Understanding credits and tests

The Snyk Platform Access plan uses a credit system. You can redeem these credits for services, and they are then deducted from your credit balance. Credits must be used within the term of their order. Any unused credits will expire and cannot be redeemed, refunded, or credited. Credits are not redeemable for cash and cannot be transferred.

If you run out of credits, you agree to negotiate in good faith with Snyk to purchase additional credits and settle any outstanding consumption.
