For clarity, future monthly allotment(s) for purchased bundles cannot be applied against KIQC Overages in a current month.
If you exceed the amount of monthly KIQCs you have purchased under your plan, unless your plan is set to turn KIQC Overages off and suspend KIQ Conversations once your monthly allotment(s) is reached, then the KIQ Conversations service will continue to work and the Pro Assistant will continue to support your end-customers; provided that if you do not timely pay KIQC Overage fees or upgrade your plan by purchasing additional bundles, Kustomer reserves the right to suspend the KIQ Conversations service until such KIQC Overage fees have been paid.

“Fully Automated Conversation (FAC)” means a unique conversation initiated by an end-customer where the Conversational Assistant engaged with the end-customer and did not attempt to transfer the conversation to an End-User (i.e. Client’s agents) within the first 24 hours of the conversation being created and and any one of the following actions occurs: (i) the end-customer answers three or more Conversational Assistant prompts (a prompt is any text message or click of a button sent by the end-customer after a Conversational Assistant starts running in the conversation), or (ii) a knowledge base lookup occurs (the Conversational Assistant reaches the article deflection dialog).
“KIQ for Self-Service” is an AI service offering as part of the Platform that offers FACs across Chat, SMS and WhatsApp per the following functionality:
- AI Chatbot for messaging and chat (AI chatbot will be set up pursuant to a statement of work as needed)
- Email and form deflection
4.2. Overage Charges
KIQ for Self-Service subscription is billed based on the number of FACs enabled through KIQ for Self Service Pricing Tier purchased by you and set forth in the Order (prorated, as applicable, if an Annual Billing Period is less than 12 months based on the number of days in such Annual Billing Period). In the event your annual FAC allotment is exhausted prior to the end of an Annual Billing Period, Kustomer shall bill and invoice you on a monthly basis in arrears at the end of each month until the next Annual Billing Period based on the number of FACs in that month that exceed the annual allotment of FACs (“KIQ-SS Overages”) at the overage rate set forth in your order, or if no such overage fees are explicitly specified in your Order, at our then current list price for such KIQ Features as published in our billing portal. By enabling or otherwise using KIQ for Self-Service, you are agreeing to pay KIQ-SS Overages fees.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if within thirty (30) days of exceeding your annual allotment of FACs, you can select to upgrade to a higher Pricing Tier based on Kustomer’s published list price (in each case adjusted for the discount % set forth in the Order for the current Pricing Tier) by notifying Kustomer in writing. Such change shall take effect on the date you first exceeded your annual FAC allotment for the remainder of the Annual Billing Period, and if applicable, each subsequent Annual Billing Period for the remainder of the Subscription Term. Once you have upgraded to a different Pricing Tier, you cannot change to a lower Pricing Tier for the remainder of the Subscription Term.
For clarity, the FAC allotment in an applicable KIQ for Self Service Pricing Tier is based on a subscription term of 12 months. If you either upgrade to a higher KIQ for Self Service Pricing Tier during a Subscription Term or purchase an initial subscription to KIQ for Self Service partially way through the Subscription Term of your underlying Platform subscription, the FAC allotment for that Pricing Tier shall be appropriately prorated based on the number of days from the date of such upgrade or initial purchase until the anniversary of the Subscription Term for your underlying Platform subscription.
If you exceed the FAC limits, the KIQ for Self-Service will continue to work; provided that if you do not timely pay KIQ-SS Overage fees or upgrade to a higher Pricing Tier, Kustomer reserves the right to suspend such KIQ functionality.

By enabling or otherwise using Agent Assist, you are agreeing to pay Translation Overages fees.
To the extent any such Translation Overages fees become past due for any reason, then in addition to any other rights set forth in the Agreement, Kustomer reserves the right to suspend Client’s access to the Agent Assist service until such Translation Overages fees have been paid.
Kustomer reserves the right to update the Agent Assist and Translated Word pricing from time to time by updating our pricing page and within the billing portal – such changes shall take effect at the time of your Subscription Term renewal for Agent Assist licenses purchased prior to such pricing change.
