• Models who stream late at night in the Americas

Features models use

Chaturbate's room apps and bots let you run tip menus, games, moderation and ticket shows (where only ticket holders see the show). You set your own private-show price. New broadcasters get a short "new" label that brings extra traffic, so plan your first week around it.

When to stream on Chaturbate

Chaturbate's busiest four hours were 10pm to 2am Eastern, with 20.8% of a day's tracked tips, and its quietest were 4am to 8am (12.8%). In the chart, each bar is one hour of the day and the dark bars are the rush hour.

A busy hour has more tippers and more rooms competing for them, so it's worth testing the hour just before the peak too, while viewers are arriving.

Saturday was Chaturbate's biggest day and Tuesday its smallest. Keep the same hours each week so regulars know when to find you. Every site's hours are compared in our best times to cam guide.

Is Chaturbate right for you?

It's a good fit if:

• New models who want big traffic and simple setup
• Trans and male models: it has the highest shares for both of any big site
• Models who stream late at night in the Americas

Think twice if these matter a lot to you:

• Very crowded: a new room can get lost without promotion
• Accounts can be suspended for rule breaks, and appeals take time. Read the rules before your first show

Not sure? Our cam site finder asks five quick questions and suggests three sites.

Watch out for

• Very crowded: a new room can get lost without promotion

Chaturbate awards and recognition

Chaturbate has won 29 site awards that we've confirmed on the organizer's own winners announcement, from Bucharest Summit, LALExpo Awards, Live Cam Awards, XBIZ Awards and XMA Awards. We only count wins, never nominations.

The AW Awards are run by AWEmpire, the company behind LiveJasmin, so we list their results for completeness but don't count them as independent site awards.

Awards for Chaturbate's affiliate program, products or business. These recognize the business side, so we list them separately and don't count them as site awards.
