well i really like this site but support do not answer me about my question.. it is terrible i really want to change my username because is terrible, i dont know why i choose that stupid one but i almost have 5000folowers on my account. is any possibility to create new account and transffer folowers?? anyone know?
14 July 2017 - 12:52YES U CAN.. u have to verify yourself first
try again emailing them?
16 July 2017 - 20:05what i mean by verify.. like they going to make sure its u.. that's asking in the email. they might ask for your id or something i forgot
16 July 2017 - 20:06thank you but again no answer from them.. damn i hate my username really
17 July 2017 - 16:39You have to disable your old account and create new with new name. I had the same situation and even 7000 followers, i hated my nickname))!!!well,i changed nick and it is so difficult to built it up now..now its only 900 followers (( So,- think, before you will change it. May be better to stay with old name.
18 July 2017 - 22:38I was told by chaturbate support that username cannot be changed, but I was able to create a new account with a new name, and support transferred my followers and tokens after verifying my ID. Worth a try if they ever get back to you. They seem to answer the few emails I've sent to them, but sometimes it's taken a weekday or two before I got a response. Hope some of that helps!
19 July 2017 - 11:55Hey bottyellaxxx, We can transfer followers from one account to the other, the new one must be age verified. I'm going to send you a private message and if you can provide the usernames, I can get the ball rolling on that.

Looked like a gold mine to me at first. On the first night I earned 60+ dollars in 3-4 hours. When I wasn't a new model anymore, most people just lost interest. I can't stand bunch of peeping toms in there, who just want to freeload.

Love this site. The community and interface are amazing.
30 June 2017 - 9:56The token value % is leaves a little to be desired ($0.05) but there's a pretty good stream of payers.
The apps and bots are a lifesaver.

Amazing interface, seriously one of the best, the apps and bots make the site. There's tons of traffic but the majority are freeloaders, you won't make money until you have a large fan base or are lucky enough to get one big spending regular. You must be able to dedicate full time hours and strict schedule in order to succeed.

Honestly the traffic on CB used to be GREAT for me when i was younger and in better shape. Ive never had a problem with receiving payment and considering how much traffic the site gets , its amazing it doesnt crash all the time. My only beef is getting kicked and banned froom broadcastig all the time and losing my followers. But I was not totally innocent....

Well, i just want to say that i started to HATE chaturbate! I was never lucky on this site! I dont know really how to work there..I worked since 2014 or even 2013 but i never )never-never had more then 60-70 visitors! And it was LUCKY days. Usually i have only 3-7!!! What is the hell, i dont know..maybe i have goddamn on it))!!!!But actually i am pretty with nice shape and i am nice with them but they just do not come in! I had to close my room and to make new in a hope that it will help me to start from zero in a good way...but noooo!!!!!it was better only first day and then again-silence...I am so jelaous to girls who are on first page ...i will never be there (((Am i the one like this?
31 May 2017 - 3:53SAME! with me.. i deleted my acct
i tried long enough 3years ish..
31 May 2017 - 23:59So i am not the one in it)Can i ask where do you have luck?Maybe i willhave there too)))
1 June 2017 - 1:06I'm in the same place with chaturbate. I've been there for a year now and no matter what, I just can't do well. It's been getting so bad lately. I'll get a few viewers, not a lot. Probably 70% anonymous viewers, 20% grey users, 10% actually have tokens, but very very few will actually tip or even take me private. The freeloaders there are just getting really bad fast. Last year in the fall, I wasn't doing great there but it wasn't awful. But in the past few months, it's just getting bad FAST.
8 June 2017 - 21:37same here, i stop with CB it was only wasto of time there

They banned me for no reason. I was on one night, making money. The next time I log on, it says I'm banned. Contact support after 5 full days, the response, please give your screen name. I included in my request, DUH. so all my traffic sources were taken down, and I'm warning folks. after years of working and promoting for this site, I've realized they don't care about the people who work for them.

