ImLive Reviews 12

This site is a definition of modern slavery.
After trying it for a couple of days as a host, it left a really bad taste. First of all, the pay share is an absolute joke, 12% in general, 27% if you're lucky, and that's the lowest of all sites. Secondly, it's like they gather all the weirdos on the internet, they allow members to treat hosts badly, in fact they will encourage you not to ban someone from your room if they insult you but the worst of all, they don't care what the members are saying as long as they pay. I reported a member for saying vile things he would do to little girls and they acted like he did nothing wrong and in fact threatened me that I might suffer consequences if I kick him out of my private room. So this site exploits vulnerable hosts, that are desperate to make a few cents, because they literally pay nothing and by allowing members to treat the hosts badly it has managed to raise all the perverts and bad men on the internet there. I'm definitely closing my account and hope to never encounter this kind of treatment ever again, but this site needs to be closed, I wouldn't be surprised if some of the hosts working here are doing it against their will, given the circumstances.

Imlive is the worst videochat platform I have ever worked with. 15+ Years of Experience Speaking

After more than 15 years in the adult industry, I can confidently say this is the most exploitative and discouraging platform I have ever worked with.

1. Extremely Low Pay (12%–27%)

The payout percentage are 12% and 27% — far below industry standards. For the exposure, reputational risk, and emotional labor involved, this compensation is simply unacceptable.

2. No Real Control Over Customers

Models are not truly free to refuse members. If someone has previously been rude or inappropriate, declining them is discouraged. Blocking a user requires written justification and meeting character minimums, which makes protecting yourself unnecessarily difficult. The pressure is to tolerate behaviour that should not be tolerated.

3. Permanent, Easily Abused Review System

Anyone can leave a review within two minutes of entering your room, and it remains permanently on your profile. This creates enormous vulnerability to bullying, coordinated down-rating, and retaliation.

There are long-time hosts who send their regular members to intentionally rate new or competing models poorly. Whether officially acknowledged or not, the system allows this behaviour to happen — and models have no recourse.

The psychological pressure of knowing your income depends on reviews that can be weaponized is extremely damaging and absurd.

4. “Hall of Fame” & Ranking Manipulation

The Hall of Fame and ranking system are heavily influenced by some performers artificially boosting their position and winning awards with fake accounts with referral 70%-100% structures recycling money rather than organic success.

This does not create a fair or transparent competitive environment. This creates an uneven playing field for genuine performers.

5. Chargebacks Still Exist

Models can complete work and later lose their earnings due to chargebacks. The financial risk is placed entirely on the performer.

Member Quality & Platform Culture

In my experience, the overall member quality has been extremely low compared to other platforms. Many users lack basic cam etiquette or awareness that they are interacting live with a real human being.

Rude, impatient, pushy behaviour is common. Most enter explicit immediately, act entitled, and behave as though models owe them something. There is very little culture of respect.

Recently, there has also been a noticeable trend of users requesting real-life meetings, fully aware that models are prohibited from sharing external contact information (Twitter, Snapchat, etc.). This puts performers in uncomfortable and stressful situations while exposing them to review retaliation when they refuse.

Most members behave as if models are possessions they have “trained” over years — not independent professionals.

Model Forums & Internal Environment

The model forums are filled with reports of constant technical problems and performers sitting in free live chat for hours — sometimes days — with no traffic while streaming publicly for free.

The atmosphere is discouraging and demoralizing.

This platform places the financial, emotional, and reputational risk entirely on the model while offering low pay, minimal protection, and a review system that can easily be abused.

After 15+ years in the industry, this has been the most disappointing professional experience of my career.

It used to be good, but now, the absolute worst website!!!! I would not recommend it, unless you want to waist your money!!!!!

they block models without reason often.their models get scammed with 12% cut without knowing it and at best 27%. Strongly recommend to avoid this site.

First of all expensive too buy credits, Secondly if you're buying credits they demand ID from you,and if you refuse sending passport, drivers license etc.they refuse you too use your profile...

Pretty okay bonuses, for members.

I started here in 2011, back when they used to take a significant chunk of performers earnings. I could have bought a house with the cut they were taking, it was that big when I calculated their take based on my earnings with a percentage equation. Imlive has a really interesting history, the owner first started a dating site and when that didn't work out, he made it what it is today. The owner also owns a gallery, like an expensive fine art gallery, made by making money off the performers that were scraping by to feed themselves. I lost respect for the man who started this company. They got "better" over the years and I have yet to find another site with a model representative like Chloe. They helped my success, legitimately, so I am giving four stars. They were one of the first to debut mobile streaming which is a feat for the technology we had. I believe the site was using flash so it was very problematic. This is from a performer perspective so a customer may have a different point of view.

This site is full of Romance Scammers. They will use a dating site to get you to join and then get you to use messaging app to talk to them. They start asking you to do shows with them cause that is only way to see/hear them since their phone us broken. They get mad when you say you won’t spend money or ask them questions about things they shared.

Im not sure how to explain it just that im finding the site to be in bad taste, if there is a section for weirdo customers and models then they should keep out of free chat that is public and do their weirdness in private. im also a paying customer I understand a customer cant put their messages on public but the models can. I know this because i get those alot and at other times I see the model typing but nothing up on the screen. Its such a turn off listening to customers weird fantasy usually i chalk it up they are stoned or drunk but when the models go along with the sickness of vulgar it could be golden shower or cross dressing to transexual etc. shouldnt be in free chat theres sections for homosexuals bisexuals and trans please dont push your freakiness in regular population. I would ignore the customers but i tip and private these models too but i do the nasty in private like a gentleman. Its just a turn off all the models need to do in private message that customer I dont want to hear their werid fantasy and the have a model respond positive to filth Do it in class and private. i dont the customer its the models should know better.

I find whats going on here very distasteful from here also as in the previous site just happens that girl is in both sites After I complain to her she started shouting im starving and you never spend money and its the truth you are ugly. Then she gets her chat friends to start saying mean things If she doesnt stop her tactics IM GETTING RID OF MY ACCOUNTS BOTH OF THEM
