Since the internet arrived, people have been using it to perform sex acts. Once upon a time, this was done through chat. But, thanks to advances in streaming technology, you can now watch live sex shows from basically anywhere. This is particularly exciting for fans of BDSM, a fetish covering a wide range of role-playing, bondage, discipline, submission, and domination kinks. While finding someone to play with can often be difficult and risky, BDSM cam sites allow you to explore kinks safely at home.
With thousands of cam sites operating around the world, finding the best can be a tedious task. So we’ve done the work for you with attention to the quality of the content and the cost that comes with it. Whether you want bondage cams, BDSM cams, or something a little darker, here are the best BDSM cam sites around.
What are the best BDSM cam sites?
1) CamSoda
CamSoda is one of the finest BDSM cam sites in the world, offering a wide range of performers for your viewing pleasure. It focuses on providing a mix of the most beautiful models online and absurd gimmicks. Its William Castle-like knack for marketing has helped make CamSoda a site that’s moving the industry forward. If gimmicks don’t sell you, the host of mainstream porn stars you probably already know might, including Tori Black and Dani Daniels. Of course, even without the gimmicks, they’re a world-class site. Its free video rooms let models work for tips, while special private shows let users get one-on-one with their favorites.
Other sites may provide options for models to sell personal content, but CamSoda goes above and beyond. Models can sell individual picture packs and videos or packages of content, for prices they set. Live shows, private shows, and special media are all purchased through tokens, which are in line with industry standard costs. Private shows have a base cost of 30 tokens per minute, with more popular models demanding higher prices.
What really sets CamSoda apart is fun. Models seem to be having a great time while they’re working. Sure, it’s a performance, but seeing smiles makes a difference. Also, unlike other sites, CamSoda only uses U.S.-based models.
2) Chaturbate
In the world of camming, Chaturbate is a friendly place for beginners that has evolved into one of the most full-featured kink sites around. Its video quality is stunning, the models are just as impressive, and the amount of fetish content will blow your mind. More importantly, Chaturbate is a freemium site, allowing models to do free shows for tips if they like. If you’re looking for the best in amateur BDSM camming and don’t mind digging a little, Chaturbate is our favorite place to start.
While Chaturbate lacks a dedicated BDSM section, its extensive use of tags makes finding the content simple. At any given moment there are thousands of models on Chaturbate, but the amount of BDSM streams varies. Typically, you can expect to find between 70 and 200 BDSM-themed streams depending on the time of day.
One aspect we really adore is how Chaturbate mixes up the options when viewing tags. If you’re looking at #BDSM, you’ll find everything tagged #BDSM, including solo shows, couples, men, women, and trans performers. Chaturbate also has the widest variety of kink shows of any BDSM cam site we viewed. We found pegging, breath play, impact play, doms, mistresses, and everything in between. You want a couple to be strict with each other? You can see that. Into orgasm denial? Someone is probably doing that show right now.
Chaturbate pricing is easy to understand and generous with free tipping tokens. Tokens start at 100 for $10.99 and max out at 1,000 tokens for $79.99. Even 100 tokens will take you far on the site, allowing you to interact with models and participate in their shows. Chaturbate shows are highly interactive, from spinning prize wheels to vibrators you control with tips. Chaturbate is one of our favorite BDSM cam sites.
3) LiveJasmin
Jasmin, also known as LiveJasmin, is one of the oldest streaming cam sites on the internet. Started in 2001, the site has always been at the forefront of the cam world, with numerous awards from Xbiz and Adult Video News. While you may know it best for its vanilla sex shows, Jasmin has a surprisingly robust BDSM section. Whether you’re into webcam bondage, beautiful women talking down to you, something more extreme, Jasmin has hundreds of models ready to help.
One of the ways Jasmin has set itself apart is its rigorous screening process. While many cam sites allow anyone to sign up, Jasmin only accepts models who meet its intense standards. Each model profile includes pictures, details, and what they’re into. It makes finding a model, even if they’re in a show, a breeze.
The only major strike against Jasmin is its expensive prices that are hard to keep track of. Users tip with credits, and models set their own prices. That’s fine, but Jasmin doesn’t standardize how it sells credits. So instead of one credit being $1, you can buy 27.99 credits for $35.99, 67.99 credits for $79.99, 97.99 credits for $112.99, and 157.99 credits for $178.99. It does offer bonus credits for first-time subscribers, but the whole process is a pain. And not the sexy kind.
However, once you’re in the show, none of that matters. The performers are sexy professionals who understand BDSM. From doms to subs, a host of options await.
Despite Jasmin’s high standards, there are men and women of all ages and body types to be found. Jasmin also features HD video, which is a nice touch during live shows. In addition, users can chat over two-way audio with select performers for an added fee.
Jasmin is expensive, but if you have the money, we highly suggest fulfilling your kinks here.
4) MyCams
In the world of camming, MyCams is an industry leader thanks to its vast categories and seemingly endless models. While other sites offer “fetish” sections, MyCams lets you really narrow it down to your favorites. BDSM is a vast world, and your cam site should reflect that. Search the BDSM section to see who’s working at any given time or narrow it down further with subcategories like role play, strap-on, submissive, and dominatrix.
