KKday Review: What Hong Kong Travellers Should Know Before Booking Tours and Tickets Abroad, and What KKday Points Return

KKday is a travel experience platform founded in Taipei in 2014; its app is published by Kkday.com International Company Limited. Tours, tickets and transport services are provided by local suppliers, while KKday handles sales, payment and customer service; the Hong Kong app listing states that online customer service is available in Chinese and English.

In Hong Kong, the Travel Industry Council of Hong Kong's directory of travel agents lists Well C Travel Limited, trading as KKDAY, with travel agent licence no. 353679, and a business scope covering outbound package tours, ticketing, air-plus-hotel packages, hotel reservations and cruise packages. The licence regulates the agent itself; refunds for a single ticket or local activity remain governed by the cancellation policy on the product page.

KKday's strength lies in Asia, with products including the Japan Rail Pass, timed-entry tickets such as Shibuya Sky in Tokyo, city passes such as the Visit Busan Pass, theme parks, day tours from the major cities, airport transfers and travel SIM cards. Buying in advance avoids queueing on site, and many tickets are issued as e-vouchers.

The platform also carries local Hong Kong dining and experience products, as well as limited releases that sell out quickly; users report that the app slows down at peak demand. Overall, KKday's value lies in arranging a trip abroad in one place.

This site's link opens KKday's own website with this site's partner code attached. The arrangement operates under KKday's KKpartners affiliate programme, in which the code tracks the visits and orders arriving from a partner's website. Registration, booking, payment and vouchers proceed with KKday exactly as on kkday.com, and the language and currency can be changed from KKday's menu.

Disclosure: this site may earn a commission from KKday on bookings made through the link. KKday calculates it on the amount actually paid after coupons, includes only experiences that have taken place, and excludes orders cancelled by the reader or the supplier.

Registration is free and confers Silver membership. KKday's member benefits page lists four levels, Silver, Gold, Platinum and Diamond, and states that Silver members earn the full standard KKday Points without a cap. The benefits listed include using points as shopping credit from 50 points, redeeming points for gifts and experiences, a birthday discount code, member missions and priority customer service; the account shows which of these apply at the reader's level.

Two of these merit attention before the first booking. The birthday code is issued on the first day of the birthday month, provided the member profile has been completed. Member missions award experience points or KKday Points for set tasks and are reached from the app's "Mine" page. Any code should be entered at checkout and the reduced total confirmed before payment; if it does not appear, enquire through the app's customer service or [email protected] first.

Suppose a reader books a HK$300 attraction ticket in Japan and a HK$450 airport transfer, paying HK$750 in total. KKday Points return 1 point for each US dollar paid on each booking: HK$300 is about US$38.25 and HK$450 about US$57.37, or about 95 points in total. At 50 points to US$0.25, that is worth about US$0.48 (about HK$3.73), a return of roughly 0.5%; since 95 points exceed the 50-point minimum, they can be used on the next booking once credited.

The charging currency matters more. If a booking is charged in yen and the card applies a 1.95% foreign transaction fee, the reader pays an extra HK$14.63 on this trip, about four times the points. KKday should therefore be chosen for the product, the price and the cancellation terms, with payment in Hong Kong dollars where offered; the points are a minor return on top.

Each product carries its own cancellation policy, stated on the product page and in the confirmation email; flash deals and some physical vouchers are non-refundable. Cancellation deadlines follow the supplier's local time; KKday's product pages state that a cancellation request takes 2 to 5 business days to process, after which the money returns to the original payment method, with the actual credit date depending on the card issuer.

KKday's help centre states that, with proof, certain cases qualify for a full refund, such as a cancelled or delayed flight, a natural disaster at the destination that prevents the tour from departing, and the death or terminal illness of a close relative. Readers should contact KKday's customer service promptly and retain the airline's or supplier's notice as proof.

The Hong Kong app listing states that Visa, Mastercard, UnionPay, American Express, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Alipay, Octopus, PayMe and Atome are accepted, among others. Readers should confirm the charging currency on the final payment screen; some credit cards charge a fee on transactions processed overseas even when settled in Hong Kong dollars, so it is prudent to check with the card issuer first.

KKday's terms of use note that a refund may differ from the amount originally paid because of exchange rates and fees charged by KKday, the credit card company or the payment processor. The confirmation email and voucher for each order should be kept safely for any later enquiry with KKday, the supplier or the card issuer.

Members earn 1 point for every US dollar paid after coupons and discounts, with other currencies converted at the US dollar rate; points are credited within a week of the experience ending. Once 50 points have accumulated, the points discount becomes available at checkout: every 50 points offset US$0.25 on a booking of US$1 or more, a base return of about 0.5%. Points may also be redeemed for rewards and coupons.

Unused points expire 12 months after they are earned; KKday's own example has points earned on 23 October expiring on 30 September of the following year. Points belong to the member's account, are not transferable and have no cash value, and KKday may amend the programme at any time. Because returns and thresholds are set in US dollars, their Hong Kong dollar value fluctuates slightly with exchange rates.

On 24 October 2026, KKday was rated 4.7 from 75,028 ratings on the Hong Kong App Store and 4.7 from 77,400 reviews on Google Play, with more than one million downloads. Favourable reviews frequently mention professional guides, punctual airport transfers and convenient booking.

Unfavourable reviews concentrate on four areas: suppliers cancelling at short notice before departure, with refunds taking longer than promised; the app failing to display a QR code or voucher on site, forcing a repeat purchase; the app being overloaded during limited-time sales; and some orders that cannot be cancelled by the user once paid. Reading the cancellation policy and saving vouchers offline in advance reduce these risks.

Suitable: Hong Kong residents travelling abroad who need several tickets, day tours, transport passes or transfers and wish to arrange them together before departure. They should complete the member profile first, read each product's cancellation policy and confirm the charging currency before paying.

Unsuitable: those who require every booking to be freely cancellable, and those expecting a cash reward. For them, the points are too small to change the decision.
