How to Cam2Cam on Chaturbate

Last Updated March 12, 2024

Since its new cam-to-cam feature was launched, it has become fairly easy to c2c on Chaturbate. You'll no longer have to open your own broadcast to let other models watch you, and you'll also no longer have to just trust them to do so.

Visit Chaturbate.com

To start cam2cam, click the Cam To Cam link below the stream you're watching. It matters not if you're currently in the open chat or in a private chat with the model, it will work either way. It will not work, however, if you're on the mobile version of the site.

Starting cam2cam on Chaturbate

If this is your first time starting cam-to-cam on Chaturbate, a user agreement window will pop up, warning against any criminal use of the feature (like showing someone who's underage in your broadcast). Click I Agree to continue.

A window will then open and you'll be able to see a preview of your stream. Chose your webcam and the resolution you want to stream in. You can stream to the model in up to 1080p HD should your webcam allow it.

Preview of your Chaturbate c2c stream

Once you're done, click Start Cam To Cam. You'll start streaming to the model, and only to her - no one else will be able to watch you, even if you stream in the free chat. You may be prompted to give Chaturbate permanent permission to use your webcam and microphone, as some browsers only give the site temporary permission. You won't be able to broadcast if you don't do so.

Chaturbate cam2cam chat in the free chat

Once you start streaming, a small window will open, showing your broadcast. You can freely move this window around, and it even has a button you can click to mute or unmute yourself.

The model will get a chat notification that you've initiated cam2cam, but she has to agree to watch it. To that end, you will most likely have to agree on some sort of price for her to do so, most likely in the form of a tip or a private show with a minimum duration. You'll also need to have some amount of tokens in your account to even use the feature at all, even if the model is generous enough not to put a price on it.

When the model is not watching your broadcast the webcam icon on your stream preview is grey (as highlighted in the picture above). Once she starts watching you, the color of the webcam icon will turn to orange. This way you know when she's watching you, as she has to actively do so for the icon to stay orange. You'll also get a message in chat, which only you can see, that says that the model is now watching your webcam.

While cam2cam on premium chat sites may be more streamlined than on Chaturbate's freemium platform, most of them allow you to broadcast in the open chat, and some even charge you additional payment per minute for the feature regardless of the model's desire.

Chaturbate's c2c allows you the most flexibility and freedom while keeping things simple and straightforward. We may have had to wait quite a bit of time for the site to implement this ubiquitous feature, but it the end result was worth the wait.


Important Things to Know About Chaturbate

How is Chaturbate's Mobile App?

Chaturbate, and most websites like Chaturbate have functional, if minimal mobile apps. The homepage has some tags/tabs on the top menu, which is helpful, and the Options button to narrow down world regions and HD cams. The ability to pick HD cams is quite useful, and not available on all cam sites. After you've selected to enter a cam room, you'll be able to send messages in the text box, but that's it. There's no cam2cam feature on mobile. You can, however, select the bottom right icon to make the pic go full screen.

How to Sign In to Chaturbate?

When you've entered the site, select the member icon on the top right of the main page, which has next to it Log in, Sign Up or Send Feedback options. After the first time you use your login credentials, the site will remember them and will have them ready for your next visit to the site (If you log in from the same computer/mobile/IP address).

How to Join the Free Chat?

Just pick a room and either click or tap the picture to get into the room! You'll see the main stream on the left, and the user's chat where you can send messages on the right.

How to Join a Private Show?

Once you have chosen a room and entered it, notice that below the live stream are three links in blue — Get More Tokens, Cam to Cam and Start Private Show. Select the bottom and third link and a pop up will show you how much per minute the model requires, if she has a minimum of minutes (Also called Block Sessions), and you'll see a message saying she allows free show recordings, as well. If this all sounds good to you, select OK and start your private show.

How to Open My Cam During a Private Show?

Great question, as not many sites offer this option. From the three options mentioned above, choose Cam to Cam, and then select from the pop up your camera and resolution. Also, Allow Chaturbate to use your cam and mic, which is another pop-up. That's it. Your cam will turn on, and only the model will be able to see you.

How does Chaturbate work?

Chaturbate is a freemium live cam site. Models stream live from around the world and you can go into any cam room and watch the action completely for free.

There are also Spy Shows, which are other private chats that you can spy on for a fraction of the price of a real private chat. You purchase token packages if you so choose, and then pay for said services.

How to use Chaturbate?

Depends on how you like to spend your time on live cams. If you enjoy moving from free room to room, just select which rooms you want to enter and enjoy. If you prefer to have 1on1 sessions then you need to register and purchase a tokens package to use this paid service. It's up to you.

    Good

  • oneeye

    It's hard to get the popular girls on Chaturbate to go private. So I always go to like the 4th page of online models and start there. They are usually more happy to see you, and are more ready to accept a private show request.

  • voyeurboy

    I'm kinda shy and prefer to stay anonymous, so I want to know, is it possible to use your webcam so you can see the girl but she doesn't see you?

    • admin

      Well, you can activate your camera for the performer to see you, but you do not have to point your camera at your face. You can point your camera at whatever you want to point it at.

  • freakydeaky

    chaturbate is one of my favorite sites, all the girls are so damn kinky, and so much cosplay too. i wish more of them would go private but they make way too much with tips in public :)

  • thebigL

    I opened my cam in a free room, tipped the model cause I'm generous type and she didn't acknowledge the tip or me in anyway. Just cause a babe will let you open your cam feed, doesn't mean she'll pay you attention

    Chaturbate could be an excellent site, but without mobile cam2cam it ranks below Stripchat and some of the other cheap/free webcam sites.

  • randorandy

    • admin

      Each model is enabled to activate or deactivate certain features. It's very possible that the performers you engaged with had their mic access deactivated for members in their rooms.

  • Jabbermack

    Fantastically brilliant-what more could you want?
