contents We report follow-up observations of three poorly studied AM CVn-type binaries: CRTS CSS150211 J091017-200813, NSV1440, and SDSSJ183131.63+420220.2. Analysing time-series photometry obtained with a range of ground-based facilities as well as with TESS, we determine the superhump period of CRTSJ0910-2008 as P_sh=29.700+-0.004min and the orbital period of NSV1440 as Porb=36.56+-0.03min. We also confirm a photometric period of P=23.026+-0.097min in SDSSJ1831+4202, which is most likely the superhump period. We also report the first optical spectroscopy of CRTSJ0910-2008 and NSV1440 which unambiguously confirms both as AM CVn systems. We briefly discuss the distribution in the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram of the currently known sample of 63 AM CVn stars with known periods and Gaia data.
