Character.AI updated its Terms of Service on July 11, 2026, incorporating new in-app product offerings into its Charms currency system. The updated terms now explicitly reference 'series episode', 'fm episode', and 'reads chapter' as purchasable items within the Charms catalog, alongside existing products like ad-free passes and image generation. This change reflects expansion of the platform's monetizable content offerings but does not materially alter user rights, data practices, or payment obligations.
The updated terms now explicitly list additional in-app products available for purchase using Character.AI's Charms currency: series episodes, FM episodes, and book chapters. These products are added to the existing catalog alongside ad-free passes, image generation tools, and other features. The change does not modify pricing, payment obligations, or user rights; it clarifies which items are available for purchase.
Three new product types added: series episodes, FM episodes, and book chapters are now explicitly listed as purchasable items.
