How to Start with Purple Garden

To sign up on the website, find the Sign In button in the top righthand corner, and click ‘Don’t have an account?’ Here you will be prompted to enter your email address and a unique password, or sign in with Google, Facebook, or Apple.

For mobile, you must create an account before you can begin using the app, and accept or decline tracking information and push notifications.

When you have chosen the advisor you’d like to work with, you can then add funds to your account in 5 minute increments all the way up to 60 minutes, depending on how much the advisor charges. There is a $15 minimum for adding funds.

All unused funds from the chat will go back into your account to be used again, and you will begin receiving 5% cash back automatically.

You can sign up with any major credit card, debit card, or PayPal.

How to Book a Reading

To book your reading, find the psychic you want to speak with by browsing profiles. They’ll each have a caption summary of their services in the thumbnail, and by clicking you can see their full profile where they highlight their abilities, experience, and more.

You can also watch their introduction videos at the top of their profile to get an idea of their energy and see if you feel a connection.

Once your reader has been chosen, choose whether you’d like a Live Chat, Voice Call, or Live Video Call. (Note that you may see an option for a Video Reading – this will take you to the sister site, Purple Ocean.)

When you have chosen your reading method, click on the green button to the right, which will prompt you to add funds you if you haven’t already. If you have, you will be connected to your advisor shortly.

How to Find a Psychic Advisor

There are many readers available on Purple Garden, and it may be a daunting task to choose one at first. Your best bet is to figure out the type of reading you’d like, and find it in the category page. That will guide you to readers who are proficient in that reading method.

You can also filter readers based on the price point you’d like to pay, how you would like to receive your reading and number of reviews. Once you have it narrowed down, it’s time to get to know the readers.

Get to Know the Advisors

Each reader has a self-written profile where they go into detail about their experience, abilities, and reading parameters. For instance, most readers state in their profiles that they will not perform readings for health or legal matters. Each reader also has a video introduction where they summarize their readings as well.

Reviews are available for each reader, so you can see what others have experienced with a reader. You can even see how many readings they have given, their star rating, how many positive experiences, and how many negative experiences.

Connect with an Advisor

Whenever you visit a reader’s profile on the app, they are added to your recently viewed bar at the top of the page, so you can easily find them again. Note that only the last 5 profiles you viewed are saved.

You can connect to readers via live chat, voice call, or live video call.

After you have gotten a reading, the advisors are automatically added to your favorites list. You can also add an advisor to your favorites by clicking the heart at the top of their profile.

If you wish to remove a reader from your favorites, just unclick the heart.

Leave Feedback

You can leave feedback on any reading longer than 5 minutes – less than 5 minutes and there won’t be an option.

Feedback is important for psychic readers, to affirm their abilities or see where they could improve. It is also important for other people to see feedback, so they can make the most informed choice possible when deciding on a reader.

Is Purple Garden A Legit Brand?

Purple Garden has no other metric of accuracy or legitimacy for their advisors other than customer reviews, so make sure you read them thoroughly before choosing a reader.

While it seems like the psychics on the platform are legit, Purple Garden does not guarantee accuracy or experience with their readers, who are independent contractors and responsible for their own presentation on the site, ie. Profile picture and bio.

Purple Garden also claims that their readings are for entertainment purposes only and offers no refunds. So, if you are looking for nothing more than a casual, low stakes psychic reading, Purple Garden may be a great option, but use it at your own risk.

Mobile App

Purple Garden is unique in that it is actually designed to be a mobile experience. All of the information and features that make the service worth using are available on the app rather than the website.

The app is available for iOS and Android, and can be downloaded for free by clicking. When you have downloaded it, you will immediately need to accept tracking information and sign up using Google, Facebook, Apple, or your own email address with a unique password.

Help and Support

Customer support is only available via feedback box or email. There is no option to speak to customer support live, but they do try to get back to emails within a one day timeframe.

There is an extensive FAQ available in the Customer Support tab in the menu on the left, that answers most customer support questions.

There is also an option to leave feedback if you have ideas about ways the service could be better, and you can vote on others’ ideas as well.

Conclusion

Purple Garden is a convenient psychic service that has been optimized for mobile, so you can get in-depth and accurate readings from psychics no matter where you are, or what time you need them.

Price points vary, but it is possible to get a reading for a reasonable price, and your purchases earn 5% cash back on your account credit for up to 6 months.

The types of readers available run the gamut from tarot card readings, to palm readings, to astrology readings, to psychic readings and more. You are sure to find a reading tailored to your needs on Purple Garden.

With no satisfaction guarantee offered, Purple Garden may be more risky than other sites. Make sure to read user reviews when choosing a reader to semi-guarantee yourself a good reading for the money.

FAQs

Does Purple Garden vet their psychics?

While Purple Garden’s vetting practices aren’t as rigorous as other sites, they do require each applicant to send in a video reading sample before they are added to the site. You can check out reviews for each psychic and those with the best reviews have a sticker on their profile to indicate Top Accuracy.

Are Purple Garden readings guaranteed?

Purple Garden states that their readings are for entertainment purposes only, and not guaranteed, so inaccurate or poor readings won’t be refunded. It is up to you to choose psychics on Purple Garden at your own risk.

What types of readings are available on Purple Garden?

Purple Garden offers reviews from tarot card readers, astrologers, mediums, and clairaudient, clairsentient, and clairvoyant psychics. Their most popular readings are concerning love and relationships, but they also answer questions about career, family, spirituality, and more.

What are angel insights?

Purple Garden offers a category of psychic readings called angel insights. These differ from a traditional psychic reading by calling on higher beings, “angels”, to provide insight on your life path moving forward. These readings are great for those with questions about spirituality and a higher purpose. Angel insights are performed by psychic mediums who have a connection with a spirit guide or higher power to channel this advice especially for you.
