How does Chaturbate compensate its performers?

Chaturbate compensates its performers primarily through a token system. Viewers purchase these tokens from the website and use them to tip performers during their live broadcasts as a form of appreciation for their performance or to request specific actions. The value of these tips can vary depending on the amount tipped by the viewer. Performers can then cash out these tokens for real money, with Chaturbate taking a percentage as a commission for providing the platform and payment processing service. Additionally, performers can earn money through private shows, where viewers pay tokens per minute, or through other monetization features such as selling videos or photosets, receiving “offline” tips, and running fan clubs within the site. The exchange rate between tokens and actual currency is set by Chaturbate, allowing performers to receive a predictable amount for each token they earn.
