If Midjourney determines you misused the Editor feature to violate the Community Guidelines, your account can be suspended or permanently banned and you will not receive a refund for any fees paid.

This clause ties a financial consequence, specifically the loss of any subscription or payment made, to a conduct determination made at Midjourney's discretion, without describing an appeals or review process.
Interpretive note: Enforceability of the no-refund provision varies by jurisdiction; EU, UK, and California statutory consumer rights may limit or override this contractual term depending on the subscription structure and applicable law.
Users who are suspended or banned for Editor-related violations will not receive a refund for subscription fees paid, regardless of the portion of the subscription period remaining at the time of enforcement.

"Anyone attempting to violate our Community Guidelines using the Editor will face suspension or banning without refund. Use this tool with respect and consideration for others.— Excerpt from Midjourney's Midjourney Community Guidelines
REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Refund exclusions tied to conduct-based account termination may require evaluation under EU Consumer Rights Directive provisions on service withdrawal, UK Consumer Rights Act 2015 statutory refund rights, and California's automatic renewal and refund laws. Where a consumer has paid for a subscription period not yet fully delivered, a blanket no-refund policy may conflict with statutory obligations in these jurisdictions. Relevant enforcement authorities include national consumer protection agencies in EU member states, the CMA in the UK, and the California AG. GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The no-refund clause is triggered by a conduct determination made at Midjourney's discretion under the catch-all guidelines, which compounds the enforcement indeterminacy identified above. This creates layered exposure: both the grounds for termination and the financial consequence are determined unilaterally. JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU and UK consumers have statutory refund rights that may supersede contractual no-refund provisions in consumer contracts. California's Consumer Legal Remedies Act and Auto-Renewal Law may also be relevant where subscriptions are involved. Organizations with EU or UK users should assess whether this clause is enforceable in those jurisdictions. CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Enterprise procurement teams should determine whether organizational use of the Editor feature is subject to this provision and whether enterprise agreements provide different termination and refund terms. The provision as written applies to individual users and does not carve out business accounts. COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Compliance teams should review whether the no-refund on ban provision is disclosed at the point of subscription purchase and whether it satisfies clear and conspicuous disclosure requirements under applicable consumer protection law. Legal teams in EU, UK, and California should assess enforceability and whether the Terms of Service provides additional refund terms that modify this provision.
