Number of Web Cam Hosts
The number of host is around 44,600, but this really is estimation. That being said, many are offline or not active at all, and some days there will be no more than 300 relevant adult performers online.
Cost
CamContacts varies a lot in price, because it is the hosts who really decide how much they charge. It is a bit difficult to evaluate costs with so many options from so many countries, but competition is healthy for consumers because the prices here are very low. And believe me: When I say low prices, it really is an understatement. On Cam Contacts you can easily find video chat rooms for as low as 0.65 per minute, which is literally unheard of. But before you jump at the opportunity, I have to play the devil’s advocate for a second here and confess that while I like this website, its quality could be enhanced. You can and will find decent and even excellent webcam shows with HQ cams and reasonable audio, but you’ll also run in to a lot of less-than on the way. That’s what happens when cams are open for anyone to join. You get fun, interesting results and unbelievable prices, but the system is not without its risks. Here is a rough estimation of cost, but really, it’s just a sample.
- Private chats 1on1 with a women that define themselves as “Not So Shy” is:
- Public Chat - $0.65 - $2.50 per minute
- Private Chat $1.10 -$ 4.99 for each minute.
- Instant Action Cam Shows (the name kind of gives it away)
- Public - $1.70 - $3.00 a minute
- Private - $2.00-$5.00 for a minute
- Group Live Shows - This means that 3 performers or more appear on the screen
- Public - $2.50 - $3.75 per minute
- Private Show - $2.50 - $3.75 per minute.
- Two Women Performing on 1 Webcam/li>
- Public Sessions - $0.85 - $3.00
- Private Shows -$ 1.29 - $4.50
For more specific prices the only suggestion I have is that you go to actual live chat rooms and get a better estimation. There are so many options that trying to make an average is really a guess at best.
Credit on CamContacts.com
This is a good time to explain a bit about the strange payment system they have on CamContacts. Here you don’t need to buy credit (AKA tokens) that you later on use to purchase live show minutes. Here the cost of each show is deducted directly from your bank account, once you give in your billing info that is. This is called "pay-per-minute" billing, but really all it means is that you’re paying for each show according to its length and price. The advantages are that you don’t have to pause in the middle of a show to get more credit and a lot let hassle. You will also get charged for the amount you top up your Gift Box with, and that’s it. It’s quite transparent and reliable.
Paying for Cam Videos
Unlike other websites, where recorded videos are free or cost significantly less than webcam shows, on CamContacts they can be a bit expensive at times. Sure, you can still find plenty for rock bottom prices, but I am telling you in advance: You better check before you start watching. Recorded videos of public sessions are between $0.60 and $4.80 per minute and for private videochat sessions you can be paying anywhere between $0.78 and $6.00.

Live Cam Contacts Leads the Mobile Chat Revolution
Mobile cams are the next big thing, there is just no arguing this point. Many video chat websites are now advertizing their so called iphone chats and Android webcams, but in many cases it’s not much more than false pretences. Let’s be honest: Any site that can be seen on PC can also be browsed using mobile phone, but this doesn’t mean it has convenient mobile platform. Only a few of the major adult cam communities actually took the leap and made themselves fully cell phone/tablet compatible. Guess what? CamContacts is one of them. The online web cameras can all be seen in excellent streaming quality and the right size from any smartphone and while I for one wills tick to chatting on my computer, it’s great to know this website is moving forward and staying updated.
Video streams and the hosts’ photos are very polished and professional.
Features a small selection of hand-picked professional models.
Only a few selected models on this site at any given time.
If you’re used to seeing dozen upon dozen of models to choose from, this site’s selection seems underwhelming.
Bottom Line
If you don't mind amateur graphics and a relative lack of interesting features, CamContacts is a good choice. The only edgy thing about it is the mobile webcams, but all the basics are covered with proficiency.
