LiveJasmin (company name: JWS Americas S.à r.l.) is an adult website that provides live streaming and related services, typically featuring nudity and sexual activity ranging from striptease and erotic talk to masturbation with sex toys and full sexual intercourse.

According to Alexa rankings, it is one of the most popular sex webcam sites in the world.[3] LiveJasmin's infrastructure, developers and other staff are based in Hungary and, from 2013, Luxembourg.[3]

History

[edit]

LiveJasmin was founded in 2001 by György Gattyán in Hungary.[4][3] LiveJasmin built its infrastructure and generated content in the beginning by financing studios who were mostly operating illegally in Hungary at that time.[3]

In 2014, LiveJasmin started to advertise, producing a number of TV commercials. Two of their commercials were submitted to air during the 66th Primetime Emmys but were declined by CBS.[5]

Business model

[edit]

Customers, webcam models and third parties such as studios register with the website.[3] The payout percentage to the model ranges between 30% and 80% depending on the income of the model.[3] Most models are from Romania, Ukraine, Russia, the Philippines, South Africa, and Colombia, while most customers are from the United States and Germany.[3] In the Philippines, Eastern Europe, and Colombia, the models typically work for a studio who provides them with the necessary equipment and infrastructure and controls their work.[3][6]

In countries where sex webcamming is illegal, such as Uganda, the platform has studios and models assume legal risk.[3][7][8]
