Stripchat Reviewed Based on its Brazilian Webcams

Stripchat is by far the classiest freemium cam site you can find online. While the site is flush with flesh, you will find that the platform's layout is clean and that the user interface was well designed for a seamless experience that is virtually devoid of ads. Compared to other tip-based cam sites, Stripchat can be seen as slightly more expensive, as the tokens are a little more expensive and the minimum price of a private show is 8 tokens a minute compared to the standard 6 on other sites.

The price may be a tad higher, but in this case, what you are paying for is an overall better experience.

Model Selection

With an average of between 1,200 and 2,000 webcam models online, Stripchat is one of the bigger cam sites. You will find that many of the webcam rooms have a small flag icon, given you a quick indication of where the model is from. You can easily find models from specific countries, such as Korea, Colombia, and Russia.

Overall, there is a huge variety of models on Stripchat. In terms of ethnic diversity, few sites can compete with what is available on Stripchat. The site isn't only good for cam girls. There is also a wide selection of couples, boys, and trans.

As a Free User

You can watch the chat rooms on Stripchat for free without registering, but you won't be able to chat in any of the rooms. Once you have completed the free registration you will be able to start compiling a favorites list and you will be able to chat in some of the rooms as a Grey user. Some chat rooms keep you muted until you have purchased tokens or tipped in the room directly.

If you are just a free user, you can watch and chat, but you won't really have much influence over the show itself.

As a Paying User

Buying tokens makes you a Green user. You gain the ability to tip for requests, for media such as pictures and videos, and towards the room's set goals. You also gain the option to initiate a private show, a cam2cam show, or to spy in on someone else's private show as a voyeur. As a Green, you can still be muted for 24 hours at a time by Knights, but you cannot be banned by them.

Generally speaking, the more you are willing to tip the friendlier the cam girls will be to you.

As a Gold Member

On Stripchat you get the first month of Gold membership free, after which it is $19.99 a month. You gain a number of benefits, including the option to PM models and to use emoticons in the chat. Furthermore, you can use the site in invisible mode, tipping and chatting anonymously. You gain a special status in the chat, which combined with your golden user name will usually get your more attention in the chat rooms.

Only Gold members can be promoted to Knights, which are basically the chat room moderators. As a Gold, you will be presented with exclusive token package offers from time to time. Since you occasionally get discounts out of it, Stripchat's monthly premium membership is one of the better ones.

Show Types

Free chat - The open chat rooms which anyone can enter. Users with tokens can tip towards goals and requests which they have.

Group show - Group shows on Stripchat are relatively uncommon. A few users band together and each pays a per-minute fee. The show will last for as long as there are enough people in the group show. If too many users drop out, the model may switch back to the free chat room.

Private show - In a private show you are alone in the chat room with the model. Only you and the model are able to interact with each other. These shows start for as low as 8 tokens a minute. The model can choose to enable Spying. There can be a minimum show duration.

Cam2Cam Show - This is a private show where you can turn on your webcam. These shows are usually more expensive than the standard private show, but some of the models charge the same price for both options. In this mode, Spying is automatically disabled.

Spy Show - You can watch somebody else's private show. You will also be able to hear the model's audio feed, but won't be able to interact with her. Spying is usually cheaper than a private show, with a minimum price of 4 tokens per minute.

VR Show - A VR show is a standard cam room but in VR. You can use VR in free chat, group shows, or private shows, but if you have the VR headset on, you really shouldn't try to cam2cam.

Token Prices

The bigger the token package you buy, the bigger the discount you get on each token.

Tokens cost between 8.5 and11 cents, depending on the package you end up with.

The larger token packages will reward you with a Gold Offer in addition to a discount. These options give you a Gold membership without having to pay the monthly $19.99.

Safety & Security Measures

Stripchat uses top-notch TLS encryption to safeguard your data. This encryption is verified by Comodo CA Limited, a recognized name in the encryption industry. You can boost your security further by using Skrill, Paysafecard, or even PayPal, which do not require you to give up your card information.

Customer Support

The customer support on Stripchat is in essentially the weakest part of the site. You are limited mostly to the FAQ, which isn't overly detailed. Other than that, you can submit a ticket regarding any question you have. The response time is relatively fast, but there are competing sites that offer more support options.

Conclusion

Stripchat has a hell of a lot to offer. You have a big selection to choose from, the video quality is great, and the user interface is very easy to use. Stripchat is only marginally more expensive than similar sites, which charge the same price for tokens, but charge 6 tokens a minute for a private show, instead of the 8 which Stripchat does. In truth, if you are buying the best-valued tokens package, the price difference is a paltry $0.18 a minute, which makes Stripchat totally worthwhile.
