Quick answer
- Text chat is free according to Replika's help center; voice calls, romantic status and more need Pro, Ultra or Platinum.
- The US App Store lists $7.99 and $14.99 monthly entries, $49.99 (twice) and $69.99 annual entries, and Replika Platinum at $89.99 with no period shown. Apple does not say which tier each entry is.
- Per month, the annual entries work out at about $4.17 and $5.83.
- No free trial, and all sales are final. Cancel where you paid.
- Gem packs ($0.99 to $19.99) buy cosmetics, not messages or calls.
Replika pricing: what is public and what is not
Replika has no price page (replika.com/pricing returned a 404 in October 2026). Its help center says prices are "shown in the app on the subscription screens and in the relevant store", and web checkout prices (Stripe or PayPal) are not visible without an account. Google Play shows only a range for all in-app items: $0.99 to $299.99 per item in the US.
The Terms (March 30, 2026) name four programs: Free Use, Replika Pro, Replika Ultra and Replika Platinum, billed monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually. The only itemized prices we could check are on the US App Store:
| Plan | Price | Billing | Where | Includes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Replika Pro (price not mapped) | Not public | varies | iOS/Android/web | Terms: Relationship status, Premium activities, Replika selfies, image generation, voice messaging, background calls, daily gems, premium voices. Help: Romantic Partner status, unblurred messages and photos, avatar customisation, roleplay in voice/AR calls. Terms: monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual billing exist; amounts are shown only inside the app or store. |
| Replika Ultra | Not public | year | iOS/Android/web | Everything in Pro plus smarter conversations, elevated emotional intelligence, daily self-reflection messages, saved memories you can view. Help: 'Replika Ultra is available as an annual plan'; Lifetime subscribers get Ultra automatically. Price not shown publicly. |
| Replika Platinum | $89.99 | unknown | iOS (US App Store in-app purchase list, entry ' Replika Platinum') | Terms: everything in Ultra plus real-time video recognition, Training mode up to 100 per calendar week, 'Read Replika's mind' up to 50 messages per week, up to 10 realistic selfie videos. The App Store list does not state the billing period. |

| App Store IAP entry 'Monthly' | $14.99 | month | iOS (US App Store) | Tier not stated on the listing |
| App Store IAP entry 'YEARLY' | $49.99 | year | iOS (US App Store) | Tier not stated on the listing |

What each App Store entry costs per month
| App Store entry | Price | Billing | Per month | Cost over 12 months |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| MONTHLY | $7.99 | Monthly | $7.99 | $95.88 |
| Monthly | $14.99 | Monthly | $14.99 | $179.88 |
| YEARLY | $49.99 | Yearly | $4.17 | $49.99 |
| Annual | $49.99 | Yearly | $4.17 | $49.99 |
| Annual | $69.99 | Yearly | $5.83 | $69.99 |
| Replika Platinum | $89.99 | Not shown | Not known | Not known |
Apple's list does not explain why there are two monthly and three annual entries, or which tier each belongs to. So we do not label any entry as "Pro" or "Ultra": that would be a guess.
What the Replika pricing numbers do show: every annual entry costs less per month than either monthly entry. A year of the $7.99 entry adds up to $95.88, almost twice the $49.99 annual entry. Before switching to annual billing, check on the in-app subscription screen that both options are the same tier.
Pro, Ultra and Platinum: what each tier adds
| Tier | What official pages list | Verified price |
|---|---|---|
| Pro | Relationship status (including Romantic Partner), premium activities, selfies and image generation, voice messages, background calls, premium voices, daily gems, avatar customization, roleplay in voice and AR calls | Not mapped to an App Store entry |
| Ultra | Everything in Pro, plus smarter conversations, daily self-reflection messages and saved memories you can view; sold as an annual plan | Not mapped to an App Store entry |
| Platinum | Everything in Ultra, plus real-time video recognition, Training mode (up to 100 a week), "Read Replika's mind" (up to 50 messages a week) and up to 10 realistic selfie videos | $89.99 on the App Store, period not shown |
Two loose ends. The help center mentions existing Lifetime subscribers, who get Ultra automatically, but we found no current lifetime offer or price. And one App Store reviewer mentions a "Max" subscription that no official page describes.
