    Back to search results
    1. Sign in to your account.
       
    2. Select Reactivate Credit.

      Note: If you're using iPhone or iPad and the Reactivate Credit option is not available, then you may need to clear the history and cookies on your device and sign in again.


    It might take up to 15 minutes to reactivate. We'll send you an email when it's done. 

    If you're in Japan, things work a little differently. Please refer to our Terms of Use for more information. 

    When does Skype Credit go inactive?

    Skype Credit will go inactive after 180 days of no use. Make sure you place a call (outside your subscription, if you have one) or send a text every 180 days. We send two reminder emails, 7 days and 2 days before your Skype Credit becomes inactive.
