Freemium Show Rates Calculator

Price your private shows too low and you work harder for less. Price them too high and nobody books. This calculator shows what models with a room the same size as yours actually charge, so you can start from a real number instead of a guess. Enter your average viewers and you get the typical rate for a private show, a spy show and an exclusive private, plus what you take home per minute.

The rates come from a snapshot of 1,000 online rooms, sampled across the whole popularity ranking. Small, mid-size and top rooms are all represented. Only prices and viewer counts were kept, no usernames or images.

Rooms are grouped into six sizes by average viewers: 0–5, 6–20, 21–60, 61–200, 201–800 and 800+. For each size, the calculator shows the typical rate: the middle price, with half of similar rooms charging less and half charging more.

The "to you" figure uses a payout of $0.05 per token. That's what models get on Chaturbate, Stripchat, CamSoda and MyFreeCams, which is why one calculator works for all four.

Typical rate in tokens per minute, with the range charged by the middle half of similar rooms in brackets.

• Private show: one viewer pays per minute for a show away from the public room. Other viewers can usually pay to watch.
• Spy: those other viewers watching a private show without interacting. The rate is lower, but every spy adds to what the private already earns.
• Exclusive private: a private show with no spies allowed. It costs the viewer more because you give up the spy income.

Not every site offers all three or uses the same names. Chaturbate, for example, has no exclusive privates. If your site doesn't offer a show type, skip that card.

Start at the typical rate. It's what viewers in rooms like yours are used to paying, so it won't scare anyone off.

Raise it when privates get booked back to back. A queue of requests is the clearest sign you're cheaper than your demand. Move up one step and see if bookings hold.

Keep exclusive privates well above regular privates. Models charge 1.3 to 2 times their regular private rate, because the spy income is gone.

Check again when your room grows. Typical rates jump at each room size, so a model moving from 20 to 60 viewers can often charge 50% more.

This is what models charge, not what earns the most. Bookings and tips aren't public, so there's no way to know which rates get booked most.

The rates are a single snapshot. Prices shift with the time of day, the season and each site's promotions.

Rates sit on fixed steps. Most prices land on a handful of values (8, 12, 16, 24, 32, 60, 90, 120…), because sites offer set price options. Pick the closest step your site allows.

Ticket and group shows aren't included. Their prices only show up while a show is announced.

Rates are based on a sample of live rooms and are meant as a starting point, not a guarantee of bookings or income. Payout rates are subject to change. Check current rates directly with each platform before making decisions based on them.
