With Skype transitioning to Teams, SkyPrivate is announcing new solutions to ensure its users the smoothest transition.
With Microsoft’s announcement that Skype is transitioning to Teams by May 5, 2025, SkyPrivate unveiled they’re already working on multiple alternatives to ensure its users the same seamless, premium, and private communication experiences on the platform.
For over two decades, Skype has been a cornerstone of online communication, enabling personal and professional interactions across the globe.
As Microsoft transitions users to Teams, SkyPrivate announced it remains committed to its core mission:
Building Personal-Connection adult communities—spaces where people can engage in real, personal, intimate, and erotic interactions using platforms that feel natural, like Skype and Discord.
A Seamless Transition for SkyPrivate Users In response to this industry shift, SkyPrivate shared its plan moving forward:
SkyPrivate models and members are already able to use Discord for private shows – both prepaid and pay-per-minute ones. Furthermore, the platform revealed they’ll be providing free webinars and hands-on tutorials for all those users who want to learn how to use Discord for 1-on-1 calls via SkyPrivate.
Teams free app prepaid private shows are now possible via SkyPrivate, with pay-per-minute calls on Teams free app coming soon, as well.
Telegram prepaid private shows are now possible via SkyPrivate, with pay-per-minute 1-on-1 calls on Telegram soon to come, too, the company announced.
And lastly, SkyPrivate is also evaluating a premium 1 to 1 streaming solution to enhance the user experience, although its focus remains on private, one-on-one calls.
Turning Change into Opportunity Rather than viewing Skype’s transition to Teams as a disruption, SkyPrivate sees it as the catalyst for progress.
The company is doubling down on its commitment to adaptability, security, and innovation to deliver even better solutions for its community of models and members.
“The end of Skype marks the beginning of a new era for digital communication, and we are ready to lead that transformation,” said Dragos, Chief Commercial Officer of SkyPrivate.
“We understand how important seamless and intimate connections are to our users. That’s why we are speeding up our development efforts to provide new, innovative alternatives that maintain that personal touch SkyPrivate is known for.”
SkyPrivate is actively engaging with its user community to gather feedback and ensure these new solutions meet their evolving needs.
In this respect, the company invites users to join its official Teams, Discord, and Telegram communities for real-time updates and early access to upcoming features. For more information, follow the latest updates on SkyPrivate’s News Center page.
About SkyPrivate SkyPrivate is a platform that facilitates real, personal, and intimate 1-on-1 interactions. With a strong focus on innovation and user experience, it continues to redefine how individuals connect in an increasingly digital world.
Stripchat updates models on ACH payout timing delays
Stripchat has posted a new update addressing inconsistent ACH payout arrival times, after some models reported that payments are taking longer than they used to in certain cases.
According to Stripchat, the delays are tied to external banking processing on the payment provider’s side, not to any issue within Stripchat’s own payout systems. The platform says all ACH payouts continue to be submitted on the scheduled payout day, on time and in full.
Stripchat added that fast and predictable payouts remain a priority and said the current situation is “not acceptable.” The team says it is working directly with the payment provider to understand what has changed and to restore more reliable processing.
In parallel, Stripchat says it is improving its ACH payout infrastructure by adding new processing options aimed at increasing stability in the future. While the platform cannot provide an exact resolution date due to the complexity of external systems, Stripchat says it will share a progress update within one month.
The announcement also encouraged the community to react with a thumbs up or down and continue the discussion via Stripchat’s Discord, with additional updates available on Telegram.

AdultWork Cash Vouchers add a new cash payout option
AdultWork has rolled out Cash Vouchers as a new way for users to access earnings, offering an alternative to bank transfers alongside existing payout methods. The option is designed for those who want to withdraw their balance as cash without waiting for a traditional transfer to clear.
How it works
AdultWork’s Cash Vouchers are issued through an online voucher platform. Once a payout is approved, the user receives a digital eVoucher code sent to the email linked to their AdultWork account. That code can then be taken to a PayPoint store to collect cash, with no bank account involved in the process.
AdultWork highlights that PayPoint has over 28,000 locations across the UK, many with late opening hours and weekend availability, making it easier to collect cash at a convenient time.
Steps to request a Cash Voucher
AdultWork outlines the process in four steps:
Go to the Credit Transfer section of the AdultWork account
Select Cash Voucher as the payout method
Choose a payout speed: Standard, Expedited, Fast, or Express
After approval, take the emailed code to a PayPoint location and collect the cash
Cash Vouchers are available across all payout speeds. AdultWork also notes that Express payouts are processed by the next business day, positioning it as one of the faster ways to access earnings.
Cash collection at PayPoint locations requires valid photo ID.
Why AdultWork is adding this option
AdultWork says the goal is to provide more flexibility and control over withdrawals, especially for users who prefer cash or don’t want to rely on bank transfers. With multiple payout speed options and widespread PayPoint coverage, the platform frames Cash Vouchers as a practical addition to its current payout lineup.
