The Number of Webcam Models Active on Imlive

ImLive has around 800 online models around the clock. Most of them are females of all shapes and sizes. There are a couple of dozens of tranny and a small population (20+) of cam boys.

If you're into couple sex cams, there are around 100 online chat rooms occupied by heterosexual couples and around 20 rooms with lesbian performers.

User Interface

Imlive has an easy to use interface allowing you to trace the cam models that interest you or the features you want quite easily. The upper menu bar contains links to various sections and videos the site offer. The left bar consists of a filter allowing you to sort out performers based on a variety of parameters such as Top Hosts, New Hosts, Age , Ethnicity and Price. You also have more than 20 categories encompassing the most basic live porn niches.

Moreover, there is an advanced search tool through which you can trace the models you like and select different types of webcam chats. This search tool also enables you to trace performers according to their appearance, age, price, the languages they speak and the kinks which characterize them. You can include in your search more than one parameter to narrow the results you'll get.

Each model's thumbnail display the type of live show she's currently giving, her seniority on the site (a newbie, a top host or a porn star). A love toy icon will indicate that you can engage in interactive live chat with her.

By placing your mouse pointer on a thumbnail, you'll get a video display of the model's show in her public room. You won't be able to watch private shows in progress.

What Will You Get in the Public Chat Rooms

ImLive's public chat rooms include the model's webcam player, a chat box and buttons for tipping, buying credits and initiating 1-on-1 sex shows. On top of the webcam player, there are two buttons. One for adding the performer to your favorite list, the other for viewing her bio.

Pressing the bio button, a window will pop up on your screen presenting the model's age and sexual orientation. There are also a few about me sentences and some useful information on what turns her on. You'll see a link to View Full Profile. This link lead to an elaborate profile page which includes more details about the performer, such as her physical attributes, her cam show expertise, her kinks and her job in the real world.

Equally important, you'll see a list of the special features associated with the model, such as a links to her Discount Club and GroupCams. There are also links leading to users' reviews on her shows, the awards she won, the video contests she took part in and her picture gallery.

ImLive's Different Live Porn Chats

ImLive has a variety of show types you can watch.

Free Chat

This chat takes place inside the models' public chat rooms. Anyone can access these rooms and watch the shows including unregistered users. However, to send the models messages, you must open a free account.

Private Chat

This is where you get 1-on-1 with the performer. Unlike free chats, private chats include full nudity. The model will do most of the things you ask her as long as your requests are logical. As mentioned above, on the model's full profile page, you'll be able to learn about the special things she specializes in when giving a cam show. Many of the models use interactive toys you can control with your tips.

The first 20 seconds of all your private chats are free. What is more, you can activate your camera and engage in a cam to cam chat. There is no extra charge for that.

Multi-Viewer

This is one of ImLive's most unique features. It enables you to watch 6 public live shows at the same time. You won't be able to chat with the performers but you can pick one of them and invite her to a private chat. The paid Full Sex Mode Multi-Viewer lets you watch 6 private live shows with full nudity. This pleasure costs 3 credits per minute.

GroupCams

The GroupCams is a wonderful feature you won't find on other cam sites. It lets you invite another model to your private chats and interact with two girls at the same time. The second model can come from the first model's GroupCams friends or from the list of your favorite performers. You'll get a discount of 0.7 credits per minute for her (not including models who charge the minimum chat rate of 0.98 credits per minute)

Unfortunately, not all of ImLive's webcam models support GroupCams. On a performer's full profile page, you'll be able to find out whether she offers this feature or not.

Candy Shows

These shows are quite similar to Flirt4Free's Group Chats and LiveJasmin's VIP Shows. The model sets a tip goal and a time frame to reach that goal. Users have to pay in advance a minimum sum of credits to help the model reach her goal and promise themselves a seat at the show. The show will start only if the model's goal is met. If eventually the show doesn't take place, you'll be refunded.

Candy Shows are hot; the models will go wild especially if the users spoil them with tips. Equally important, theses shows are much cheaper that private chats. Their only disadvantage is that there aren't too many of them on the site.

