Getting started

The astrology apps astrologers can join, compared fairly

Which app suits you depends on how you like to be tested, how you want to be paid and whether you want to read on more than one platform. Here is what each app says on its own pages, and where it says nothing.

Apply to join Kismo How Kismo works for astrologers

Free to apply in your browser. A person reads your application and decides within 2 days.

Short answer

Apps astrologers can join in India include Astrotalk, Astroyogi, InstaAstro, AstroSage and Anytime Astro, and each has its own route in ^1,3,5,6,8. Astrotalk interviews shortlisted applicants by phone and then video ²; the others do not describe their tests publicly. On the pages we checked, only Anytime Astro publishes the astrologer's share, 20 to 40 percent of what the client pays ¹¹, and none publishes a rule on reading elsewhere, so ask before you sign. Kismo publishes both: you keep 30% to 55% of a rate you set, and its Astrologer Agreement is exclusive, so you leave other platforms before going live.

Largest audience stated: Astrotalk: 4,50,000+ daily users and 13,000+ astrologers, its own figures ¹
Only published interview: Astrotalk: a telephone round, then a video-call round ²
Help with visibility: Astroyogi offers live shows, reels, articles and promo consultations ³
Widest skills list: AstroSage's join form lists 24 skills and 36 languages ⁸
Share astrologers keep: Published only by Anytime Astro: 20 to 40 percent, set at onboarding ¹¹
Reading on other apps: No public rule from the five; Kismo requires exclusivity while you are live

The apps

Which astrology apps can astrologers join in India?

Astrologers in India can join Astrotalk, Astroyogi, InstaAstro, AstroSage, Anytime Astro, GuruVaani and Kismo, among others, each through its own form or hiring app. The table shows what each says about its size and what it offers astrologers, in its own words.

App	Size it states	What it highlights for astrologers
Astrotalk	13,000+ astrologers, 4,50,000+ daily users ¹	Vedic astrology, tarot, Lal Kitab, numerology and more ¹
Astroyogi	5,000+ experts; 1,000+ astrologers join a month ³	Yogi Live shows, reels, articles and SEO support, promo consultations ³
AstroSage	40+ million downloads, 1+ million daily users ⁸	24 skills from Vedic and KP to Tajik and Feng Shui; 36 languages ⁸
Anytime Astro	1,500+ astrologers ⁶	Training videos, missed-request alerts, daily rating and earnings ⁷
InstaAstro	Not stated on its hiring pages	Vedic, tarot, numerology, palmistry, vastu, KP, Reiki and more ⁴
GuruVaani (AstroGuruji)	Not stated	Chat, audio calls and live sessions; remedies offered through the app ⁹

Every size figure above is the company's own claim, and none says how it was counted. A bigger app also means more astrologers competing for each client.

Joining

How do the apps compare on applying, testing and decision time?

The apps compare very differently on testing: Astrotalk publishes a two-interview process, while most others publish no test at all.

App	How you apply	Test before going live	Decision time stated

Money and rules

How do the apps compare on rate, share and exclusivity?

On rate, share and exclusivity, the five larger apps publish almost nothing for astrologers on the pages we checked. That is the gap to close before you sign: ask each one in writing.

App	Who sets your rate	Your share	Reading on other apps
Astrotalk	Not stated publicly	Not stated publicly	Not stated publicly; the form asks if you work elsewhere ¹⁰
Astroyogi	Not stated publicly	Not stated publicly	Not stated publicly
InstaAstro	Not stated publicly	Not stated publicly	Not stated publicly; the form asks which platform ⁵
AstroSage	Not stated publicly	Not stated publicly	Not stated publicly
Anytime Astro	Anytime Astro, which controls price changes ¹¹	20 to 40 percent of what the client pays, set at onboarding ¹¹	Not stated publicly; the profile photo you used there may not be used on another platform for 5 years after leaving ¹¹
Kismo	You: Rs 20 to Rs 1,000 a minute	30% to 55% of your rate, shown on each request	Not allowed while your profile is live

Fit

Which astrology app suits which kind of astrologer?

