Buying credits
The minimum is 10 dollars, the rate is 100 credits per dollar, and the bonus reaches 25 percent at the top tier.
Credits
A top up buys credits with a single payment, at 100 credits per dollar, from 10 to 1 000 dollars. No subscription is needed.
Where to buy
Click the credit balance in the top bar of the workspace. It opens account settings straight on the Credits tab. The Top up button opens the purchase window. The top up button in the top bar skips a step and opens that window directly.
The amount field is prefilled at 20 dollars. Four quick amounts sit beside it: 20, 50, 100 and 250. The summary underneath shows the base credits, the tier bonus, and the total you will receive.
The bonus ladder
The bonus is applied on the whole amount, not on the part above the threshold.
| You pay | Bonus | You receive |
|---|---|---|
| 10 to 49 dollars | none | 100 credits per dollar |
| 50 dollars | 5 percent | 5 250 credits |
| 100 dollars | 10 percent | 11 000 credits |
| 250 dollars | 15 percent | 28 750 credits |
| 500 dollars | 20 percent | 60 000 credits |
| 1 000 dollars | 25 percent | 125 000 credits |
The server recomputes the same ladder when it credits your account, so what the window shows is what lands.
What happens after you pay
The payment opens on the payment provider's page. Credits are added only when that payment comes back confirmed, not when the page opens. If no payment can be created, MaShop says so rather than failing silently.
Amounts outside the 10 to 1 000 range are refused outright by the server. It does not quietly round them into range, so a mistyped amount comes back as a refusal, not as a smaller purchase.
The credits land in your wallet. The base amount shows under Top up credits and the tier bonus under Bonus credits, though both come from the same underlying number.
Saving a card
You cannot store a card in MaShop without an active subscription. The Update button on the Billing tab is inert on a Free account, and says to subscribe first. A Free account that tops up regularly goes through the payment provider's form every time.
Automatic top up
The Billing tab offers an automatic top up with a threshold and an amount. Read the page on running out of credits before you rely on it. It does not charge your card.
