This provision establishes that prepaid balances are subject to automatic expiration and forfeiture after 12 months, and that customers have no property right or refund entitlement in unused balances except where required by applicable law. The non-refundability and forfeiture terms create financial risk for customers who prepay significant balances and do not fully utilize them within the 12-month window.
Interpretive note: Enforceability of the forfeiture provision may vary by jurisdiction depending on applicable gift card, prepaid balance, or unclaimed property regulations; the agreement acknowledges law as an exception to non-refundability.
Under this clause, customers who purchase prepaid credits must use them within 12 months of each payment or forfeit the unused balance with no refund. The terms state that all prepaid credit sales are final, with limited exceptions where applicable law requires otherwise.
