Kimi Referral Code – Guaranteed Membership Credits, Up to 1 Year

Kimi Referral Deal at a Glance

• Offer: a guaranteed membership-credit prize when you sign up to Kimi through our invite link — every draw wins, with tiers of 3-day, 7-day, 15-day, 1-month or 1-year credits
• Realistic expectation: the draw is heavily weighted to the smaller tiers — published odds are 90% for 3-day credits, 7% for 7-day, 1.9% for 15-day, 1% for 1-month and 0.1% for the 1-year jackpot
• How to claim: open the invite link (code 42YS4W is attached automatically), register a new Kimi account, then download the Kimi app or PC client and log in within 3 hours of signing up
• Where to draw: in the app, open the "Invite to Earn" entry and take your draw — credits land on your account instantly
• Both sides benefit: yes — you and we each get a guaranteed draw when you sign up through the link, at no cost to you
• Heads-up: credits from this campaign are valid until 31 December 2026 at the latest, and they work on Kimi's features except Kimi Code

About Kimi and Moonshot AI

Kimi is the AI chatbot from Moonshot AI, the Beijing-based lab best known for its open-weights K-series models — the current flagship, Kimi K3, is one of the strongest open models available and has built a serious following among developers and researchers. The international app at kimi.com bundles chat, research, document analysis and agentic tools, with a free tier (Adagio) and paid memberships from $19 a month (Moderato).

This referral runs through Kimi's official invite programme (styled the "Moon Landing Plan" on the invite page). It is a prize draw rather than a fixed bonus: everyone who signs up through an invite link wins membership credits, but the tier is drawn at random. We have listed the published odds above rather than lead with the 1-year headline — a 3-day prize is by far the most likely outcome.

This page contains a referral link. If you sign up through it we receive a prize draw too, at no cost to you.

How to Claim Your Kimi Sign-Up Prize

The invitation code 42YS4W is carried by the link, so there is nothing to type. The one rule that catches people out is the 3-hour window:

• Step 1: Click the referral link above to open Kimi's invite page with our invitation code attached
• Step 2: Register a brand-new Kimi account on that page — the programme is for people who have never had a Kimi account, and only your first invite counts
• Step 3: Within 3 hours of registering, download the Kimi app (iOS/Android) or PC client and log in with the same account — miss the window and the draw is forfeited
• Step 4: Open the "Invite to Earn" entry in the app and take your guaranteed draw — the membership credits are added to your account straight away

Important Terms

• New users only — you must never have registered a Kimi account before, and you can only be invited once (your first invite is the one that counts)
• The 3-hour rule: you must log in to the Kimi app or PC client within 3 hours of registering through the invite page, or the draw is forfeited
• Prizes are membership-equivalent credits, not a subscription — Kimi's help centre notes the credits draw down as you use them, so a "1-year" prize is not a guarantee of continuous year-long use
• Credits are valid until the end of their stated duration or 31 December 2026, whichever comes first
• Credits are personal — they cannot be transferred, gifted, sold or converted to cash — and they apply to Kimi's features except Kimi Code
• Kimi's help centre notes the separate invite-a-friend-to-subscribe bonus task is currently paused due to capacity constraints; the sign-up draw described on this page is the live part of the programme
• The programme is run by Moonshot AI and can change or end at any time — check the live invite page for the current rules

What can I actually win with the Kimi referral draw?

Every draw wins something, but the tiers are heavily weighted: published odds are 90% for 3-day membership credits, 7% for 7-day, 1.9% for 15-day, 1% for 1-month and 0.1% for the 1-year jackpot. Treat the 3-day prize as the realistic outcome and anything bigger as a bonus. For scale, Kimi's paid membership starts at $19 a month, so even the smaller prizes are a decent free trial of the paid tier — and the draw costs nothing.

Is Kimi free to use?

Yes — Kimi has a free tier (Adagio) that you keep regardless of the draw, covering everyday chat with the K-series models. Paid memberships (Moderato from $19/month, with higher tiers above it) raise usage limits and unlock heavier features. The membership credits you win through this referral give you a taste of the paid experience without paying; when they run out or expire, your account simply carries on at the free tier.

Why do I have to log in to the app within 3 hours?

It is the programme's anti-abuse rule, and it is strict: Kimi's help centre says the invited friend must download the Kimi app or PC client and log in within 3 hours of registering through the invite page, using the same account. Do it straight after signing up — if the window lapses, the draw is forfeited and you cannot be invited a second time.

Do the Kimi membership credits expire?

Yes. Credits from this campaign are valid until the end of their stated duration or 31 December 2026, whichever comes first — so a prize drawn late in the year is worth less calendar time than the same prize drawn now. They are also consumption-based rather than a clock: the credits draw down as you use Kimi's paid features, which is why Moonshot describes them as "membership-equivalent credits" rather than a subscription.

Do I need a Kimi promo code or invite code?

Searching for a Kimi promo code, invite code, discount code or referral code? They are all the same thing here: the invitation code 42YS4W, which our referral link carries automatically. Click through, register, and the code is applied without any typing. There is no separate voucher — the sign-up prize draw is the offer.
