Streamate ReviewTrusted And Solid Reputation For Over 20 Year
Last Updated on April 25, 2024
Streamate has been in the adult cam business long enough to know what it takes to be successful. While other cam sites subtly invite you to join in the fun, Streamate grabs your attention everywhere you turn, with neon-worded overlays, information tickers, and descriptive messaging. It’s aggressive, yet very effective. Model talent is broad, meaning you’ll find some models lean to the “Amateur” side, while others appear more polished. Video quality is more than sufficient.

How Streamate Differs from other sites
Streamate’s specialization is providing an enormous buffet of amateur cam girls. The site throws everything at you, with the best talent rising to the top. You’ll find every category, body type, and fetish, featured with an amateur flare.
Streamate makes payment simple and stress free. Unlike other cam sites, they feature a simple, by-the-minute charge. There are no tokens, virtual currencies or credits that may not be immediately clear.
Default video sizes appear larger than those of other cam sites, making you feel like you’re in the room with the model, which may or may not be a good thing, depending on your preferences.

Streamate.com: Using the Site
Visitors can join Model Chats for a period of time, at no cost. While reviewing the site, models exited into private mode (show) fairly quickly, stopping the free initial chat. Some models accessed from the home page were already engaged in a private show, thus, unavailable. This happened multiple times, so it is worth mentioning.
For Streamate, signup is not straightforward. Like other cam sites, you’re prompted for Email/Nickname/Password, but with a twist. In order to finish registering, you must provide a valid credit card and have it authorized. There is no gradual process from visitor to registration, to paid fun. You have to make the commitment pretty early, upon visiting the site.
Streamate Private Shows
Video quality for Streamate Private shows is excellent. There are different levels to private shows, in that even when you take a model “private,” other users can join. If this occurs, your private show includes an option to completely hide the overall chat from the users who paid to watch the private show, however you cannot kick them out completely. If you want a truly private show, you will need to select the “Exclusive” option which prevents others from viewing or accessing the show.
Features include the ability to initiate your computer’s microphone and/or engage in cam-to-cam shows. Costs are easy to understand as it’s a specific dollar amount, by the minute. If you run out of money during a private show, purchasing more credit takes only a couple of seconds to prevent interruption.
Streamate Cam2Cam
Streamates’s cam2cam feature works well, but on desktop only. The Cam2Cam feature is available on Streamate’s Private and Exclusive chats, at no extra cost. Keep in mind that for Private Chats, other users can peep in on the show, for an extra fee. If you want a truly one-on-one experience, you will need to opt for an “Exclusive” chat, which is 30% extra. Also note that a model on Streamate may accept or deny a cam2cam request.
Streamate.com Support
Methods of contact: Live Chat, What’sApp, email, Knowledge base, Nine phone numbers.
Streamate excels in its Support tools. While many other cam sites provide a basic support contact form, Streamate provides four contact methods and nine external phone support numbers.
Live chat responded within a minute, but subsequent replies took a little longer as the rep was handling multiple customers at the same time. Though this is true, we appreciated being able to chat with a live representative, in addition to the other options available if needed.
Streamate.com VIP Program
The streamate “Rewards” program allows you to redeem earned points that you accrue as you spend on the site. The more you spend, the more rewards you receive. For example, if you Join five Private or Exclusive Shows, you receive 500 points. Once you receive a certain amount of points, you become part of a specific level and given credits for future purchases.
Levels are Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum. Essentially the more you spend the more discounts you are given.
Streamate.com Costs
Streamate differs with most cam sites, in how it primarily charges users. The primary payment method is charging by the minute. The per minute cost is set by the model, so depending on the model’s popularity, you could expect to pay anywhere from $1.99 to $10 (or more) per minute.
Users can pool their resources to contribute to a Gold Show. You can buy “Gold” (Streamate’s currency) and a model can start a Group Show upon receiving a threshold amount from multiple users. These start at $0.99 per minute.

Editors Favorite Features
Though Streamate does not have a unique feature that stands out among cam sites, it deserves excessive praise, as a whole. This is because Streamate targets potential sources of frustration and makes them seamless. Take, for example, the site layout: its organization and navigation are seamless in that you can find what you need, when you need it, and without fail.
