I have been working on AW since probably 6 months, despite having started the registration process a year ago. I'm a French citizen living in the UK, so considered "high risk" (???) for scamming... Basically, anyone not having a British passport has a very annoying verification process to follow to register for camming on AW, and you will be automatically monitored by a business advisor who takes a small percentage of any camming income (not on phone or content selling). As mentioned by others, model support is extremely rude, no matter how kindly you interact with them. The website itself is visually complicated and messy - very early 2000's vibe - and it can be tricky to find what you are looking for.
However, it was all worth it. I have been working as a cam girl since 2 years now in a variety of websites (private and freemium), and I must say that AW is by far my all times favourite platform. Viewers are used to decent rates (you don't have to follow the cheap girls rates) and I do much less sexual content, as most of my private are kink/fetish oriented.
I also very much enjoy the phone service, which gives me roughly the same income as cam shows there, same thing though, it's mostly kink/fetish. The private gallery and video sales are also a nice complement.
I regret the end of Skype bookings though, it definitely generated a drop in the traffic.
I haven't be joining a group like daily pay yet but will consider it, as the average way to get paid by bank transfer into my UK bank account takes 2 weeks.
Overall, if you're UK based, patient with verification, make the most of all features of the website, and if you are fetish/kink/taboo friendly, you'll have a good experience on AW.

One star for them lying to me about their "Camoji" program back in January 2019. In addition, their customer service is just one of the most crappiest that I ever seen. Boo! Avoid like the plague.

If you're on at the right time and now how to market yourself elsewhere (like twitter) It's easy to bring in traffic. However, there are a lot of freeloaders on this site so be ready to sift through the BS! A few different options for payment; I use daily payout when I cash out and it goes through promptly every time. Models make 5 cents per token (2000 tokens is $100). Software and site functionality is not the most polished or up to date, but it is adequate.

If you signup with the dailypay service to recieve adultwork payments they are very good and helpful as they are a legit group on adultwork and the go to people to sort out problems

I agree. I think this is the most problems on many sites. I think freemium sites should have some rulles too. I would make a rule for premium sites group minimum 1.49 and pvt minimum 1,99 and freemium sites only topless allowed and the rest only in pvt.
Colombian and Romanian managing rates group 0.60 and private 0.90
This adult industry just lost rulles and thats bad.
sim isso é ruim, e triste por que algumas meninas não fazem dinheiro se não colocarem essa taxa baixa...
Your basic commission on this site is 0,11 euro per minute and that sounds really silly first. It took a while until i found out, how to earn a decent money on this site, because their traffic is really not bad.
On this site you have to continuously offer the paid features like sound, c2c, separee, etc. With every paid features you earn extra 0,22 euro and extra 0,11 euro if the visitor talks by microphone.
That means, you are in separee with a visitor, who activeates cam2cam, sound, microphone, you earn 0,88 euro per minute, and you can have even voyeurs during your show, because the guys are curious what happens in separee. Every voyeurs who looks just for a second pays 0,11 euro.
Ok, this is an ideal case, but in my experience 9 guys from 10 accept separee when i ask them, and very often they activate one more feature during the show, so this is average 0,55 euro per minute for me.

And just imagine that if they will not start a separee and you will be watched by 5 guys in the same time it is 5*0,11 , so it could be not a bad situation if you do not have separee with the features. Also they are able to turn on sound in lobby - additional money.
I do better shows, if i only have to concentrate on 1 user. And my experience is, that the guys prefer to be alone with me.
Anyway, i changed my strategy, i raised my price to 2 coins per minute and i don't suggerate separee anymore, only cam2cam and sound.
So i earn average 0,66 euro per minute and other users can enter my room during the show and spend 0,11 per minute.
A lot of freeloaders,who sitting less,then 1 minute in chat.And they pay max 7 cents per minute.

I was on TTM for a while, before they changed the rules. I promptly deleted my account after that. It's too much work and too time consuming for what little pay they offer. 30% is nothing compared to some of the better phone sites like NF. The software is horrendous as well. I tried the skype software and it wouldn't let me run it with other programs and I wasn't able to do cam shows with customers who paid on other sites without shutting down the TTM software first. I am definitely not hurting without being on here, that's for sure. The only good things about the site were support was on top of their game, and the payouts were never late. If they can get a better site and better payout percentage, I'd be happy to sign back up, but for now... no thank you.

Have you ever asked about receiving a commission increase? I made an account in 2017 and gave up for a year lol. Then I tried again, I've been on there actively only since December 2018 and have received two increases and I can definitely notice the difference. It's one of my main eggs as I love the reliable payment weekly. If you've been there longer than me and worked the site and had good stats on your profile I'm sure you could get a boost. I too would have gave up on this site if I thought I'd only be sitting @ 35% forever, but like they say, "If you don't ask you'll never know."
They don't pay models and close your account when they want! Support is unreal rude. Worst site!