Live Show Recordings

Some of the models will let you record their private sex shows. You'll see a recording icon on the webcam player. Your recordings are stored in your Balance & Activity page in your username dropdown menu. The site will let you watch your recordings at no cost for three days. After that, you'll have to pay for them. The longer the recording is, the more expensive it'll be. Unfortunately, European users can't record live shows.

Credit Packages You Can Buy

Signing up for ImLive is completely free. More than that, there are various welcome bonuses offered to you. These bonuses change all the time, so you'd better keep yourself updated.

The credit packages put at your disposal consist of the following:

25 credits at a price of $29.95
50 credits at a price of $58.95 (plus a bonus of 5 credits)
75 credits for $87.95 (plus a bonus of 10 credits)
100 credits at a price of $114.95 (plus a bonus of 15 credits)

Based on these packages, the price of one credits is around $1.17 depending on the specific package you'll choose

How Much Will It Cost to Engage in a Private Live Porn Chat on ImLive?

Live porn chats on ImLive range from a minimum of 0.98 credits per minute (almost $1.14) to a maximum of 5.80 credits per minute (close to $7.00) with the average being 2.2 credits ($2.50) per minute.

The site has models who charge higher than that with the maximum being 14.9 credits per minute (almost $15.00), but these are porn stars, like Sofia Staks, Michelle Throne and Rachel Roxxx.

Candy Shows are highly affordable. Their average rate is $0.60 per minute - ideal for users with a limited budget.

The site's filter enables you to sort models according to the type of live shows they give and according to the price they charge per minute.

ImLive's Treats

Treats are bonuses you can use to unlock premium features on the site, such as accessing the paid Multi-Viewer, Porn Star Shows and recorded shows. The site will let you choose between using credits or treats. You can also convert treats to credits. Every 10 treats are worth 1 credit.

You'll get treats on special events (e.g. holidays) and as a bonus when you buy credits and improve your membership status within the site's loyalty program.

How to Lower Chat Prices

ImLive has several options for making your private cam chats cheaper:

In all private chats, the first 20 seconds are offered for free. This gives you enough time to decide whether you want to stay with the model or leave without being charged.
Some of the models have a discount code in their public rooms. Using it before you start a private chat can save you quite a lot of money.
Most models allow you to pay for a 30-minute chat in advance and save 20% or pay for 60 minutes in advance and save 30%.
By joining a model's Discount Club, you can get great discounts on your live chats with them depending on your membership status within ImLive's loyalty program (see below).

Payment Methods

Payment methods on ImLive depend on the online payment processors you'll use to to buy credits. Generally speaking, US users can pay with the following:

Credit / Debit card (Visa, MasterCard, Maestro, JCB, Discover, Switch and Diners Club)
PayPal

European users have more payment methods available to them:

Credit/ Debit card (Visa, MasterCard, Maestro, JCB, Discover and Diners Club)
PayPal
SafetyPay
Sofort
PaySafe
PayPal
PumaPay

Streaming Quality

Streaming quality is ImLive's Achilles heel. Although in recent years, the number of HD private cams on the site increased considerably, you can still encounter quite a few standard definition live shows. All in all, a little more than two third of the site's models stream in 720p. Unfortunately, there is no hi-def category through which you can trace them. You'll have to do it manually.

ImLive on Mobile

ImLive's mobile site is responsive to Android and iOS. It contains all the functions you'll find on the PC site plus some extras like the ability to improve streaming. When you chat in portrait mode, the webcam player becomes smaller, so you can still watch the live show and write messages.

Cam to Cam Chats

ImLive is optimized for cam2cam sex. To activate your webcam, all you have to do is press on the camera icon and the mic icon in case you want to include bi-directional audio in your chat. You may choose only audio if you don't want to be watched.

You won't have to pay extra for a c2c chat beyond what you'll pay for a private chat. In addition, ImLive has mobile cam to cam, so you can enjoy live interactive video shows on the go.
