmin, I start in free chat. (You can also start in private chat, but I’ve found that hardly any users come to me that way.) When users come into my free chat, I have never had to wait longer than a minute, and it’s never just one user! – I try to seductively but gently convince them why a private chat with me would be worth it. (More privacy, more intimate insights, …)

So while you have to wait for clients at Visit-X, you can attract users from the free chat to the paid private chat at Livejasmin. (Regardless of appearances, if someone is very shy, they might not want to start with the principle of ‘from free chat to private chat’ at Livejasmin.)

Note: In the Livejasmin free chat, you may only show yourself up to FSK16 (bra and panties on, no explicit sexual actions, not even implied)!

Freemium aka tip cams

Of course, Bongacams & Co. also have a paid private/premium chat, and like all cam sites, you can choose the price for the user from a minimum to maximum range. The principle, and what tip cams are also known for, is based on free chat and payment through tips. Your cam sex performance is not offered for free there. Through the tip menu, you indicate what total TIP needs to accumulate, which is called a tipping goal, in order to start, for example, a dildo show.

It’s best to take a look around the respective cam sites, visit the individual chat rooms, go to the tip menu, and check out the different options and goals that the models offer. This way, you get a better feel for how the system works.

The biggest advantage of international cam sites is the country blocking!

🗺️🚫 Geo IP blocking

The best argument for geo-IP blocking is that it allows you to block users from specific countries. For example, if you live in Germany, work as a camgirl, and do not want users from Germany to see you, you can add Germany (and optionally other neighboring countries) to the list of blocked countries. For users with a German IP address, you will then be „invisible“ as a camgirl.

My experiences with the cam sites

Xcams: The traffic is good, and the users are very nice and relaxed. There is also a small German-speaking audience, which means there is little competition from German camgirls. However, the earnings are somewhat low in terms of commission per minute/user.

Livejasmin: One of the oldest live cam sites, therefore extremely well-known, but also with a lot of competition among camgirls. Livejasmin has strict rules; while it is true that on all cam portals, you should never take off your panties in the FSK16 chat, the Livejasmin wiki section gives an idea of what I mean by strict. You need to categorize yourself correctly from the start (you only earn money in the nude category, which includes the hardcore area), your name cannot contain terms like ‘sweet’, ‘Miss’, etc., and there are rules about what can be shown in preview images.

It might not seem easy to start there, but I have ‘grown’ with Livejasmin. Many things sound more extensive or complicated at first than they really are.

By the way, Livejasmin has a great wiki; for every topic, there are texts, images, and/or videos!

Chaturbate: The first free chat portal based on tips. It is still one of the most traffic-heavy cam portals where you can earn good money. However, it still looks pretty much the same as it did years ago; neither the functions nor the design have changed (which isn’t necessarily a bad thing), but I personally prefer Bongacams.

Bongacams: Some camgirls only stream there, and I really enjoy it too. When I go online at Bongacams, I only focus on that platform, meaning I don’t have any other cam portals open. There’s simply no time for other cam sites. At least not for me; I’m so busy there that you can earn up to $100 per hour.

Additionally, there is an automatic translator, so you can chat with any user in the world in your language. The chatbots are also great. They handle some general functions, such as sending automated messages, thanking users for tips, greeting users in the chat, starting a token countdown, adding chat games, … This takes a lot of work off your hands when you have so many users in your chat. (There is a detailed help section!)

Stripchat: There are quite a few German camgirls there, and you can earn well, but I notice that I prefer to stream at Bongacams. It’s just a gut feeling, something I can’t explain. The portal certainly isn’t lacking in innovations, including special categories like cosplay and gaming, but I don’t cater to those niches. Well, I’ll still stick with it; maybe a great love for this cam portal will develop over time.

Conclusion

To be honest, European cam sites (see above ⇑) offer a certain level of comfort: you go online, wait for the next guest, and start your performance. On freemium/tip cam sites like Livejasmin or Bongacams, active and persuasive interaction is required from the very first minute in free chat to generate income. This may not be suitable for beginners, as it requires some practice to „pull“ free users into the paid chat, as well as experience in performance and communication to reach your tip goal faster.

You have more control here, as you immediately have users in free chat, meaning there is zero waiting time. You just need to only convert them into paying customers. With some practice, you can achieve in one hour on these portals what you might earn in three hours on the more common portals. Generally, though, it’s not that easy; such an hour can really mean work!

Overall, I also personally appreciate that with international cam sites (except for Xcams), you only need to go online on one portal. (Streaming tip for a cam portal: Do a cam session from your smartphone, for example, from the bathtub.) In any case, there are always enough users available, thanks to different time zones. Local/national events also help avoid the usual user drought in chats. Payout intervals are more frequent, which is also a plus point. But what they all offer is geo-IP blocking – the biggest advantage if you want to work as a camgirl but don’t want people from your own country watching you during cam sex. 🙈🚫
