AskBami pricing — travel smarter in Korea
Compare AskBami plans for Korea travel: prep at home with Korean lessons and KTO data, then unlock full on-trip mode with Naver & Kakao-powered discovery, smart camera, and unlimited travel chat. Free tier, Prep Pass, Trip Pass tiers, and a discounted Full Trip Bundle.
Why a subscription for a Korea travel app?
South Korea runs on Naver and KakaoMap — not on the same review and POI graphs you see on Google elsewhere. AskBami connects to that reality so you get cafes, restaurants, hikes, and neighborhoods locals actually use, explained clearly in English before you go.
Prep Pass is for the weeks before departure: official tourism data (KTO), My Trip and Survival Kit sections, Korean practice at every level, and Hangul Speed to read signs. Trip Pass is for being on the ground: unlimited Bami chat, live Naver + Kakao results per search, smart camera for menus and signs, and the taxi card to show drivers addresses in Korean.
Prices are shown in USD excluding tax for international storefronts. Start free, stay flexible with a monthly Prep Pass you can cancel anytime, or pick a 3, 7, 15, or 30-day Trip Pass for your K-travel dates.
What each plan unlocks
Free: Hangul level 1, core vocabulary, translator, public transport routing (ODsay), trip checklist, and a limited daily allowance for chat and camera — enough to try the app before you fly.
Prep Pass: all Korean learning levels, KTO data, full My Trip exploration, complete Bami Survival Kit, and structured Q&A with Bami so planning feels like chatting with a friend who knows Korea.
Trip Pass: unlimited discovery chat, Naver + Kakao-backed place search, smart camera analysis, and taxi tools — the plan most travelers pick for Seoul getaways or longer loops through Busan, Jeju, and beyond.
Full Trip Bundle bundles one month of Prep Pass with a 15-day Trip Pass at a lower combined price when you want both deep prep and full on-trip power.
Billing, cancellation, and referrals
Purchases run through the App Store or Google Play; manage renewals and cancellation in your platform account settings, like any subscription app. Prep Pass can be cancelled anytime. Trip Pass activates when you choose after purchase.
Refer friends: up to three free months combined (30 days per successful referral, max three referrals). Exact terms appear in the app when you share your link.

What travelers say
“The camera mode made Korean menus finally make sense. The 15-day Trip Pass was worth it for our week in Seoul plus day trips.”
“Prep Pass helped me build My Trip before departure; on the ground, Naver-backed suggestions through Bami were a huge upgrade over generic listicles.”
