Number of Web Cam Hosts
There are thousands of hosts registered at Chaturbate.com, but naturally, not all of them are online at the same time. But don’t worry, you will always find around 100-200 models online complete with thumbnails, an indication of ’NEW’ performers, HD quality, and an ample number of hashtags on the thumbnails indicating their willingness and specialties. Chaturbate hosts are 100% amateur. But hey, we can’t complain when it’s completely FREE, right?
Costs and Billing
Chaturbate is a freemium site, meaning it is free to use and to broadcast for both members and performers. However, private chatting, tip sending and having cam to cam sessions will cost you. It is easy to rank chat rooms according to how pricey they are, by using the link at the bottom of each page. The price ranges from 6 to 90 tokens per minute, and that is quite a range, so make sure you double check those price tags before booking someone for a private session.
You can also earn free tokens by doing one of the following things:
- Bringing friends to the site. You get up to 10 tokens for each buddy who joins. Well, they don’t need to be actual buddies you know, acquaintances are also welcome. You get 500 tokens for friends who end up broadcasting themselves, as long as they earn a minimum of $20.
- Get tokens for broadcasting your own web camera
- Get 200 free tokens by upgrading your membership (see more about this in the Membership section)
- Get 200 free tokens for increasing your spending limit

It gives a great insight into the broadcaster’s popularity and performance.
