For our updated list, please see our ranking of the best webcam sites for 2023.
CamSoda.com
Our top spot on so many lists, CamSoda is a special freemium site that delivers so much more than great live cam shows. The site hosts a community, for models and members alike, and keeps prices so low, almost anyone can afford to have a scintillating one-on-one private chat. It's true that not all rooms posses HD level quality, but these are the minority, and the sensational amateur models make up for it with unique performances.
When first entering the site, your head might spin. Displayed in the main gallery page are dozens of open rooms, all free, with most performers engaged in some kind of sexual act, and naked, too. The profile pictures show the live feed from the rooms all at once, and you're left with the arduous task of selecting which room to choose first.
As with many freemium sites, CamSoda works with a tagging system, which you can search using key words according to your tastes, or just have a blast perusing the rooms and discovering how unique and freaky these ladies really are.
If you prefer your chats private, the starting price is super cheap at only $0.70/min, and the average is $3.00/min, including cam2cam. There is also a fantastic mobile version which offers the capability to have a two way video and audio session over your smartphone or tablet device.

LiveJasmin.com
Our best premium site for many years has been LiveJasmin, which is a true testament to how luxurious and exclusive a live cam site can be, and feel. From the site design, to the beautiful professional models and their impeccable profile pictures, and a category dedicated to performers that only appear on LiveJasmin - Exclusive. LiveJasmin can get rather pricey if you choose to conduct a c2c show, as it charges extra for both the mic and the camera, but sometimes splurging on what you love is totally worth it.
LiveJasmin doesn't have explicit performances in the open rooms, which is actually good news, as the private chats can get pricey. It's best to get to know your divine diva regardless, as these girls are pros, and fully versed in all proclivities. To keep things on the more budget-friendly side, select the Sale category, or filter by Price to get rooms that match you price range.
A private chat starts at $1.20/min, and averages at $3.60/min. Add to that other another $1.20 - $2.40 a minute to activate the c2c features. However, with each purchase you get to Spin The Wheel, which can give you up to double your credits as a gift. You can also select ladies with Promo and New stickers on their profile pics, which guarantee lower rates.
If you don't mind other users during your chat, you can join a VIP Show, which is tip-based, and usually cheap. The members chip in credits, and when the model has met the quota she set, the show can start. These shows feel more like a fun, posh party, and the models are eager to please their tipping guests.

As the site is not strictly premium site, there are quite a few models that enjoy showing their assets off in the free rooms, especially when you enter a multi user chats such as a Party Chat or a Group Chat. These are also much cheaper, too. The rooms on the main gallery page have banners in different colors, which represent the performer having a pleasure toy you can control, but also models that can control your own toy, which is a fun interactive feature.

It's always fun to listen to a seductive Russian accent, a strict German one, or a sensual French croon.

XLoveCam is a great place to find cheap chats with ladies that love to perform. Hovering over the profile pics you'll be able to see in real time what they're up to in their rooms, and there's plenty of action to go around. Perhaps due to the continental nature of the site, there are very few shy or modest gals, which is good news for the members.
When finding a model to have a private chat with, performances start around $1.20/min, with an average rate of $2.20/min, which includes c2c. However, there are two kinds of privates. The first allows others to peek into your chat, and the other, Xclusive chats, are more expensive but guarantee privacy.

The advanced search on the top right gives you the option to choose multiple filters, such as HD Quality, Price, Willingness, and more.
The focus of LivePrivates is the ladies, with less extra features and a more prominent display of the performers, with large profile pictures that also provide a rating, age, and a golden ring around their availability indicator that tell members the performer has uploaded a new Story to her profile. These are just like on Instagram, and give you an personal, intimate look into the models' lives, for free.
Private chats start at only $1.10/min, and average at $3.40, with an extra cost of up to $2.40/min for 2-way video chat.

