Review
Chaturbate is a live sex cam site that allows users to connect via webcam. Here you can interact with a mixture of ordinary members and model performers, with the ability to give/receive token rewards too!
The Chaturbate Brand
Chaturbate is a hot sex chat website and a cam-show lovers wet dream! Hundreds of members are waiting to give you the show of a lifetime! We rate Chaturbate very highly amongst its competitors as the action is incredibly hot right from the get-go! A lot of competitor brands charge money before letting you in on the action, but here you can view it all before paying a penny. You have to pay to chat, which is a downside, but the models here are more than keen to show what they have to offer. You’ll be tipping in no time!
Registration
Registration is free and involves providing your email address. This allows you to view any cam feed you like completely free of charge. You must register AND purchase tokens in order to chat to anyone here though. Your tokens can be used to view private shows or to ‘tip’ your chosen webcam model.
Desktop/Mobile Capability
Chaturbate is great on the move as it is on desktop! There isn’t a dedicated app available just yet but the site works wonderfully well on both mobile and tablet devices.
User Experience
The user experience of Chaturbate is one of the best around – there is incredibly hot action going on here all of the time! We’ve visited the site a number of times and we’re never bored or tired of the experience. You can view other member’s feeds for free or share your own cam feed as a verified member.
The greatest feature of this site is the interactivity with members during their live cam shows. A lot of the models here play with vibrating sex toys that are under your control. These vibrate automatically whenever you tip the model. The feature works with wireless technology and allows you to dictate the frequency and length of the vibrations with the size/value of your tip. The larger the tip, the longer/stronger the vibrations etc.
The fun doesn’t stop there though! You can also take part in contests with other members, with winners based on the amount of people watching a certain feed and for how long etc. So if you fancy your chances as a performer you can sign up, start your own show and get competing!
We wish we could say we tried streaming ourselves, but we did not fancy sending in a copy of our photographic ID. This, like us, may put a lot of people off!
Safety and Security
The whole verification process may be off-putting for some, but it is necessary for site safety and security reasons. First off, Chaturbate obviously wants to avoid having anyone under the age of 18 operating on or visiting the site. The payment process for buying tokens seems secure enough, with various payment options on offer. There is also a ‘Law Enforcement’ page on site with regularly updated messages. All in all, our experience of Chaturbate was a safe and secure one.
Customer Service
Chaturbate features a fairly detailed support page with FAQ-like answers to various queries and topics. You can find information on billing, the token system and how private shows work amongst other things. There is a feedback page to leave a message but no real contact information. We did email the support email address to ask if there was an alternative to providing photo ID for verification but did not receive a reply. Perhaps it was a stupid question!
Conclusion
We absolutely love Chaturbate – it is a filthy hedonistic playground for naughty individuals to come and play. There are countless camera feeds on offer, with hot action happening in every one of them. And you can view it all for free! Interactivity with camera show performers is also incredible and there’s something for everyone here too.
The whole token system is the only true downside if we had to choose one. Essentially this is a sex chat service, but you must purchase tokens first before being able to chat. The tipping element to the service also means that the site is dominated by professional model performers and those who are purely here to make money. The chances of meeting someone genuine and special here are therefore slim, but then again, is that what you visit a sex chat site for? Probably not. And anything that’s good never comes for free, right?
Believe us, purchasing tokens on this site is well worth it! If only just to control the vibrations for a while! We rate Chaturbate a massive 8.8!
