Cam Site Payout Rates for Studios in 2026: Every Major Platform Compared

·StudioOS Team

Every dollar your studio earns passes through a cam site first — and each platform takes a different cut, pays on a different schedule, and uses a different token-to-cash conversion.

Understanding these numbers is the foundation of your financial model.

How Cam Site Economics Work

A viewer buys tokens, tips or pays for a private show, and the tokens convert back to real money at a fixed rate.

The gap between what the viewer pays and what the model/studio receives is the platform's commission (typically 40-60%).
