Any prepaid credits you buy for Kling AI's video or image generation services expire at a set date and any unused balance is permanently forfeited with no refund or rollover.

If you purchase a large credit package and do not use it fully before expiration, you lose the remaining balance with no recourse under the stated terms.
This provision creates direct financial risk for users who prepurchase resource packages, particularly business users buying in bulk, as unused credits are cleared upon expiration and the terms explicitly state they do not carry over.

"Unused resource package balance does not carry over and will be cleared upon expiration.— Excerpt from Kling AI's Kling AI Terms of Service
REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Non-refundable prepaid credit policies may implicate state consumer protection laws in the US, including California's gift card laws and general unfair business practices statutes, though AI credit packages may not be classified as gift cards in all jurisdictions. The FTC Act applies where the no-refund policy is not clearly disclosed at point of purchase. EU consumer protection law, including the Consumer Rights Directive, may require clearer pre-purchase disclosure of expiration and refund terms for EU users. GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The no-refund, no-rollover policy is operationally straightforward but creates chargeback and dispute risk, particularly for enterprise customers purchasing large prepaid volumes. JURISDICTION FLAGS: California's Automatic Renewal Law and consumer protection statutes may require specific disclosures about prepaid credit expiration. EU users may have stronger statutory withdrawal rights under the Consumer Rights Directive depending on whether the service qualifies as a digital content contract. CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Enterprise procurement teams should negotiate contract-specific refund or rollover provisions rather than relying on the standard terms. The standard terms' no-carry-over policy should be flagged as a financial risk in vendor assessments for high-volume API integrators. COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Legal teams should verify that Kling AI's billing disclosure at point of purchase clearly states the expiration and no-refund terms, and assess whether the platform's billing practices satisfy applicable consumer protection disclosure requirements in each jurisdiction where the service is offered commercially.