While the MyCams website and models are different from Jasmin, the companies use the same backend and pricing. Your LiveJasmin login will work on MyCams, but frustratingly that means the prices also carry over. So you’ll be paying: 27.99 credits for $35.99, 67.99 credits for $79.99, 97.99 credits for $112.99, and 157.99 credits for $178.99.
MyCams uses the same model page setup that Jasmin does, offering background, kinks, and photos of each performer. The sheer number of performers on MyCams is often staggering. Because of this, it’s not uncommon to pull up a page and see a model that’s waiting for people to show up. These extensive model pages give you an idea of what you’re in for even if you join before a show starts.
What really sets MyCams apart are the little things, such as nontraditional BDSM categories like smoking or the wide range of models and body types you’ll find. From stunning leather-clad goddesses to mature latex grandmothers, MyCams has a little something for almost everyone. It also features HD video, as Jasmin does.
The only place its fetish content is lacking is bisexual and male content. Hopefully, it will improve in the future.
5) ImLive
While other sites may have more name recognition, ImLive is still a wildly popular and successful cam site. That’s because ImLive offers the same incredible content as the competition for a much more reasonable price.
The only negative is the size of its active BDSM and fetish model base. Currently, ImLive has 3,911 BDSM and fetish models, with around 70 to 200 online at any given moment. Given the overwhelming number of models on other sites, that may feel a little barren. Thankfully, ImLive always shows you exactly how many models are online.
ImLive shows come in three flavors: free video chat, live sex chat, and Candy Shows. Free video chats are to get to know the model and see if you’d like to go private. Live sex chats are paid for by the minute using credits one-on-one with the model. Candy Shows allow groups of users to pool their credits for a show they all watch.
On the BDSM side of ImLive, you won’t find many Candy Shows. These are more often one-on-one experiences based on your fetishes. Each show lets you know exactly how many credits per minute you’ll be paying before you start.
Credits on ImLive are simple to understand, and the site is generous with how many bonus credits it gives out. Credits cost $1 apiece and come in blocks: 10 for $10, 25 for $25, 50 for $50 and 100 for $100. However, you get bonus credits every time you buy a package of credits. There are even free videos for paying customers.
If ImLive has room to improve, it would be in variety and video quality. The kinks found here are fairly common, and the video is always standard definition. If you’re just getting into BDSM, ImLive is an affordable cam option. Just don’t expect much beyond basic mistresses and doms.
6) Bongacams
Bongacams is an unsung joy in the world of BDSM cam sites, particularly because of its odd take on kink. Unlike other sites that have a BDSM section, Bongacams’ is called Bondage. The models you’ll find under this section tend to lean more toward traditional BDSM than other sections of the site. However, they’re not limited to just bondage play. Here you’ll find costumes, vibrator shows you control with tips, and lots of role play and dirty talk.
This is another site that allows models to do a full show without requiring each user to pay upfront. Instead, many of these models work for tips, performing for whoever walks into their cam room. But beware if you’re a lurker: Many models will justifiably end their show if more people are watching than tipping. It’s OK to preview, but pay your performers.
Bongacams’ models are beautiful and creative, putting effort into costumes, games, and interacting with their clients. More importantly, Bongacams is incredibly affordable. Tokens start at $0.83 apiece and can be bought for as low as $0.05 per token when bought in bulk. For example, 1,368 tokens are just $74.99. That’s a great deal, especially if you’re just dipping your toes into the world of camming.
The downside to Bongacams is the lack of actual BDSM content. Sure, you might find it once in a while, but Bongacams’ kind is more costumes and role play than spanking and rope. We still recommend the site for new cam users, but if you’re experienced in BDSM, you may get bored.
7) BDSMCams.xxx
If you’re looking for a true BDSM cam site experience, look no further than BDSMCams.xxx. Using the same system as Jasmine and MyCams, BDSMCams.xxx isn’t cheap, but its variety and deep appreciation for actual BDSM can’t be beaten. (Pun intended.)
No matter what flavor of BDSM and kink you’re into, the site has it. In fact, this is the first time a BDSM cam site surprised us. Anal training, condoms, latex/rubber play, balloons, electrosex, medical, humiliations: The list just goes on and on. Even better, the shows actually show what is advertised, which makes sense given the highly specialized categories. After all, you can’t advertise electrosex play and not deliver actual shocks. It’s just rude.
BDSMCams.xxx uses the same pricing as Jasmine and MyCams. The good news is BDSMCams.xxx also borrows ImLive’s Candy Show idea. Rather than having to pay 2 tokens a minute yourself, groups of viewers can pool their tokens to watch a show together. This is great for saving money, though the number of Candy Shows at any given moment is small.
If you truly want to see hardcore BDSM cam action, this is your best bet. The other sites are great but tend to lean toward the vanilla side of BDSM. True kinksters should give this site a nice long look.
