Pros and cons
Chaturbate
Pros
- ppv, dms and livestream puts pay-per-view, direct messages, live streaming and tiers on the same account, so paid chat, live shows and a subscription do not need separate services.
- Payouts are semi-monthly or on request daily, and the daily route needs only a balance in converted tokens to start.
- Support runs on email, help centre and phone, so a phone call sits alongside written answers and a help centre.
Cons
- The payout floor of $20 to $50 sits above the fan-platform median of €43.85, so a creator ties up more money for longer before a withdrawal clears.
- The daily payout route needs a balance in converted tokens first, so a short session still waits for the semi-monthly batch.
- Explicit adult content is allowed under the terms, while Graphy prohibits explicit and pornographic content, so a creator who wants a tamer catalogue belongs on the other platform.
MyDirtyHobby
Pros
- The creator share is 25% to 50%, giving creators a defined revenue-share model.
- Payouts are available monthly or bi-weekly through Bank wire transfer, Paxum and Check (mail).
- The $50 payout minimum may suit creators who can comfortably manage that balance.
Cons
- The creator share of 25% to 50% is lower than the 100% offered by Feetify.
- The $50 payout minimum is higher than the fan-platform minimum of €17.54.
- The bi-weekly payout option is less frequent than the monthly schedule, which may matter for cash flow planning.

Questions about each
Chaturbate
What is the minimum payout on Chaturbate?+
The minimum payout is $20 to $50, above the fan-platform median of €43.85. A creator who clears that floor waits longer for the money than on the typical platform in this group. Daily payouts need a balance in converted tokens first, so the floor matters most for a creator taking money out on a regular rhythm.
How often are payouts sent, and can I get one faster?+
Payouts are semi-monthly or on request daily, so the timing is a choice rather than a fixed batch. The daily route needs a balance in converted tokens before it can be triggered, so a short session waits for the next window. Either way the money goes out on check, ACH and cryptocurrency, and the semi-monthly path carries no balance condition.
MyDirtyHobby
What creator share does MyDirtyHobby offer?+
MyDirtyHobby offers a creator share of 25% to 50%. That is lower than the 100% listed for Feetify, the 100% listed for FeetPics, and the 100% listed for Graphy.
How are creators paid on MyDirtyHobby?+
Payouts are available monthly or bi-weekly. The schedule can be selected to suit the creator's cash flow, with bi-weekly payments arriving more often than monthly payments.
