HUD pricing: free Basic Membership and App Store prices by country

What a free HUD account does

Joining is free. HUD's terms of service (section 6.1) say "As a Basic Member, you are entitled to access a minimal level of the Service's features and functionality without any charge." The App Store adds "If you don't choose to purchase HUD Premium, you can simply continue using HUD for free." Neither the terms nor the store listings say whether two Basic members can message each other or how many likes a free account gets.

The terms name Premium and Premium+ subscriptions and one-off Boosts as the paid additions. Which feature belongs to which plan is not published, and HUD's help center, where plan details may sit, was not readable when checked. The HUD review covers the app itself.

Paid tier prices in five countries

The App Store item names do not match the terms. The US App Store lists Hud Premium (1 week), Premium (3 months), Diamond Membership (1 week and 1 month), the Basic, Bronze, Silver and Gold Packages and an all-features item, while the terms speak of Premium and Premium+. How the items map to the terms' tiers is not stated, and the listing gives no period for the Packages or the all-features item. Basic Package costs USD 12.99 on the US App Store, and the listing does not say how it relates to the free Basic Membership.

Prices as listed in the store on November 5, 2026. They change by country, platform, account and promotion.

Canada's and Australia's App Stores list several items at the US number in their own currency: Hud Premium for 1 week is USD 14.99, CAD 14.99 and AUD 14.99, and Diamond Membership for 1 month is USD 49.99, CAD 49.99 and AUD 49.99. The US, Canadian and Australian App Stores list Premium for 3 months at USD 69.99, CAD 79.99 and AUD 79.99, and the UK one has no such row. The UK App Store shows lower numbers for the shared items, GBP 12.99 for 1 week of Hud Premium and GBP 39.99 for 1 month of Diamond Membership. Germany's App Store lists Hud Premium for 1 week at two prices, EUR 8.49 and EUR 14.99, with no reason given. Currencies differ and nothing here converts them.

HUD pricing by country

The map picks the lowest listed row for each storefront, so weekly items sit beside items with no stated period.

iPhone (App Store) listings only. Google Play and web prices are not covered.

The euro storefronts disagree: Diamond Membership for 1 month is EUR 49.99 on the German App Store and EUR 39.99 on the Irish one. Brazil's row in the map is the weekly item "1 Semana Premium de Hud", listed at BRL 14.90 on the Brazilian App Store.

Add-ons sold separately

The terms list Boosts as one-off purchases (section 6). The App Store sells them in bundles with Sparks, which the terms do not describe, and lists Profile Boost and Photo Access, whose contents the listing does not state. Apple shows at most the first 10 in-app purchases per storefront, so other bundles may exist.

Photo Access is listed at USD 5.99 on the US App Store, GBP 5.99 on the UK one, CAD 8.49 on Canada's and AUD 8.99 on Australia's. On the UK App Store the pack of 1 Boost and 5 Sparks is GBP 14.99 and the pack of 5 Boosts and 10 Sparks is GBP 29.99.

Free trial

The terms (section 6.7) give a 7-day free trial on Premium Membership and Premium+ Membership, limited to one per account. It converts to the paid subscription unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the trial ends. The App Store text only says "Any unused portion of a free trial period will be forfeited when making a purchase of an auto-renewing subscription." No App Store item in the lists is marked as a trial, and the terms do not say which platforms or purchases carry it.

Why one item shows different prices

HUD's terms (section 6.8) say the price of Boosts and of Premium and Premium+ subscriptions "can be found in the HUD app" and that HUD may change prices at any time. The App Store text says "Prices are in U.S. dollars, may vary in countries other than the U.S. and are subject to change without notice." The US App Store page has also shown two different sets of 10 items on the same day, so an item missing from a table here may still exist.

How to cancel a HUD subscription

Subscriptions are bought through the Apple App Store or Google Play and cancelled there by turning off auto-renew (terms 6.4 and 6.7). A trial converts to a paid plan unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before it ends, and the App Store text adds "No cancellation of the current subscription is allowed during the active subscription period." Deleting the account does not cancel a subscription (terms 8.2), so the store step comes first. The guide to cancelling a dating app subscription covers the steps across apps, and how to delete your account covers the other half.

Refunds

HUD's terms (sections 7.2.1 to 7.2.3) make all charges non-refundable and credit nothing for partly used periods, unless local law requires otherwise. California residents may be refunded if they cancel within 3 business days after the free trial ends, and UK and EU residents within 7 days after it ends (14 days from the trial start). Requests go to support@hudapp.com. Apple or Google bills the subscription (terms 6.9), so the store decides a store refund request.

Android and web prices

Google Play shows only a price range for in-app purchases, "$7.99 - $149.99 per item" on its US view, and no per-tier rows. No web price was read, so HUD pricing outside the App Store is not covered here. Other apps' prices sit on the dating app pricing hub; the HUD alternatives list covers other options.
