Which private video chat fits you?
Who wrote this: Bizu runs all eight brands below. This is our own guide, not an independent ranking, and it does not compare us with other companies. We wrote it to answer one question honestly: which of our sites was built for you.
Every brand here does the same thing: a private video call between you and one host whose ID has been checked, paid by the minute, with nobody else watching. The differences are the country each site is written for, its languages and whether it assumes a phone or a laptop. Start with the situation that sounds most like yours.
Quick picks
- You live in the US, UK, Canada, Australia, Ireland or New ZealandSpark: The plainest take on the idea: one host, one viewer, no audience. Its site also has the full price list in English.
- You are in Sweden, Norway, Denmark or FinlandLyn: Built around the time difference: a Nordic evening is a Latin American afternoon, when many hosts are online.
- You would rather do everything in SpanishConocer: Spanish from the first screen to the last, with a separate page for Spain in euros and CET hours.
- You will call from a laptop in continental EuropeChatBizu: Written for a bigger screen: headphones on, subtitles under the video, calls after work.
- You will mostly call from your phoneChat4Mobile: A setup guide as much as a brand: add it to your home screen, mobile data and battery tips, short or booked calls.
- You live in the Gulf, as a resident or an expatShoala: Arabic first, with an English page for expats, and a calm, conversation-only tone.
- You are in Israel and prefer Hebrew or EnglishMotek: Hebrew site and app, plus an English page for people who moved to Israel.
- You travel a lot or live far from homeFlight Attendants Live: A travel theme for people on layovers or living abroad. The hosts are the same as on every other brand: they are not airline staff.

What is identical on every brand
- One-to-one only. No group rooms, no audience and no random matching: you choose the host and only the two of you are on the call.
- Checked hosts. A host goes live only after an ID document check, and their photos are approved first.
- Conversation, not adult content. Nudity and sexual content are forbidden and moderated. Nothing is ever arranged in person.
- Translation. Chat messages are translated automatically, and calls can show live translated subtitles (this depends on your browser).
- No install. It runs in Chrome, Safari, Edge, Firefox or Samsung Internet. There is no store app yet.
What a call costs
There is no subscription. You buy coins and spend them only while you are on a call.
- Each host sets a rate between 180 and 300 coins a minute, which is €0.90 to €1.50. You see it before you call.
- Coin packs start at €5 for 1,000 coins. Your very first pack gets 50% more coins, up to 3,000 extra.
- The meter starts when the video connects and counts each started minute. Ringing and waiting are free.
- If a call drops for a technical reason in its first seconds, the coins for it come back automatically.
- New accounts receive 600 welcome coins that unlock with the first coin pack and expire after 30 days.
- Prices are in euros; a card in another currency is converted by your bank, which may add a fee.
The longest price table, with talk time per pack, is on Spark's pricing page.
How to judge any private video chat
Whether you use one of ours or not, these are the questions worth asking before you pay anywhere:
- Is the person on the other side ID-checked, or can anyone open a camera?
- Is the call really one-to-one, or can others watch or record it inside the service?
- Do you see the exact price per minute before connecting, and when does billing start?
- What happens to your money if the video freezes or the call fails?
- Is there a subscription that renews by itself?
- Can you block and report someone from the call screen?
- Are the rules about nudity and sexual content written down and enforced?
- Does the site say clearly who runs it, with a company name and contact address?
- Are promotional coins or "free" offers explained with their conditions?
Our answers are on this page; the company details are on the about page.
Which brand should you not pick?
None of them is the right choice if you want free random matching with strangers, group video rooms, or someone to meet in person. These are paid, one-to-one conversations with people who are paid for their time, and the sites say so.
Questions
Who publishes this guide?
Bizu, a video chat company in Portugal. Bizu runs all eight services on this page, so this is not an independent review: it is our own guide to our own brands, written to help you pick the one made for your country, language and device.
Are the eight brands different companies?
No. They are eight front doors to one platform. Your account, coins, calls and support are the same wherever you sign up. What changes is the language, the country the site is written for and the tone.
Do all brands show the same hosts?
Mostly. The hosts are ID-checked people, today mainly from Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, Honduras, Argentina and other countries. Each host can choose not to appear on a given brand, so the list you see can differ a little.
Is one brand cheaper than another?
No. Prices are the same everywhere: each host sets 180 to 300 coins a minute (€0.90 to €1.50), and coin packs start at €5 for 1,000 coins.
Is this a dating or adult service?
No. It is online video conversation only. Nudity and sexual content are not allowed, calls are moderated, and none of the brands arranges meetings in person. Every brand is for adults (18+).
Do I need to install an app?
No. Every brand runs in the browser on a phone or computer. There is no app in the app stores yet.
Are there welcome coins?
New accounts get 600 promotional coins, but they unlock only with the first coin pack you buy and expire 30 days later. They are not a free call on their own.
