Credits usage
The credits have been made in order to quantify the usage of a server.
The server real cost is directly relied to the hourly server credits consumption. The more a server
cost, the more hourly credits are needed to run it.
In fact, the servers cost real money and need to be funded. That's why you need credits to run a server.
How to get credits
Free credits
There are currently three ways to get free credits. Different ways are available either on the website and on the mobile applications.
Website
To get access to free credits on the AxentHost website, navigate to the Credits page.
You will have access to two ways to get free credits : Claim & Offerwalls
The first "Claim" option will redirect you to a specific page, giving access to 15 free credits per hour.
The second "Offerwalls" option will redirect you to a list of offerwalls, giving access to nearly unlimited free credits. To get those free credits, you will need to make specific actions. Each offer is different and will ask you to play games, answer surveys, register on websites... And will give you credits on each completion.
Mobile applications
The AxentHost mobile applications are providing a new way to get free credits : rewarded ads.
You might have already encountered rewarded ads on mobile games to get access to in game bonuses.
Every ad will
give you 3 credits.
While it is not currently available for IOS users, Android users will still get access to the same offerwalls as
on the website.
Paid credits
You might want to get access to more credits and buy some. To get more credits, navigate to the "Credits page" and choose any of the credits packs. This is a good way to get a lot of credits in no time without having to claim every hour to keep your server running.
