## Topping Up Usage Meter Balance

The Credits benefit adds units to a customer's Usage Meter balance at different moments based on the kind of product they buy.

### Subscription Products

The customer receives the unit amount specified by the benefit at the start of every subscription cycle, monthly or yearly.

### One-Time Products

The customer receives the unit amount specified by the benefit a single time at purchase.

## Carrying Over Unused Credits

You can opt to carry unused credits forward into the following billing cycle. This means that when a customer doesn't exhaust all of their credits within a billing cycle, the leftover credits roll into their balance for the next cycle. To turn on this behavior, tick the "Rollover unused credits" checkbox when creating or editing the Credits benefit.

<Note>
  Changing the rollover setting for a benefit only affects credits issued after
  the change. Credits already issued remain unaffected.
