Virtual Strip Clubs: Everything You Need to Know

The used panty marketplace

It was only a matter of time before everything in this world went virtual. From VR driving games to VR dating and now, virtual strip clubs. Covid-19 sparked the rise and popularity of these virtual online dance clubs. As businesses shut down, people’s need for sexual arousal, satisfaction, and entertainment only grew. In the absence of in-person strip clubs, the world of virtual strip clubs was born.

If you’ve never received a virtual lap dance or watched attractive women, men, and characters dance on stage through your computer screen or VR set, you don’t know what you’re missing. Virtual strip clubs combine convenience and sex appeal to deliver a sexually satisfying experience in the comfort of your home. Keep reading to learn everything there is to know about virtual strip clubs including where to find the best, how to get started, and how much it’ll cost you.

What is a Virtual Strip Club and How Does It Work?

There are two types of virtual strip clubs – those that involve real-life dancers and those that are hosted in the metaverse using avatars. Both are sexy and entertaining and both offer plenty of opportunities for making money and indulging in your wildest fantasies from the comfort of your home.

Live Stream Strip Shows

Similar to how cam models host live streams and chats on popular websites like Chaturbate, some virtual strip clubs are websites and platforms where beautiful dancers perform a seductive strip tease for a live audience. Fans and viewers are encouraged to send tips to both individual dancers and groups using convenient and secure payment methods like Venmo and Cashapp.

Each dance is themed and choreographed using music, props, and plenty of nudity. Dancers wear a variety of costumes and outfits to create an entertaining, theatrical show that keeps viewers coming back for more and tipping big! Most virtual strip clubs also charge an entry fee to each event which may range in price from $5 to $20, depending on the dancers, duration, and popularity of the show. 

Visitors can view and register for any number of shows or events on the individual platform. Once the show begins, viewers are given access to the live stream where they can watch their favorite dancers perform and interact using chat features and sending tips. Some websites even let viewers make special requests or suggestions for what the dancers do next. Ultimately, each performer is in control of their own act, but giving the audience what they want is never a bad idea if you’re looking to make money as a virtual stripper

Using an Avatar in a Virtual Strip Club

If anonymity is your game, then using virtual reality apps and platforms for stripping is your game. Here, you can design an avatar that you control, from head to toe. Using a VR headset or Oculus and body tacking kit, you’re in complete control of how your character looks, moves, and how much money you make. This is the perfect option for anyone looking to make a little extra income online without exposing their body, face, or true identity.

Not only that but designing a sexy avatar is fun! You can choose everything from your hair color and length to ethnicity, body shape, gender, outfits, and more. It also gives you the freedom to let down your guard and become uninhibited. Design an avatar that embodies all of your best attributes and add a few more you wished you had. Watching the virtual version of your sexy self dance on stage can be extremely empowering and sensual. 

Similar to traditional, in-person strip clubs, performers on most platforms need to audition for the part. This means designing and creating your character, costume, music, and persona before entering a live show and giving it your all. The website’s moderators will observe how the audience reacts to you, how you move on the virtual stage, and if your personality and avatar are a good fit. If so, you may be lucky enough to earn a spot in the regular rotation. If not, the website admins might offer some tips and advice on how to improve your performance. Most platforms let you apply or audition several times so don’t get discouraged if you don’t make the cut the first time around. Just be sure to incorporate their suggestions into your next performance.

Most Popular Virtual Strip Club Platforms

Although virtual strip clubs are still a relatively new online phenomenon, a few “clubs”, apps, and websites have made a name for themselves in the virtual world of stripping. Here are a few platforms to consider whether you want to be part of the show or participate as a paying customer.

VRChat TrippyWRLD ENT

Perhaps the most popular virtual strip club online right now, VRChat’s TrippyWRLD ENT. VRChat is a platform that allows users to create different games and virtual worlds. Here, people create avatars and use them to interact with one another. In recent years, a user named “Trippy” created their own virtual strip club where users can request and perform lap dances and other sexual favors for virtual currency and gift cards. You can also create your own strip club where your avatar dances and performs for clientele. 

While having sex for money in a traditional strip club is illegal (and considered prostitution), in the virtual world, it’s considered porn. Dancers can earn extra money for performing sex acts on their clients using the same body-tracking technology that controls their avatar’s movements. VRChat lets you set your own rates and choose a method of payment.

Sanctuary 

Sanctuary is an authentic virtual strip club that posts live performances on the 2nd and 4th Saturday of every month. Sanctuary is a hybrid club that mixes live performances with web-cam live streams. Viewers get access to quality performances and interactive conversations. The audience shows their appreciation and pleasure by buying performers virtual drinks and requesting songs. Customers can even pay for POV lapdances and make a reservation for the website’s Virtual Champagne Room.

