Free 1v1 chat — what costs nothing, and what coins actually buy.
Almost every site says “free” and then puts a paywall in front of the conversation. The honest version is simpler: browsing, profiles and text chat cost nothing here, and coins only apply to longer private video calls.
The split, in one table
There is no trial clock and no “free for seven days” conversion trick. There are two columns, and they do not move.
| Action | Cost |
|---|---|
| Browsing the online list | Free |
| Opening a profile | Free |
| Text chat in a private room | Free |
| Instant matching | Free |
| Longer private video calls | Coins |
Why a card is not needed to look around
Paying to see whether you like a site is backwards. The list, the profiles and the first conversations are the part you need to evaluate, so they are the part that costs nothing.
You will never be asked for card details to browse, to send a message, or to keep a text conversation open. If a page ever asks for payment at that stage, it is not this site.
What coins cover
Coins exist for one purpose: longer private video calls. The price is displayed before you confirm a call, so you always know what a session will cost before it starts.
Short video calls are the sensible way to find out whether you enjoy it. You do not need to buy a large bundle to test the format.
How to keep a session at zero
- Browse the list and open two or three profiles — all free.
- Start a text conversation and stay there as long as it is interesting.
- Use instant matching if you want variety without choosing — also free.
- Only consider coins when a specific conversation has momentum and both of you want video.
Free does not mean empty
The list shows who is actually online, so it is shorter at some hours than others. A short list is honest; it is not a sign that the site is dead or that you need to pay to see more people.
If it looks quiet, the likely reason is the clock rather than the product. The evenings of the largest markets are when the list is at its longest.
Money questions
Is there a free trial that ends?
No. There is no trial period and no automatic renewal. Free browsing and text chat stay free; coins are only spent when you choose a paid call.
Do I need a credit card to sign up?
You do not need an account at all to browse and chat in text, so no card is required at any point before a paid feature.
What if I never buy coins?
You can use the list, profiles, text chat and instant matching indefinitely without buying anything.
Can I see the price before paying?
Yes. The cost of a call is shown before you confirm it, and nothing is charged silently.
