ChingamMatrimony Membership Pricing

It's a 6-month membership. Registration and submitting your profile are completely free. Once your profile is approved, you get a 24-hour free trial — your profile is live and searchable immediately, with no payment. After the trial you move to the free plan: your profile stays listed and visible to other members, but photos and full profiles are locked while you browse. A membership fee (based on your gender and caste category) unlocks full access for 6 months. You can also set up a UPI Autopay mandate at that time, which renews your membership every 6 months unless you cancel.

Three every 30 days. A connection counts per person, not per click — sending someone an interest or accepting theirs each uses one, and everything else with that same person is then free. Declining is always free and never counts against the three. If they accept, that member's photo and full profile open for you permanently — sending alone does not unlock them.

Only for members you have already connected with — someone you sent an interest to. Photo requests never cost a connection. On any plan, you also need your own photo uploaded before you can request someone else's.

Registration and profile submission are completely free, and your first 24 hours after approval are a free trial with your profile fully live and searchable. To continue afterward, the membership fee depends on gender and caste category. Female members of any caste category and Male ST (Scheduled Tribe) members pay ₹100. Male SC (Scheduled Caste) members pay ₹150. Male OBC members pay ₹250. Male General / not specified members pay ₹350. This fee activates your 6-month membership. See the table above for a full breakdown.

You register and fill in your profile details for free — no payment at any stage until you choose to activate membership. Once an admin approves your profile, it goes live and searchable for a 24-hour free trial. During or after the trial, pay your category's membership fee to activate your 6-month membership. If you don't pay within 24 hours of approval, your account moves to the free plan — your profile stays listed and visible to other members, but photos and full profiles are locked while you browse until you upgrade. At payment time you can optionally set up a UPI Autopay mandate — a standing instruction within your UPI app — which automatically renews your membership every 6 months, capped at your category's fee each cycle.

Your membership fee can be paid securely through our payment gateway using UPI (any UPI ID or app), debit and credit cards, or net banking. The optional UPI Autopay mandate for future renewals requires a UPI app that supports Autopay.

Registration, profile submission, and your 24-hour free trial are free, so there's nothing to refund at that stage. Once you pay your membership fee or a renewal, it is generally non-refundable, with limited exceptions such as a duplicate charge within 14 days. See our Refund Policy for full details.

If a renewal payment via your UPI Autopay mandate doesn't go through, your profile stays listed and visible to other members — your account simply moves to the free plan, where photos and full profiles are locked while you browse. You can renew at any time to unlock full access again.

Yes. All payments and the UPI Autopay mandate are processed through an RBI-regulated payment gateway. ChingamMatrimony never receives or stores your card, UPI, or banking credentials.
