By accessing or using Thumbfa.st, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, do not use our service.
Thumbfa.st is an AI-powered YouTube thumbnail generation service operated by Codelynx, LLC. The service allows users to create thumbnails using a credit-based system.
Important: Each thumbnail generation incurs real costs from our AI providers (Google Gemini and OpenAI) at approximately $0.20 per generation. These costs are incurred as soon as generation begins and cannot be recovered.
All sales of credits are final. Due to the digital and instant nature of our service, credits used to generate thumbnails incur irrecoverable third-party API costs.
Consumed credits cannot be refunded under any circumstances.
When you use credits to generate thumbnails, we immediately incur costs from our AI providers. These costs cannot be recovered, therefore:
Refund calculation: If you request a refund, the amount will be calculated as:
Example: For a $20 plan with 50 generations consumed ($10 in API costs), the maximum refund is $20 - $10 = $10
No refund scenarios: If all credits have been consumed, or if API costs equal or exceed the amount paid, no refund will be issued.
Unused credits at the time of account cancellation or refund request may be refunded, minus any applicable payment processing fees.
You may cancel your subscription at any time through your account settings. Cancellation is effective at the end of your current billing period. We comply with the FTC's requirements for easy cancellation - you can cancel through the same method you used to subscribe.
To request a refund, contact us at our support email. We will process eligible requests within 7 business days.
Subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing period unless cancelled. You will be charged the then-current subscription rate.
