Understand credits

How membership allotments, package credits, gift balance, and class-type eligibility affect booking.

8 min readUpdated Jun 18, 2026

Tides booking is credit-aware. The platform checks the client, the selected class type, capacity, intake requirements, and available credit before it creates a booking.

Credit order

Membership allotments are used before package credits. Package credits are selected according to the studio's configured priority rule, usually by the soonest expiration.

What clients should check

  • The class type attached to the credit matches the session being booked.
  • The package or membership is active and not expired.
  • The remaining count is high enough for the booking.
  • The account email matches the email used for purchase.

What admins should check

  • Confirm identity before adjusting credit state.
  • Check active packages, memberships, gift balance, and recent bookings together.
  • Use comp, cash, refund, or adjustment actions according to what actually happened.
  • Leave a reason that makes sense in the audit log.