All I can say is not enough. This is the worst site!
18 May 2017 - 12:35Doesnt matter if you dont break any rule. If people report you they ban you. I am 22 years old almost 23 I was working on chaturbate for almost 3 years and after all now I am banned and they say I cannot do nothing. Doesn´t matter if you show them your ID, passport, birth certificate. What they do is not moral at all.
I promise I wont stop defending my rights and the rights of other models are at the same situation. I wont stop making the world know about this. Because there are many sites that deserve the money much more than this one.
One ban like this is like forever. Really? I keep my head so up because I know I didnt break any rule.
One user said he wanted to kill me and they didnt do nothing with them. Of course they prefer to lose one broadcaster than to lose one possible customer.
I have enough proofs that this site doesnt worth it at all. Really we deserve this kind of treat?
Plus they said me I cannot be intro trans category. Really? I was so stupid to start working on one site like this that doesnt respect us at all. They do what they want. So I will do what I think is correct. I wont stop because when I speak I speak loud.
i deleted my acct 2 weeks ago. gave my tokens away.. i tried years there. being there was making me feel bad.. plus recording pirates was ridiculous
best thing i did. i still like the site.just not the work on. i cant do it. but once in a while i'll go there to tip models i like
20 May 2017 - 3:01@DaphneApollo - We are sincerely apologize we couldn't lift the ban. If there is anything else please don't hesitate to contact us. Kindly, check your Direct Messages.
24 May 2017 - 2:35@DarkestRose- Online piracy is something that affects every single website and affects mainstream industry (I.E. music, movies, tv shows..etc..) as well.

Traffic is big there and need patience like loads of it if you wanna make the big bucks, loads greys and opportunists, I appreciate some cam girls coming into my room to chat me up tho :p
13 May 2017 - 6:56Payment is 0.05€ per token so this is the reason I give only 4 stars, it could be 0.10€ instead otherwise payment processing is smooth, I like being paid each 2 weeks and I make it a goal to reach a certain amount of tokens when about to close these last couple days before pay time.
Support is swift for registering that's the only experience I got with them,
Software is great, it gives you in real time the frames per second when you streaming so this is helpful if you got some connection issues and since now I finally got high debit stream it let me choose whether I wanna broadcast in HD and wide and what resolution am looking for, brillant !!

Seems to me that CB is slowly but surely phasing out when compared to other camsites. Yes their "viewer" numbers are always very high, but over 2/3rds of total viewers are usually anonymous, NON-REGISTERED, NON-TIPPING viewers. I've put so much effort into learning to code bios and navigating the ins and outs of the site that I hatet to see it decline!e!
12 May 2017 - 7:13And not just that! If someone report you doesn´t matter what they ban you. So it´s not one site you can trust.
20 May 2017 - 2:21Please note ranking on the homepage is determined by how many registered users are in your chat room. We also invite our broadcasters to urge non registered viewers to make free Chaturbate accounts, by using our affiliate program you can earn money for each sign up.
25 May 2017 - 2:54On my new CB account(which I had to restart all my followers to zero due to joining Boleyn Studios) it says that the affiliate program is now closed to broadcasters. It didn't say that on my old account.
28 May 2017 - 2:38So how can I get paid to refer a client then?

I started off camming on this site. I was a good site to gain some experience. I did not stay here long thou because every single one of my shows are recorded. I even tried to get them taken down thru CB and even thou they said they would take them down, they never were. Every single show is still up. It was a fun place to cam sometimes. Yes there are paying customers, but there are tons of freeloaders that just sit in your room too. This site is good for very creative cam models and models who enjoy very public nude shows and have a high energy personality.
19 April 2017 - 6:34Sorry to hear about your situation regarding recordings.

