Understanding Credit Flow

​
Credit Hierarchy

Partner Account (Total Pool)
  └── Allocated to Events
        └── Consumed by Generations
  └── Allocated to Clients
        └── Allocated to Client Events
              └── Consumed by Generations

​
Credit Allocation Rules

  1. Purchase Credits: Add to your partner account balance
  2. Allocate to Event: Move credits from your balance to specific event
  3. Event Consumption: End users consume event credits for generations
  4. Cannot Reclaim: Once allocated to events, credits can’t be returned to main pool
Plan Carefully: Only allocate as many credits as needed per event. Over-allocation locks credits in unused events.
