# Recurring Store Credits

**Recurring Store Credits is a benefit that gives your members a monetary credit to use in your shop on an automatic timed basis.**&#x20;

For example, you may choose to give your members a $5 credit every month for the duration of their membership.  This keeps your customers coming back to make purchases so they don't feel like they're 'leaving money on the table'.

You are also able to configure Recurring Store Credits to be given to all your members on the same day every month. For example, you could give Recurring Credits to all members on the 15th of each month.

{% hint style="info" %}
Pro Tip: Give your customers a small, monthly recurring credit as an incentive to get them to browse new products or collections.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Timing of frequency based credits is based on "number of days", not by month.**

When you set up the Recurring Credits benefit, you will see frequency options such as 30 days, 60 days, etc. This credit timer will not take into account if a month has 31 days.

For example: if you set a 30 day frequency to begin on July 1, your member will receive credits on July 1 and July 31st, since there are 30 days between.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Timing of date-specific credits can only be set from days 1 - 28**

When you select to use a specific date to drop credits into member accounts you can select up until day 28 of each month, you are not able to select days 29-31 due to differences in months.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="danger" %}
**We highly recommend you reach out to our customer success team before changing from frequency based credits to specific-date credits to ensure your strategy is implemented properly.**&#x20;

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.inveterate.com/help-center/guides/program-setup/benefits/credit-based-benefits/recurring-store-credits.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
