Credits are an internal currency inside your app that you can use to sell any resources to your users.

You can easily combine the monetary price with your credits system. We recommend: 1 ☆ = 1 monetary unit.

💡 If credits are money in your app, then you can also discount prices in credits. To do so, enable the "Discount" value on the Settings page. With "Discount" turned on, all discounts you set in a plan will apply to both monetary and credit prices.

Both users and companies can get the credits. There are two ways how to do it:

Your app has two different types of credits: expiring and permanent. Expiring credits are given according to the membership plan and can be used only during the plan period. Permanent credits can be used at any time, assigned by the administrator, or bought along with credit options. An administrator can give or deduct the permanent or expiring credits at any time on the Community page.

There are multiple use cases of a credit system for your business. For example:

Use credits as a negotiation instrument. Instead of giving a permanent discount on Rooms, you can offer your users a few booking hours for free each month. You can make the price in credits to your meeting rooms and assign necessary credits according to the membership plan. Once your users receive the credits, they can see the "Personal Credits" or "Company Credits" payment method upon making a booking. Once they use up free credits, they can continue paying you with a card.

It's common to have day passes that allow you to visit the space several times per week or month. Use Desks to let your users "check in" by booking a desk with credits upon arrival. Enable the price in credits to your desks and assign necessary credits according to the membership plan. Users simply go to Desks and pay in credits.

While external users can pay with money, you can allow your members to apply for events by paying with credits. Create an event, choose "Purchase" in the "Application Type," and specify the price in credits.

Accept cashless and cardless payments with credits for any product you create: sell food, drinks, merch, etc. To enable it, just create a product and choose "Purchase" in the "Application Type" > specify the price in credits.

If your users request a refund on the monetary transaction in your app, suggest they accept the exact equivalent in permanent credits to keep on their balance. This way, you retain your users and allow them to keep credits for future payments in your app. Administrators can always add permanent credits via Community > user/company's profile > Credits page.
