Membership & Credits

Core framing features are member-only. This chapter covers membership benefits, credits and referral rewards.

Membership status

• New accounts are non-members: the workbench is locked behind an “Activate membership” overlay;
• Once active, validity follows the purchased plan (see “My membership” for the expiry date; lifetime plans show “Lifetime”);
• Renewals stack onto the current expiry date.

Plans & prices

Plans are curated by the platform, often with limited-time discounts (applied automatically during the window):

• Duration (1 year / 3 years / lifetime);
• Price and limited-time discount price (applied automatically during the window);
• Bonus credits granted on activation.

See Purchase & Payment for the flow.

Credits

Earning credits:

• Plan purchase bonus;
• Referral rewards for inviting peers;
• Purchase rewards shared from invitees’ purchases.

Spending credits:

• Exchange for membership days: default 100 credits = 1 day (lifetime members excluded);
• Gift credits: enter the recipient’s mobile number (recipient must be an active member; cannot gift yourself; irreversible with confirmation).

Credits expire 1 year after being granted. “My membership” shows the valid balance and a full ledger (earned / spent / expired).

Referral

The bottom of “My membership” hosts the referral module:

• Copy your invite code / link (…/register?invite=CODE) and share it;
• When a friend registers through your link you earn the registration reward (default 500 credits, capped at 20 invitees);
• When they purchase a plan, both of you earn purchase-reward credits (rates configured by the platform);
• “My friends” lists invitees and reward history.

FAQ

• Can credits be cashed out? No — credits only exchange for membership days or gifts.
• What happens to credits after a refund? Refunds claw back credits issued by that order; membership days already used are not reclaimed.
• How are exchanged days added? They extend max(now, current expiry).
