Hearts & Boost / 02
How Hearts and Boost work.
One-time purchases, so you can pick up just the thing you want without signing up to a plan.
Hearts
For a single action, whenever you want one — no plan, nothing to renew.
- Send a Spark — a stronger signal than a like, which makes you more visible to whoever receives it
- Unlock a chat with a match
- View more users in your recommendations
Boost
A profile boost on its own, whenever you want a bigger moment.
- Priority exposure to more users
- Available on its own, whether or not you subscribe
A few details
- The free plan covers the core experience: profile creation, recommendations, likes, matches, and starting conversations. Limits apply to some activity.
- Hearts handle individual Sparks, chats, and extra recommendations. Boost is also available as a one-time purchase, whether or not you subscribe.
- Prices are shown in the app and on the App Store and Google Play. They vary by country, so the store listing is always the accurate source.
Guidance / 03
Which one fits how you date
Free is a complete way to use Krush, and plenty of people never go beyond it — the whole loop on the how it works page is included. Hearts suit dating in bursts: pick up the one thing you want for a moment that matters, and nothing carries on afterwards. Krush Plus fits when you are dating actively and would rather not think about it — Sparks and chats become unlimited and your full list of likes opens up.
The three are not a ladder, and it is worth knowing how they fit together. Krush Plus covers Sparks and chats with matches. Boost and extra recommendations stay separate from it, which means you only ever pick those up in the moment you actually want them.
Choosing what to pay for on any dating app
Whichever app you use, two things are worth thinking about. First, whether you can buy a single feature or only a recurring plan — being able to pay once is friendlier if you date in bursts rather than continuously. Second, whether the paid features match how you actually date; extra visibility matters far less if you are hoping for a small number of real conversations than if you want to meet lots of people. Our comparison of Asian dating apps covers how different apps handle this.
Test the free experience long enough to judge profile relevance, reciprocal conversations, and dates — not only likes. Upgrade only when you can name the feature that would remove a real bottleneck, and check the current renewal and cancellation terms in the store before confirming a subscription.
Questions, answered / 04
Pricing questions, answered.
Is Krush free?
Yes. Krush is free to download on iOS and Android, and the core dating experience is free to use — creating a profile, browsing recommendations, liking people, matching, and chatting with your matches. Krush Plus and Hearts are optional, for when you want more room to explore.
Is messaging free on Krush?
Yes — once you and another member have both shown interest, you can start chatting without paying. If you are keeping several conversations going at once, Hearts let you open more of them, and Krush Plus makes chats with matches unlimited.
Can I pay for features on Krush without subscribing?
Yes. Hearts and Boost are one-time purchases for specific actions, so you can use them without a recurring plan. Hearts cover sending a Spark, opening a chat, or seeing more users in recommendations, while Boost provides profile exposure. Other benefits, including advanced preferences and the full received-likes list, come with Krush Plus.
What is a Spark on Krush?
A Spark is Krush's version of a super like. Sending one shows stronger interest than an ordinary like and makes you more visible to the person who receives it, so you are likelier to be noticed. Hearts pay for individual Sparks; Krush Plus makes them unlimited.
What are Hearts on Krush?
Hearts are a one-time purchase you spend on a single action, so you can pay for one thing without signing up to a plan. They let you send a Spark, open a chat, or see more users in your recommendations. Krush Plus covers Sparks and chats for you instead.
What is included with Krush Plus, and what is separate?
Krush Plus covers Sparks and chats with matches, so those become unlimited. Boost and extra recommendations sit outside the subscription and stay one-time purchases, so you pick those up only in the moments you want them rather than paying for them every month.
Can I see who liked me on Krush without paying?
Some of them, yes. Krush Plus opens up your full list of likes and lets you sort them in the order you prefer, which helps when a lot come in at once. Anyone you have already matched with is always visible to both of you.
What is Krush Plus, and what does it add?
Krush Plus is the name of the paid subscription. It doubles your recommendations, reveals everyone who liked you, and opens full event member lists. It also adds unlimited Sparks, unlimited chats with matches, Undo, advanced preferences, sorted likes, an ad-free experience, and the option to skip the waitlist. Boost remains a separate one-time purchase.
Do I need a subscription to try Krush?
No. You can download Krush, build a full profile, and start matching without entering any payment details, and plenty of people use Krush that way. If you do subscribe later, prices are shown in the app and on the app stores, and they vary by country.
How should I decide whether a dating app subscription is worth it?
Start with the free experience and identify the specific problem you want a subscription to solve. More preferences can help with narrow requirements, greater visibility can help a strong profile reach more people, and expanded communication can help active daters. Paying is less useful when the underlying profiles or relationship intentions do not fit you.