One great thing about Sanctuary is that the dancers receive and keep 100% of their earnings and can choreograph their own routines using their own selection of music. Sanctuary is the ideal environment for LGBTQ+, BIPOC, and “fat” dancers. The platform embraces and celebrates differences and beauty from all walks of life in a judgment-free atmosphere.

Cool Cats Online

Cool Cats Online prides itself on being the kinkiest, wildest, and most playful virtual strip club you’ll ever attend. Visitors are transported to another world of sexy fun during each 2-hour show. Many of the performers are former dancers at the infamous Hollywood Cheetah’s Strip Club. Similar to Sanctuary’s all-inclusive atmosphere, Cool Cats Online showcases some of the most beautiful and powerful women of color on the Internet. But Cool Cats Online welcomes women of all ethnicities and walks of life. 

Another unique feature of how this virtual strip club is run is the emphasis on community and comradery. Instead of pitting dancers against each other (which is a common theme of in-person strip clubs where owners and managers are looking to make top dollar), Cool Cats focuses on bringing dancers together, supporting one another, and sharing the fruits of their labor. 

Dancers come together and collaborate to select a certain theme for each show. Some playful examples include Spring Break, Geek Luv, and even birthday parties for certain club members. The performers then create choreographed skits, routines, and costumes surrounding this theme. Dancers often perform together in groups and audience members can tip them collectively or individually. To add to the fun and encourage viewer involvement, some performers will tell embarrassing stories, share naughty secrets, or even take shots of alcohol. Cool Cats Online is described as a comical, supportive, and sexy community. 

Tickets to each performance are sold in advance for $6.66 which doesn’t include tips for the dancers. The website also lets fans and followers access previous episodes at any time for just $10.

The Benefits of Virtual Strip Clubs

Despite their bad reputation, in-person strip clubs offer some positive benefits for both patrons and dancers. Performers get the opportunity to make a decent income while also exploring their sexuality and sensuality. It’s also an empowering experience for many dancers. Patrons are treated to a safe, personalized experience that provides sexual arousal and entertainment at a small cost. 

When the Covid-19 pandemic hit and so many strip clubs and entertainment venues were forced to close their doors, it didn’t take long for the Internet to fill in the gaps. Virtual strip clubs allow dancers and performers to still make money doing what they love and viewers to experience the type of sexual display they enjoy most. 

Here are a few more benefits of virtual strip clubs that explain why this new, digital phenomenon isn’t going anywhere fast. 

Convenience 

Let’s face it. The only thing more convenient than paying a few dollars for an in-person strip tease is enjoying a live show in the comfort of your home. Virtual strip clubs are convenient for both performers and viewers. 

Viewers can choose the type of show they want to watch and when they want to watch it. Clients aren’t limited to the hours of an in-person club or which dancers are on rotation that evening. There’s no shortage of virtual strip shows and live streams being hosted online at any given time. 

Once a viewer finds the show they want, they can enjoy every aspect of it in privacy. That means wearing comfortable clothes (or none at all) and letting their hands wander. In-person strip clubs have a lot of rules and regulations to keep dancers safe (more on this in a minute). Patrons aren’t allowed to touch or approach dancers unless they’re paying for a personal lap dance. When you watch a virtual strip tease, although you still can’t touch the performers, you can at least touch yourself

But the benefits of virtual strip clubs aren’t just for the viewing audience. There are plenty of reasons performers prefer the virtual world of stripping to real life. And convenience is one of them. For live steam strippers, gone are the days of commuting to a club every night or dealing with overzealous clients that make you feel violated or unnerved. In the virtual world, you can simply close the camera, deny a viewer access, or end the show. There’s also much less risk of being violated since your audience can’t physically touch you. 

For those performers that choose to create an avatar, the convenience goes beyond just performing in the comfort of your own home. You don’t even need to dress the part! Say goodbye to those uncomfortable heels, g-strings, and pasties. As long as the character you create is attractive, captivating, and unique, you can succeed in the world of virtual stripping. Just be sure to practice your moves and choreography, since those are the features that will stand out most to both website admins and your loyal fans. The better the show you put on, the more money you’ll make.

Safety

Virtual strip clubs are much safer than in-person venues for obvious reasons. There’s a screen dividing you and the audience, with no way for them to bridge that gap. Now, dancers can perform without reservation or fear over a client getting too “handsy” or aggressive. In addition, there’s no risk of contracting any sort of disease or illness, which can happen. In a world where health and safety are top priorities, virtual strip clubs offer peace of mind for all those involved.

