Store credit is a reward you give your customers as real, spendable value. It can be earned automatically through a reward rule or granted manually, and it lands directly in the customer's wallet. At checkout, the balance is used as a payment method, in full or in part, with no promo code to enter.
For the customer, it feels like money they already own. For you, it's a reward that keeps value inside your store.

No. The credit sits in the customer's wallet and is applied automatically at checkout as a payment method. There's nothing to copy, remember, or type in, which removes the friction that usually comes with redeeming a reward.
