3 Biggest Streamate Updates: An Even BETTER Cam Site!

Since 2004, Streamate remains to be the best premium cam site the web has to offer. With thousands of sexy cam models online day and night, ranging from up-and-coming amateurs to seasoned porn starlets, Streamate boasts one of the most diverse rosters of any major platform, with girls, guys, trans models, and couples galore!

Streamate’s premium format means customers are typically expected to initiate a pay-per-minute private show to get in on the action. This means that you’ll have the choice to engage with your favorite model one-on-one or with a couple of other lustful onlookers. But with the introduction of GOLD Shows, Streamate’s unique take on crowd-viewing sessions, this premium paragon revolutionized its platform for good.

For GOLD Shows, users pay a one-time (usually cheaper) fee for a predetermined show. This type of show relies on multiple people to tip in to reach a goal, much like in freemium cam sites like MyFreeCams or Chaturbate.

Since the addition of the GOLD show to the cam site’s bombshell arsenal, this show type has been a fan favorite and a showcased staple that continues to draw in crowds to this day.

This is how Streamate.com became Brad the cam site guys favorite of all live sex cam sites. It’s improvements like the GOLD Show that keep Streamate updated, relevant, and on top, and they haven’t stopped there. I would urge you to read our review on Streamate to see how it all works! You really are in for a treat if you have yet to join the streamate adult video chat platform.

With that said, here are three features they’ve added to the site that made the platform even better.

How Streamate Has Stayed On Top of the Leading Adult Cam Site

  1. Streamate SMConnect

In June of this year, Streamate officially dubbed their in-house web encoder, SMConnect as the official recommended method for models to broadcast, replacing their previous Adobe Flash-based encoder, SMBroadcast. Why is this important, you ask? Well, this new encoder means Streamate is getting ahead of the game.

SMConnect
SMConnect kept streamate at the forefront of technology.

At the end of this year, Adobe is officially ending support for Flash, which means any site still using this obsolete technology will, sadly, be left in the dust if they can’t find a suitable substitute. But SMConnect isn’t just a SMBroadcast replacement–it’s a full-on makeover with new features that both models and members can appreciate.

SMConnect’s interface includes a GOLD menu, listing pre-priced services that make it even easier for members to tip for what they want to see. Better yet, this new feature takes shows to a whole new level with mobile streaming. Models can now take SMConnect anywhere, even outdoors for naughty poolside sessions and semi-public shenanigans.

The addition of SMConnect to Streamate’s wheelhouse even puts an end to a longstanding drawback to the site’s previously preferred encoder, SMBroadcast. Users can now Cam2Cam from their mobile devices, opening up plenty of possibilities for naughty two-way play.

2. Messenger Mode

You’ve always been able to message Streamate’s cam models directly from their profile, but the site’s new Messenger mode takes this feature to a whole new level. Classic Mode, as the site affectionately calls its old direct messaging format, uses email-style forms and folders which make messages seem impersonal and, dare I say, corporate. So not sexy. Now, Streamate’s mobile-friendly Messenger Mode looks just like a modern chat app interface complete with conversation bubbles that make it easier than ever to keep up with the conversation…and the naughty images that it might contain, of course.

Messenger Mode isn’t just a cute overlay. It comes with an added feature: Group Message. In Classic Mode, models cannot directly message customers first. This drawback is well-intentioned in that it keeps models from spamming potential customers, but it is inconvenient.

Using Group Messaging via Messenger Mode, however, models can finally make the first move and start a conversation with multiple users at once, as long as they have been previously paying customers. This ensures that you’ll only receive messages from models you’ve frequented in the past, eliminating concerns about annoying spam mail.

Just make sure to check your messages for updates, announcements, or just because!

3. Streamate Fan Club

Nowadays, monthly subscriptions aren’t just for music and movies anymore. People can subscribe monthly to just about anything: meal kits, games, and yes, even porn. Our love for Netflix and Spotify Premium is changing the way we’re consuming media altogether. The modern consumer loves paying a small fee for a big library, and the porn industry is taking notes.

In response to the recent craze for monthly subscriptions to content libraries (i.e. OnlyFans) over one-off sales, Streamate announced this brand new feature in March of this year.

For a monthly fee of the model’s choosing, fans can now subscribe to these clubs to receive live show discounts (up to 25% off) and access to a secret stash of videos just for them! As an added bonus, fan club members will appear in the chat room with a crown next to their username, so models can easily identify their subscribers. This will definitely earn you some extra attention, guaranteed.

This is definitely a feature to watch and has been promised several updates in the near future. Let’s keep our eyes peeled and see what new, exciting ways models can reward their most avid fans.

All cam sites have two options: keep up with technology and its myriad of trends, or get left behind. Those who can do the former get to stay relevant and keep enjoying steady traffic and the resulting revenue, while sites that don’t burn out and fade into obsolescence. Considering the fact that live porn is the leading form of adult entertainment these days a lot is at stake as well.

Just this year, Streamate reported record numbers of new signups for both models and members, and while the ongoing coronavirus pandemic is partly to blame, it doesn’t hurt that the site promises regular updates to keep fans coming back for more. As we can see, Streamate is clearly determined to stay on top, giving models and members new features to keep the site fresh and interesting.

Streamate.com is hardly recognizable compared to the site I joined just a few years ago, and I can’t complain. The site is now more accessible than ever, with a vibrant interface that’s as easy on the eyes as its models and new features that everyone can enjoy. If you told me that this is a site dating all the way back to 2004, I’d have a hard time believing you.

While many sites like Streamate have tried to replicate their success nobody since has made such a big impact in the premium adult cam site space. Rampant TV is the recent imitation of Streamate with channels & live videos.
