Are you a webmaster with adult sites, owner of adult social media channels, or have any traffic related to adult content? You should know about Chaturbate affiliate program as a way of monetization. Let me show you advantages, disadvantage, and proof of earnings with this established affiliate program.
A brief description of Chaturbate
In case you don’t know this site, there is a brief description. Chaturbate is a website with girls showing off on their webcams. Users can watch for free, or buy tokens to spend them in girls rooms. Girls know how to motivate guys to spend so there are contests like “Squirt every 1000 tokens”, etc. It is good to know that it is biggest cam site in the world with over 360m visits per month (according to SimilarWeb).
Chaturbate affiliate program (sign up)
Chaturbate offers webmasters and owners of adult traffic to earn commission from people they send to their website. In practice, that means that you send users to their website and if user make registration or spend money, you’ll get commission. There are two types of payout models:
Pay per free signup model
They offer $1 for every member that you send and who makes free registration. This has to be new registration (new email and username), of course. It is also good to know that $1 is for Tier 1 countries. For Tier 2 countries it’s $0.10, and $0.01 on all Tier 3. But to be honest, I don’t recommend using Pay per signup model, because there is a better way for longterm income.
Revenue share model (Revshare)
Using this model, you’ll get revenue share from all people you referred. You’ll get 20% of all users spending for LIFETIME. This is something which you can use to build passive income for many years. I’ll prove that later in this article. So in my opinion, Revshare is definitely the best way to go.
Payment method options
There are 8 payment method options right now. These include everything from checks to cryptocurrencies. Lets’ take a look at what those methods are, and what are their advantages, disadvantages, and fees.
- Check Sent By Mail
- No Processing Fee
- Note: Actually don’t see any reason to go with check as a payment method. It’s even hard to withdraw it in my country. But if you know about any reason, let me know in comments!
- Payment by ePayService
- 0.6% Processor Fee, or $0.06 on every $10.00
- Payment by Direct Deposit
- No Processing Fee
- USA Only
- Check Sent By Fed Ex
- $40.00 Processing Fee in the US, $80.00 International
- Payment by Wire

- Note: Good way of receiving money, but you have to pay with their card, or withdraw money from ATM. You can create account in their site.
- Payment by COSMO Pay
- $1.00 Processing Fee
- Payment by Bitcoin (recommended)
- $3.00 Processing Transaction Fee
- Note: This is a great option due to its anonymity. And you can change to EUR right after getting paid if you’re not a fan of crypto. To do that, you can easily get Wirex account, receive money in crypto and then change it to EUR in the app.
Proof of earnings
To show you that this affiliate program – and especially revshare model – is working, I’ll show you my modest income from there. Note that I’ve been working with them intensively for approx one year – 2017-2018. And even though it’s a long time, I still get $250-500 a month from revenue share. Let’s see what I got from them!
And to let you show how revenue share works after 2 years with not working actively on it, there’s another proof.
Maybe you’re thinking that these screenshot are nice, but it’s just a numbers that can belong to anyone. Well, I add a screenshot from my last payment from Chaturbate in crypto. Note that payment is for 14 days period (not whole month) as they pay every 14 days.
Do I recommend Chaturbate to monetize your adult traffic?
Definitely!
It’s a great way to build passive income in longterm. So if you’re going longterm, their revshare program is the way to go. I worked with them for over 3 years now and never had a problem with payments. And many people from the industry can confirm that they’re in the market for a very long time (since 2011), and they’re reliable partner.

FAQ
To be honest, noone see into affiliate programs’ system. But from my experience (and from experiences that lots of webmasters shared), they don’t shave your earnings. That’s because if someone finds out that they shave on earnings, they would lose credibility, and their affiliates.
It was’t possible few years back, but now it is! Just go to “Linking codes”, find “Go to Room (Current Top Room if offline)” option and insert room name of a model you want to promote.
It depends on the country you live in. I would recommend to talk to a lawyer in your country to be 100% sure about taxes. If you want to stay in anonymity, use crypto as a payment method.
Definitely yes, if you’re using right wallet. I recommend Wirex as it’s trustworthy, easy to use, and allow option to change money to EUR instantly!
It is hard to see no earnings for a long time. I know that. But the point is to persevere until you got some paying users. From that point, money will roll up. But it is also important to note that it is few users that make you most income. So you can have 200 signups and zero earnings, but you can also catch a spender after 10 signups and have a passive income for lifetime.
If you don’t own any traffic source (eg. adult related website or social media account), you can try porn reupload method. I wrote in-depth guide on how to do it right here: How to make money uploading porn.
Of course, I would be happy if you support my work by signing up to Chaturbate affiliate program through my affiliate link. That would mean that I’ll get 5% commission from your earnings – it’s not cut from your earnings, it’s Chaturbate’s costs.
