Is it really free for 30 days?

Yes! Every new account gets 30 days of full premium access — no credit card required. You get unlimited flashcards, all HSK levels, and full analytics from day one.

What happens after 30 days?

After your free period ends, you can subscribe for $8 USD/month to keep full access. You can also invite friends to earn bonus days — each referral adds extra free time to your account.

How is HSK Lord different from Anki?

HSK Lord is purpose-built for Chinese learners. There's no setup, no hunting for decks, and no configuration. All 5,000+ official HSK words are built in with pinyin, definitions, and spaced repetition — ready to go in seconds.

Can I use it on my phone?

Absolutely! HSK Lord is fully responsive and works great on any device — phone, tablet, or computer. Just open your browser and start studying. No app download required.

What if I already know some Chinese?

Take our free placement test to find your level, or just pick the HSK level that matches your ability. You can start at HSK 1 or jump straight to HSK 6 — it's up to you.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes, absolutely. There are no contracts or commitments. You can cancel your subscription at any time and you'll keep access until the end of your billing period.
