Speed dating gift cards, from 1 November
Give someone a weeknight they'll talk about. Twelve conversations, one well-hosted evening, and maybe a 9am email worth waking up for.
How will Oh Hi gift cards work?
Choose a $55 or $65 card. You get a code by email to forward, print or tuck inside a birthday card. Whoever you give it to picks any Oh Hi evening in Sydney that suits them, in their own age bracket, and enters the code when they book. The $55 card covers an early-bird or standard seat; the $65 card covers any seat, even the last few. Cards are valid for three years, and if one hasn't been used, you can get a full refund within 14 days of buying it.
Two cards. Any evening.
The standard
Covers an early-bird or standard seat at any evening. The sensible choice, and plenty of seats to pick from.
Any seat, any evening
Covers every seat, including the last few. For the friend who decides at the last minute.
- A code by email, ready to forward or print
- They choose the evening, the bracket and the side of the room
- Valid for three years
- Full refund within 14 days if it hasn't been used
Tell me when they're ready
One email, the day gift cards go on sale. That's it.
- On sale from 1 November 2026
- In time for Christmas and summer birthdays
- We never share your email
Gift ideas for single friends
Your single friends have enough candles. What most of them don't have is a low-stakes way to meet someone new that doesn't involve an app.
Make it a night out, not a hint
The kindest way to give speed dating is to come too. Two cards, one evening, a drink before and a debrief at the interval. You won't be seated together, and you'll have someone to compare notes with on the way home.
Let them choose
A gift card means they pick the evening, the suburb and the bracket. No guessing their age on a form, no booking them in for a night they can't make.
Pair it with something small
A good pen for the match card. A note with your three favourite first questions. A promise of brunch the weekend after to hear how it went.
Other ideas that land
- A booked dinner for two at a place they've wanted to try, “for whoever you like enough”
- A class they can do on their own: pottery, a choir, a run club. Rooms full of new people
- An evening out with you, with the plan to talk to strangers

Gift card questions
Can I buy a speed dating gift voucher in Sydney?
Oh Hi gift cards go on sale on 1 November 2026. They aren't on sale yet. Leave your email on this page and we'll tell you the day they're ready.
How much are Oh Hi gift cards?
There will be two: a $55 card, which covers an early-bird or standard seat, and a $65 card, which covers any seat at any evening, including the last few.
How does the person I give it to use it?
You get a code by email to forward, print or write in a card. They pick their own evening, in their own age bracket, and enter the code when they book. You don't need to know their bracket or their plans.
Can I get a refund on a gift card?
Yes. If the card hasn't been used, you can get a full refund within 14 days of buying it.
Do Oh Hi gift cards expire?
They'll be valid for three years from the day you buy them, as Australian law requires for gift cards.
Is speed dating a weird gift?
Only if it's given as a hint. Given as a night out (better still, two cards so you go together), it's a story, twelve conversations and a reason to dress up on a Tuesday. If they'd rather not, they can pass it to a friend.