Anonymity and Privacy

Both performers and patrons at strip clubs have their reasons for remaining anonymous. Some people are embarrassed by how often they frequent strip clubs, while some performers don’t want their friends and family to know what they do for a living. If either of these describes you, engaging in virtual strip clubs could be the solution to your problems.

As a viewer, no one ever has to know your true identity. You can safely conceal yourself behind a screen and screen name. That means frequenting as many virtual strip clubs and shows are your heart desires (and your wallet can afford). Dancers that want to make some extra money but are hesitant about performing in front of large crowds or exposing themselves publicly can take advantage of these virtual clubs. Creating an avatar that represents your personality is probably you’re the safest bet but you can also host live stream shows using elaborate costumes and props that conceal your identity. 

Personalized Experience

With countless virtual strip clubs flooding the Internet and gaming world, there’s plenty of variety to choose from. That means viewers can select the type of show they want to see and when they want to see it. They can choose different characters, themes, and individual shows or those showcasing a group of dancers. Now, clients can create a personalized experience catered to their specific preferences and fantasies instead of a generic show performed at specific or limited times.

Dancers can also create an intimate atmosphere that represents their personality. Choose different backdrops, props, costumes, and settings. With a little creativity and planning, you can set the stage for countless epic performances that bring in major revenue.

Quick Tips for Succeeding as a Virtual Stripper

If you’re reading to break into the naughty and lucrative world of online stripping, here are a few quick tips for success.

Choose the Type of Performer You Want to Be

The first thing you’ll need to do in order to break into the business is choosing the type of platform you want to perform on. Are you comfortable showing your face and performing for a live audience that can see, hear, and interact with you? If so, live streaming or even web-camming may be the right avenue. On the other hand, if you’re more comfortable letting your sexy avatar do the dirty work, you may want to opt for a traditional virtual strip club that is hosted completely in VR for both you, the performer, and the audience. 

Get the Right Equipment

Once you decide the type of virtual performer you want to be, you need to get your hands on the right equipment. Virtual dancers using an avatar will need a VR headset and body tracking kit to bring their character to life on screen. Performers stripping in real-life may require even more equipment like a tripod stand, ring light, quality webcam, costumes, makeup, and props. Figure out your overhead costs and what you plan to charge before hopping on that virtual stripper pole.

Engage with Your Audience

Every good entertainer knows how important it is to interact with and engage your audience. And this couldn’t be more true than when discussing stripping – both in-person and virtually. Your tips are based mostly on your ability to connect with your audience. That means making plenty of eye contact, giving them individual attention, and offering more personalized, hands-on services. 

When you join a virtual strip club, you need a big personality and a persona that is impossible to ignore. You also need to flirt, chat with, and engage your viewers using plenty of variety, costumes, props, and games. In many cases, the more outlandish and naughty, the better. Offer something that no other dancers or performers are doing. This alone could help you stand out from other strippers on the same platform and start earning more loyal followers and even bigger tips.

Collaborate with Other Performers

In life, they say to keep your friends close and your enemies closer. In the world of virtual stripping, turning to your competitors for not only inspiration but networking opportunities could be a game changer. Just take Cool Cats Online for example. Their entire platform is based on collaboration, support among dancers, and group shows. Find other avatars and performers online that fit your same style and personality. Ask about collaborating for a special event or show. Not only will your fans flock to see you perform alongside another sexy stripper but you’ll gain exposure to an entirely new audience. This means more opportunities, money, and notoriety.

Promote Yourself

Last, but not least, you need to get your name out there if you want to succeed as a virtual stripper. And the best way to do this is to promote yourself on social media. With over 4.7 billion users, social media gives you access and exposure to the largest pool of potential viewers. Create social media accounts for your virtual stripper characters and post regularly. Respond to your follower’s comments and answer their questions whenever possible. This shows them how attentive you are and increases the likelihood that they’ll follow your link (which you should place in your bio) to view one of your exclusive strip tease shows.

Explore the Wonderful and Exotic World of Virtual Strip Clubs

If you can imagine it, the Internet probably has it. Instead of frequenting your local strip club where you’re battling crowds, exchanging dirty money, and dealing with aggressive customers, why not become a virtual performer in a safe, clean, and profitable virtual strip club? 

Now, more than ever, there are countless ways to make money online and in the comfort of your own home. If you’re not willing to set up a webcam and stream yourself dancing half-naked on a pole, you don’t have to. You can create an attractive avatar that represents your physical appearance and personality. So, what are you waiting for? Start building your virtual stripper persona now and get ready to entertain the masses while filling your pockets.