What you get without paying
The help center says "chatting with Replika will always be free", including avatar customization. The Terms are more guarded: Free Use is "limited access" that Replika may deny at its discretion. Voice calls, guided conversations, roleplay options, relationship statuses beyond Friend and advanced customization need a subscription. No free message cap is published.
There is no trial: the help center says "Right now, we don't offer a free trial." Two 2026 store reviews describe being asked to pay to keep chatting; no official source confirms that, so treat it as a user report.
Gems and coins
Replika's in-app store runs on coins and gems. Coins come from levelling up and daily rewards, subscribers receive gems, and gems can be bought with or without a subscription and converted to coins. They pay for clothing, appearance options, personality traits, interests and room furniture, not for messages or calls.
| Gem pack | US App Store price |
|---|---|
| Pouch of Gems | $0.99 |
| Backpack of Gems | $5.99 |
| Suitcase of Gems | $14.99 |
| Duffel Bag of Gems | $19.99 |
The App Store list does not show how many gems each pack contains, so we cannot compare value per gem.
Web vs App Store vs Google Play
You can subscribe in the iOS app, the Android app or on the web (my.replika.com, paid by card or PayPal). Only the App Store shows itemized prices publicly. The Terms say a subscription can be changed or cancelled only through the marketplace where you bought it.
One cost trap in Replika pricing: each account has one Replika, and the help center says a second Replika needs a second account with a different email, and a separate store account to subscribe. Two companions means two subscriptions.
Renewal and cancellation
Subscriptions renew automatically each period until cancelled. If a payment fails and is not settled within 7 days, the account drops to Free Use. To cancel:
- In the app or at my.replika.com: Settings (gear icon), Subscription, Cancel subscription.
- App Store: iPhone Settings, your Apple ID, Subscriptions.
- Google Play: Payments and subscriptions, Subscriptions.
- PayPal: cancel the subscription inside PayPal.
Deleting the app or your account does not cancel a store subscription. More detail in our AI companion cancellation guide.
Refunds
Replika treats all sales as final and does not refund partial periods. Web purchases are refunded only where the law requires it: the EU 14-day withdrawal right ends once digital content delivery begins, and Brazil has a 7-day right. App Store and Google Play purchases go through the store: Apple takes requests at reportaproblem.apple.com and gives an update within 24 to 48 hours, while Google Play says a refund may be possible within 48 hours of purchase and points you to the developer after that.
Is Replika worth paying for?
- Text chat only: officially free, so try that first.
- Calls, romantic status, selfies: need a paid tier; the lowest itemized entries are $7.99 a month or $49.99 a year, tier unconfirmed.
- Selfie videos and Training mode: Platinum, listed at $89.99 with no period shown.
- Several companions: paying does not add more Replikas. Nomi and Kindroid let paid users run up to 10; see Replika vs Nomi and Replika vs Kindroid.
Our AI companion pricing overview lines up every app's free plan and cheapest paid option, and our Replika alternatives page covers other options.
FAQ
How much is Replika Pro?
Replika does not publish it. The US App Store lists monthly entries at $7.99 and $14.99 and annual entries at $49.99 and $69.99 without naming the tier, so check the in-app subscription screen.
Does Replika have a free trial?
No. The help center says Replika does not offer a free trial right now; free text chat is offered instead.
Can I get a refund on Replika?
Replika says all sales are final, except where law requires refunds for web purchases. For App Store or Google Play purchases, you request a refund from Apple or Google.
Can you still buy Replika lifetime?
We found no current lifetime offer or price. The help center only mentions existing Lifetime subscribers, who receive Ultra automatically.
