Bloomboff has not independently checked Alibaba's sales records or the product terms.

Bloomboff's take

Buying access is not the same as using it. Before prepaying, check which models qualify, when credits expire, whether unused balances roll over and what happens if the service changes. These are questions to ask, not terms we have verified for this offer.

A giant checkout number can tell a good sales story. It cannot tell you whether a particular bundle fits your workload. Your shopping cart has not become an AI productivity report. Keep the receipt; spare yourself the bullshit.