The astrology app that suits you depends on what you value most: audience, visibility, training, freedom to use several apps, or clear published terms. No app suits everyone, and the list below says honestly where each may fit better.

You want to keep reading on several apps: Kismo is exclusive, while the other five publish no such rule, so ask them first.
You want live shows and help with reels and articles: Astroyogi offers these ³, and GuruVaani runs live sessions ⁹.
You want training videos inside the app: Anytime Astro includes them ⁷; Kismo runs no training before approval.
You read less common systems such as Tajik, Ramal or Feng Shui: AstroSage's form lists them by name ⁸.
You prefer an interview to a written test: Astrotalk interviews by phone and video ².
You want a published share, your own rate and one quick test: Kismo states all three.

Questions to ask

What should you ask an astrology app before you join?

Before you join an astrology app, ask for its astrologer agreement in writing and check these points against it.

What share of each paid minute do I keep, and does it change over time?
Who sets my rate, and how often can I change it?
When and how are payouts sent, and is there a minimum?
May I read on other platforms while I am here?
Are there penalties, minimum hours or targets?
Who pays for free first sessions given to new clients?
Which documents do you need, and how are they stored?

On Kismo

How does Kismo compare, and what does it ask in return?

Kismo is an app where clients talk to verified astrologers by chat or call. It publishes its joining terms in full: one reading, a decision within 2 days, your own rate and a stated share.

Apply free in a browser, with no interview, resume or phone call.
One chat reading of about 10 minutes, read in full by a person; the decision comes by email within 2 days.
Your own rate for chats and calls, from Rs 20 to Rs 1,000 a minute, changed at once.
A share of 30% to 55% of your rate, shown on every request before you accept it.
Withdrawals from Rs 2,000, once every 14 days, sent by email through Grade.

In return, the Astrologer Agreement is exclusive. While your profile is live you may not offer readings through any other astrology app, website or platform, paid or unpaid; private clients off any platform are allowed.

Anyone reading on Astrotalk, AstroSage or another app today has to leave it before going live. Remedies are offered only through the app's own Remedies section, at prices it sets, so astrologers who sell their own remedies may prefer another platform.

Questions

What do astrologers ask about this?

Which astrology app pays astrologers the most?

Most apps do not publish the share astrologers keep. Astrotalk, Astroyogi, InstaAstro and AstroSage do not state it on the pages we checked; Anytime Astro's terms say 20 to 40 percent, decided at onboarding, with prices set by Anytime Astro ¹¹. Kismo publishes its share: 30% to 55% of a rate you set.

Which astrology app is easiest for an astrologer to join?

It depends on what you find easy. Astrotalk interviews shortlisted applicants twice, by telephone and video ². Kismo asks for one 10-minute chat reading and decides within 2 days. The other apps do not describe their tests publicly.

Can I join Astrotalk and Kismo at the same time?

You can apply to both, but you cannot read on both. Kismo's Astrologer Agreement requires you to leave other astrology platforms before your profile goes live there. Private clients you see off any platform are still allowed.

Do these apps need an astrology certificate?

Not on their public join pages. Astrotalk asks where you learned and treats certificates as optional ¹⁰, and the others ask about skills and experience. See astrology certificates and courses for what certificates exist.

Which app is good for tarot readers?

Several take tarot readers. Astrotalk's hiring app says you can join as an astrologer or a tarot card reader ², InstaAstro lists tarot among its specialities ⁴, and AstroSage's skills list includes tarot reading ⁸.

How do I know a hiring app on Google Play is official?

Check that the listing links back to the company's own website and form. Astrotalk's Astrologer Hiring app, for example, sends you to the registration form on astrotalk.com ². Never install an app a stranger sends you on WhatsApp.