It’s a brazilian website. If you are not brazilian I do not recommend you to start here since the privates rates are low.. but it’s what fits for Brazilians. The exclusive chat, most expensive you can charge is 2,85 reais a minute (US$0.70) and the website takes 50%... so you are only making US$0.35 a minute in the most expensive chat and you cannot charge more than this. So if you’re american or European I do not recommend this website for you.
Traffic is decent, could be better. I have a feeling they need to advertise more.. I use this is a Back Up site. The money I make here is an extra income, I could never live off the money I make here.
Payment is amazing they wire it to you in the next day.
Support is the best I have ever seen! They have a 24/7 LIVE SUPPORT! Extremely useful. Software is pretty good too can’t complain. It’s a good website in my opinion but they need more traffic!

I made sure to have HD and used their encoder etc to have higher placement. But, because I'm not a Neanderthal, I don't get any traffic. Not one show.
good morning! shoot me an email so i can check your account. you don't have to be a neanderthal to get a show i promise

I tried logging in today, for whatever reason, customers kept leaving, even one guy i was having an active conversation with left suddenly. It didn't make sense, so i googled my streamate username. Turns out my stream was really bad. It kept freezing. And the funny thing is that it's full HD and I used the web encoder. So it seems customers leave because my stream sucks ass. So I just logged off after about an hour. No use trying. I don't know what's wrong honestly. It's just too complicated. And, I mean, everytime I log in there is a new thing. Then it's this encoder, then it's that one, then it's something else. Fuck, I'll end up spending more of my life dealing with technical issues than actually making money at this rate. It's too much stress and a waste of my expensive equipment and bandwidth. Mind you, I have the latest intel processor and logitech 920 and 20gigs fibre internet upload and download. By the way, a lot of other models also have shitty streams on streamate. It's fucking crazy. Like how? I mean if chaturbate and myfreecams can have good streams why can't streamate get their act together? I might email you I don't know.
Hi there, feel free to contact Kelly or me at
[email protected] or Skype: marianabogzoiu to do some troubleshooting on your streaming and see what is the problem.
As for the traffic complaint, if you PM me here or email/Skype me, we can check together your account and see where is the problem.
I was really hoping to make this site my main site but it just wasn't happening. I gave it a month and realized I would have to go back to a real cam site if I wanted to make any money at all. Everything about the site itself was perfect. Support was great but there was just no traffic.

The traffic is great even for a trans model like me. You get promoted on many sites in their network. There are not much requirements for the profile picture as long as it's SFW . Members are willing to pay for a long private if they're interested. There are variety of payment options which I'm totally satisfied.
The downside is support is not very quick if you send inquiry by email. Besides, I cannot upload videos and the system got freeze when I tried to record a video quite a while. Stream got disconnected and members got disconnected from the private chat sometimes. Stream at high resolution is not consistent even when I have 30Mbps upload speed. Last but not least, the commission would always be 30% unless you are on the top models, IMO this is not fair for everyone because no one is perfect and no one can keep them on the top forever,it's impossible for average models, the commission raise should base on the income models made , years they have worked with the site or the number of reviews they got or the traffic they bring to the business or maybe they could just raise the percentage to a bit higher because 30% seems to be the lowest rate in the industry now.
But eventually this is the best premium site I have tried so far. The income is promissing and most of members are nice, the site itself has so many features for the works. I would really really recommend Imlive for both professional and starter cammodels, especially transgenders who looking for a legit cam site to work with, this is the place !

Hi Jianna, thank you for the review of our site. Firstly I am glad you are happy with the traffic we send to your room. Regarding customer service I took a look back in our records and I see most of the interactions were responded to in about 1hr which I think is a pretty impressive response rate. Regarding streaming, this is a bit more complex as it depends on many factors out of our control including equipment and other sites you may have open etc. I have set an alert to come and check you when online so I can take a look. Your comments and ideas on commission I have noted and will raise them with the management team. Once again, thank you for the review and I hope we can further improve to make your business even more successful.
so i have a question.. is there only free chat or can be only private chat? and other question how is about privacy... i have terrible experiance with one site , all my privates are everywhere ...
Hi Sweet Girl ! At ImLive, you can work exclusively in free chat, exclusively the not-free-chat -- which at ImLive is called "regular chat" -- wherein paying clients enter your pvt show directly. They tend to put the girls in free chat with a higher page placement position than when you are in non-free chat. I work a mix of free chat and non-free chat at ImLive, full-time, while I split-cam on multiple simultaneous sites, full-time. Hope that helps you !