Stripchat.com
Boasting over 2,000 models online at any given time, Stripchat is the best in regards to the amount of categories and variety of models. There are hundreds of categories offered, from the vanilla flavored, such as Asian, MILF and Tattoos, to more unique offerings - Colorful Colombian, Dancing Indian, Romantic Ebony, Yoga Granny, and so many more. You can also select the HD category and ensure you only see 720p/1080p rooms in your feed.
Stripchat is heavy on kink, even for models not tagged in kinky categories. The ladies, being exhibitionist amateurs, love to express themselves with colorful costumes, hair and makeup, roleplay scenarios, and are happy to provide all of it for free in the open rooms that encourage such antics. The private chats are usually reserved for those looking for special requests, unique inclinations, and perhaps enjoy the privacy of a cam to cam.
Stripchat is the only site today which has VR chat rooms. That's virtual reality, for those still unaccustomed to live porn and tech being so closely related. It's not just pleasure toys anymore, or two-way interactivity, but an actual "meeting" with your chosen lady where it feels just like real life. These VR Cams are still limited in number, but it's growing all the time, as more models get compatible tech, and more members do too.
Another perk of Stripchat is that private chats include VR where available. There's no extra charge for it. Though, these rooms tend to be more expensive. The lowest prices start at $0.90/min, and average at $2.70/min. As all prices include c2c, it's best you activate yours, so that no other member can spy on your private show.
Why Stripchat?
- A completely ad-free experience despite free rooms, sex, and nudity
- Virtual reality in all its glory with amazing HD quality
- Thousands of models with a fetish-inclined sensibility
- Countless categories for your every pleasure

Chaturbate.com
Chaturbate hosts over 4,000 amateur models, who can provide live shows without you ever spending a dime. Countless categories, multiple languages and colorful room designs make the experience of cam2cam with these bold ladies a delight. But with no real filter, it might take a little while to find exactly what you're looking for.
When you first enter the site, make sure to adjust the main gallery page according to your preferences. Select the top right Options button, and then choose your preferred Region/s, Prioritize HD Rooms, and Enable the Floating Player so you can keep an eye on a room you like while still browsing the rest of the site. The rooms marked HD are 720p, and the rooms marked HD+ are 1080p and above.
Private chat start cheap, at $0.60/min, and average at $3.30/min, though there are plenty of low cost chats to go around. If you decide to become a member and purchase tokens, though the free rooms are full of nudity, this will make you a Supporting Member. This status grants you the power to PM other users, stop ads, and get a new member gift of 200 free tokens. If you're extra nice to a model, she may also promote you to be her room Moderator, which allows you to take charge and even kick out unwanted guests.
The main downside of the site, though easy to operate, is setting up the 2 way audio and video chats, which require you to Broadcast Yourself. Technically, this makes you a model, which also means that you can make a little change on the side of your day job, if you so choose. But barring that choice, you can quite easily set things up so you can engage in a delightful c2c session. The site explains it all easily, and effectively.

Streamate.com
Unlike the other sites on the list, Streamate offers a payment method that's rather unique - Pay as you go. Not only that, it also gives the option of using a prepaid card, which is beneficial for two main reasons. The first is that it isn't connected to your bank account, so it gives you an extra level of protection. Also, using this card you can place a spending limit on your account, and so you can always have peace of mind that you're not going over a budget that matches your needs.
Streamate offers plenty of action in the open chats, despite being a premium site. But if you want a private chat, plan on shelling out a minimum of $1.00/min and an average of $3.00/min. You can also choose an exclusive chat which requires a little extra, depending on the model. This makes sure no one spies on your private chat. You can also opt for Block Sessions, which are up to 30% cheaper, as you commit in advance for a set length of chat, from 15 to 60 minute privates.
Another option that makes Streamate stand out comes instead of a membership or VIP program. In place of these you simply receive a percentage of money back in accordance to how much you spend, up to 10% refunded back. The higher your level rises the more attention you'll get from the models, who can see your level (Level 10 is the top spot).
Most rooms stream in excellent HD quality, with a small settings icon in the chat room that allows you to choose your preferred HD streaming rate. To see only the HD rooms, during your search for your best girl, select HD under the top right All Features filter.