I worked on CB for about 6 months. This was my second cam site within my first week of starting as a cammodel. The beginning was pretty good because I was new. I only earned $100 the first month, working about 20 hours a week. A lot of guys took advantage of the fact that I didn't know what I was doing however. I worked part time for those 6 months and the most I earned was $700 in one month.
6 April 2017 - 21:19I'm sure this is model error. I don't know how to keep people engaged and I get bored quickly. Near the end I was only earning $100 in a month and had to quit it. I noticed a huge influx of the non-paying audience to my chat. There would be 100 people in the room, no one tipping, and tons of grays filling the page. I turn off grays now, I think I was too accommodating of them. I recently tried the site again and I can't get out of the non-paying audience, even under a different name. I think CB is ruined for me. I only get 7-15 people in my chat now, regardless of title, visuals, games, high energy level, etc. It's time to lay the beast to rest.
I really love this site, so I gotta say, I'm heart broken. I will still go to chat with other models, I think it's way fun to hang out there. But if you're not on the first 3 pages you're not gonna earn money. I love the apps and bots because I can code my own programs and games. I love the support. I've had issues in the past with harassing users reporting me as underage as a form of revenge, those users and all their accounts were swiftly banned after a short interlude of my own account being de-activated due to the auto report system. My account was swiftly re-activated and support was always attentive to my needs.
I think the traffic is only good if you're a certain style of model: High energy, thin/athletic, HD Cam with bright colours, good music and flirty. If you are lacking some of these things there are also a few models who earn bank doing privates only. The private strategy can work really well for people who can only get 20 viewers or less in the chat. Don't give it away for free, reserve 'samples' for tippers, focus on niche/fetish stuff, have really good bandwidth. In fact I think the private girls probably make as much or more than the top 10 girls. So it's a good strategy.
I'm sorry to hear of your struggle with traffic. Sometimes getting establish can take a minute. I do have some tips for you...
24 May 2017 - 16:371.Change up your broadcast times.
2. Get creative w/ prizes, games, raffles, ect. The more unique, the better!
3. Make a twitter, tumblr & Instgram to promote yourself & your Chaturbate camshows.
*Be sure to post a selfie and your affiliate URL every single show!*
4. Make sure to send us our username, so we can follow & RT you to our followers.
5. Experiment w/ different apps & bots or new goals.
6. Post a weekly schedule of cam shows. Stick to it.

This site really is a great way to get started. However, I wouldn't say it's necessarily the best place to build a strong fanbase unless you're planning on being a full-time cammer.
13 March 2017 - 20:42As a part-time camgirl, I need the ability to brand my page strongly and express myself without hiring someone to design an HTML banner, which, frankly, never looks too good or professional. If I'm not gonna be there for 8 hours a day, so I need supplemental things for my profile.
With high traffic comes more competition, and I'm getting the sense that because I'm a little more specialized, I'm going to have to head to a smaller site. There just aren't enough ways for viewers to find me aside from the front page. Race is a big part of my identity and it gets fetishized, but you can't really search by race or more specific body types or personalities. It's all just a polite kind of sh*tshow. Huge audience+huge supply=confusion.
But seriously, the platform is solid, customer service always gets back to you within 36 hours, and I haven't gotten a late payment yet. Great place to start and decide whether camming is for you!
We have a tutorial on our Vimeo on bio design that might be helpful. Have you reached out to other models on the site? We find the community is especially helpful.

