The best online tarot services

We compared Telegram bots and web services: what one reading costs, how payment works, and what each one does better than the rest. Data checked in July 2026.

How we compared them

We walked the ordinary user's path through each service: started the bot or opened the site, asked a question, reached the payment screen and recorded the prices. Bot audiences are taken from their public statistics; for one service the figure is an estimate, and that's marked separately.

Tarotari is our own service, so we don't put it first and we list its weaknesses alongside everyone else's. Prices change: if you're reading this well after July 2026, check the current rates on the service's own site.

Telegram bots

Tarolog (TaroGPT)

Telegram bot≈31,000 users a month
Model:
Reading packs + a monthly pass
Entry:
99 ₽ for 3 readings
Per reading:
from 14.9 ₽
Free:
A daily card of the day

The most thoroughly built of the Russian-language bots: seven readers with different characters, plus the option to create your own, and control over the layout, deck and number of cards through a /flow command. Payment without storing a card or auto-renewal — set out as a separate clause in their terms. After a reading it offers three generated follow-up questions.

The catalogue is narrower: horoscopes, dreams and runes live in a separate bot, so you switch between them. No mini app and no way to save a reading as a file.

Taro Lux

Telegram bot≈4,900 users a month
Model:
A rouble balance, pay per reading
Entry:
45 ₽ top-up
Per reading:
15 ₽
Free:
A free trial reading at the start

The clearest pricing on the market: a balance in roubles rather than tokens, with the price shown on the card of every spread. Its own Slavic deck instead of the standard Rider–Waite — a rare bit of visual differentiation. A finished reading can be saved as a PDF.

Tarot only: no astrology, no dreams, no numerology. No extended conversation with follow-up questions about a reading you've already had.

Taro Seychas

Telegram bot
Model:
An internal currency (crystals)
Entry:
119 ₽ for the starter pack
Per reading:
roughly 75–119 ₽
Free:
Starter crystals

The best retention mechanic: you can see how many readings are left until a free top-up, with a button to claim the reward immediately. Packs are described by what they're for (“for a first reading and a couple of follow-ups”) rather than by quantity. Photographs of real readers on the front page.

The highest price per reading among the Russian-language bots. A faster response is sold separately — meaning some users are waiting longer on purpose.

Magiya: tarot, divination, rituals

Telegram bot≈700 users a month
Model:
Credits at 1 to 1 with the rouble
Entry:
100 ₽
Per reading:
50 ₽
Free:
A starting balance for exactly one reading

The most transparent accounting: before every charge it shows your balance, the cost and exactly what you asked, with a button to change the question. You can switch payment currency mid-flow. A wide catalogue, from horoscopes to reading coffee grounds.

A small audience. It asks three clarifying questions before a reading — that raises the quality but lengthens the path to an answer.

Tarotari (the English-language bot)

Telegram botestimated ≈44,000 users a month
Model:
No paywall encountered during onboarding
Entry:
Per reading:
Free:
A reading straight after your question
Languages:
English, Russian and others

The shortest path to a first result on the market: one greeting, your question, and the spread with its reading appears — no menus, no settings. It understands voice messages and picks up the language you write in.

Built for an English-speaking audience; it picks up Russian as it goes. No mini app, no astrology and no history of readings.

Web services

tarotap.com

Web service≈220,000 visits a month
Model:
Subscription + an internal currency
Entry:
subscription, with a trial period
Per reading:
Free:
One AI reading a day
Languages:
19+ languages

The largest of the web services: 19+ languages, six AI personas with different reading styles, layouts that adapt to the question, a conversation mode and a mobile app. Separate formats for oracle decks and manifestation.

An auto-renewing subscription model — a barrier for anyone who just wants a single answer. Some readers are only available on the paid tier.

tarotia.app

Web service
Model:
Crystals, one-off payment with no subscription
Entry:
$4 for 65 crystals
Per reading:
1 crystal per reading
Free:
3 crystals on sign-up, no card needed
Languages:
7 languages

States outright that there's no subscription and no stored card — a strong argument for anyone wary of recurring charges. Nine decks, six spread types, a history of consultations and fractional pricing for conversation.

Payment in dollars, which is an extra obstacle for a Russian card. The Russian interface is machine-translated in places.

Model:
A side feature of an AI-tools platform
Entry:
not stated on the page
Per reading:
Free:
There's a free start

A quick one-off reading with no sign-up, with formats for love, career, the day and yes/no.

Tarot isn't the core product here, it's an add-on to an image-processing service. No depth, no history, no conversation, and the pricing isn't disclosed on the page.

Tarotari — our own service

Tarotari

Telegram bot, mini app and website
Model:
Keys (one-off) or a PRO subscription
Entry:
99 ₽ for 3 keys
Per reading:
from 16.5 ₽
Subscription:
490 ₽ for 30 days
Free:
One full reading every day

Broader in scope than most: beyond tarot there's the horoscope, natal chart, compatibility, dreams, numerology and palmistry in one place, with no switching between bots. You can ask follow-up questions about a reading you've already had, and there's a reference for all 78 cards. One-off payment — no subscription and no recurring charges.

We're younger than our competitors and our audience is still noticeably smaller. There's no choice of deck and no cast of different readers — Mira reads for everyone. Voice input and saving a reading to a file aren't built yet.

What to weigh up when choosing

The price of one reading, not the size of the pack. A large pack is almost always cheaper per reading, but only makes sense if you read regularly. Across the market the range is roughly 15 to 119 ₽ per reading.

Whether you can talk back. A single block of text with no way to ask again often leaves more questions than answers. Being able to follow up changes the value more than the number of cards does.

Recurring charges. Some services run on auto-renewing subscriptions, others deliberately avoid them. For a one-off curiosity, a subscription almost never pays off.

How wide the catalogue is. If you also care about horoscopes, dreams or numerology, check whether they're in the same service or you'll need a second one.

Frequently asked

Which tarot service should a beginner choose?

If you want a fast answer without fiddling with settings, any service that returns a reading straight after your question will do. If you plan to read regularly, look at the price of a single reading and whether you can ask a follow-up about a reading you've already had: without that, a spread often stays misunderstood.

How much does an online tarot reading cost?

As of July 2026, one reading in a Russian-language Telegram bot costs roughly 15 to 119 ₽ depending on the service and the size of the pack you buy. The minimum payment is usually 45–119 ₽. Web services generally sell packs of an internal currency, sometimes priced in dollars.

How are paid services different from free readings?

Free readings almost always serve up pre-written text for whichever cards came up. Paid services built on language models take your wording, the position of each card in the layout and the context of the conversation into account, so the reading is genuinely personal. Neither kind predicts events with any guarantee.

Subscription or pay-per-reading?

If you read now and then, paying per reading works out cheaper: a subscription pays for itself from around ten readings a month. Look separately at auto-renewal — some services deliberately offer payment without storing a card, because for many people that matters.

Can you trust an AI tarot reader?

A language model doesn't see the future — it organises the symbolism of the cards around your question. The value is in getting a coherent view of a situation and a reason to think about it from another angle. It's a tool for reflection, not medical, legal or financial advice.

This comparison was put together by the Tarotari team. We state plainly that one of the services reviewed is our own. Prices and features are accurate as of July 2026 and may change. Tarot is an entertainment-and-reflection format: it does not replace medical, legal or financial advice.
