Free and Hiki Premium
Hiki is free to join, create a profile, match and chat. Hiki Premium is an optional subscription that adds:
- ID verification and a verified badge, which builds trust in your profile;
- richer profiles where you can define your neurodivergent traits and support needs;
- seeing everyone who has liked you;
- Sparks to get noticed faster, plus boosts to skip the queue;
- browsing profiles in other cities;
- video messages and audio or video answers to prompts.
Hiki does not publish Premium prices on its website; the current price for your country is shown in the app before you buy.
Is Premium worth it?
- Start free. The core — matching, friendship or dating signals, chat and the community feed — costs nothing.
- Verification is the strongest reason to upgrade. A verified badge reassures other members, many of whom are cautious about scams.
- Browsing other cities helps if you are moving or open to long-distance friendships.
Cancelling
Premium is billed through the App Store or Google Play and renews automatically. Cancel it in your store's subscription settings; deleting the app or your account does not stop billing. Check the renewal price before confirming, since introductory offers usually apply to the first period only.