Positives:
26 February 2017 - 1:22+ Great traffic
Depending on the time of day, you usually get anywhere between 20 - 100 people in your room. If you feel uncomfortable in silent rooms, this will not be a problem as many members are willing to talk here.
+ You can select your own mods
And also choose how long they have mod status.
+ Apps and bots
This is what really makes Chaturbate shine: the community-made apps and bots. They are commonly used and will greatly improve your streaming experience.
+ Payment
CB guarantees pay within 7 days (outside of checks). Daily Pay is available for USA models, and soon for international models. I've chosen wire transfer and as a European broadcaster, I've gotten my payment consistently after 2 days of requesting payout. I'm very pleased.
+ Promos
Chaturbate's official Twitter promotes all kinds of models (women, men, trans, couples) to their 174k followers.
+ Software
Customisable and beginner friendly. I love it! The chat settings are very nice. You also have options such as only allowing members who have tipped you to be able to talk in chat; which kind of user you get notified of when they join your chat (users with tokens, mods, fans), what the font should be displayed to you, and a little more. You can also choose to set your own private, group, and spy show rates from the set options available, or turn them all off altogether, and set how many tokens a user needs to have to request a show with you, and how many minimum minutes the show needs to be for them to enter private. You can also choose to send an email to your followers anytime before or during broadcasting to let them know that you're online. All very nice, and very appreciated.
+ Privacy
For the shy models, you'll be happy to hear that Chaturbate allows models to wear masks on cam, and do not force you to show your face. The only time they need to see your face is during the verification process.
+ Support
I communicate with support a lot as I like to ask many questions. They usually get back to me within a few hours; at the most, within two days. I recommend talking to the admins (like Shirley) if you need help with individual cases as general support may struggle to address your problem directly. For generic questions, such as "is x allowed," general support is fine and helpful.
Negatives:
- Not everybody tips
While the traffic is great, they will be mostly greys and anonymous users. You will be catering to a great deal of freeloaders.
- Selective rule enforcement
If top models are breaking the rules, Chaturbate won't bat an eye. If a smaller model tries to do the same, they will certainly risk being banned. Their official Twitter has actually retweeted models announcing rule breaking streams (golden showers, drinking shows, and so on) quite a few times. And speaking of bans, your personal bans will only last 60 days. Why have time limits on member bans? It's very annoying. We ban them for a reason, and they should stay banned.
- Babyface? Better try elsewhere
Chaturbate will discriminate against young looking models without warning by banning them, even if the banned models have been age verified and worked on CB for over a year. I would NOT recommend to sign up if you look young. Join at your own risk.
- 'Offline'
Every broadcaster has this problem on Chaturbate. Your stream will go offline for a few seconds at random no matter how good your internet connection is. You won't notice it, but your viewers will. It's not too annoying, but it's still a persistent problem.
- Lack of HD video support
The videos you upload to this site are resized, and the resolution is heavily affected. It looks like pixelated garbage and is usually muted even if you don't have any music playing in your video. Disappointing.
- Exhibitionists
There are a lot of them, especially in the male category. Male models have a hard enough time in the camming world as it is, and on CB they will be pushed back further into the last pages, replaced by exhibitionist labels who have more viewers than them. Chaturbate, PLEASE consider having an option to hide exhibitionist streamers so that members can see what rooms are accepting tokens in the categories. I have no doubt this will be benefiting both to CB and male models if this is implemented.
- PIRATED RECORDINGS
This is by far the most important consequence of streaming on Chaturbate and other token sites. EVERY SINGLE SHOW will be recorded by bots. No "maybes," they WILL be recorded and uploaded elsewhere to be sold. Are you comfortable with that? Ask yourself this before joining.
Chaturbate categorises the rooms on their pages by the amount of individual people holding tokens in your room.
And to clarify something in the bio here on WCG: on Chaturbate, you earn 50% of every token given, not "up to 60%." You can earn money for referrals and receive 20% revshare money spent from a member (lifetime), or earn $0.01, $0.10, or $1 (varies from the member's country) from every person that signs up for free (no email required), or get 5% lifetime affiliate income + $50 from referred models. It all depends on what affiliate link you're using.
What's nice about the affiliate links is that you can choose exactly where the link directs you: you can choose for it to go to the Chaturbate homepage; your room; directly to a sign up form, and many more.
Overall, I recommend the site. It is very beginner friendly; the software is easy to use, and the community is welcoming.
What a great review

A month i received warnings for breaking rules even i broke none. I requested in the warnings to tell me what i did wrong...no answer. Today after a new warning I wrote directly to support and ask them to verify what is happening. After 10 minutes a new warning appeared and the account was banned. Every idiot can make complaints for any imaginary reason and the sistem is automatic, it banned the account and no one of their staff verified nothing. Also the site is full of freeloaders and jerks. Also i lost money given for traffic everytime when warnings appeared because that close may cam and remove all from list.
26 January 2017 - 7:40Sorry to hear you had such a difficult time. I'm sending you a private message to see if I can do anything for you.
3 January 2017 - 22:34i also got several warnings in the past for breaking rules i did NOT do. It's ridiculous and the reason why im scared to cam there and switched mostly to cam4. I only go on chaturbate for private sessions with a regular. Plus their payments are super slow ..
