The tipping model that let’s viewers watch free camgirls doing all the naughty stuff they usually did for a pay per minute rate, invented by sites like MyFreeCams and Chaturbate, is slowly finding more ground with traditional webcam sites. Slowly we see more and more webcam sites that has been working with the traditional pay per minute system for years adding features that look a lot like the “free” tipping model and that gives us a nice alternative. Also the well known webcam site Streamate.com added a cool feature that is very interesting for people like us that don’t want to pay per minute, but at the same time don’t mind to give a girl some tip if she earns it.
The feature is called “gold shows” and has a lot of similarities with free webcam sites but at the same time slightly different. So let’s see how it works; Check the webcam model homepage of Streamate here and look for the models that have a yellow / gold “gold show” button. You can’t miss them, at any moment there are several gold shows playing. Now click the model of your choice and enter her cam stream. In the cam chat, you can see the model and next to the video feed there you can see the gold show description (the goal, the duration and min gold $ to buy yourself in). In the video feed you can see a meter running every time a user sends “gold”. If the meter is full / goal is reached, the show begins and only the guys who tipped “gold” are allowed to watch. If a goal is not reached, the model has the right to stop the meter and start counting again, gold that was already tipped… will be returned to the tipper instantly.. so no show .. no pay. As you will understand, models will tease and show themselves more and more in case goals are almost reached and I have seen a lot of nudity before the show even started.
Even though this method is a little different than the tipping system we are used to, it has it’s own pro’s and it can be really fun and cheap to participate in the gold shows, probably even cheaper than tipping 😉
