Credit Usage Best Practices
Plan Assessments Carefully
- Review credit requirements before creating assessments
- Choose appropriate assessment types based on requirements whether you need a Survey or a Quiz
- Survey is chosen when you want to collect information, opinions, or feedback from respondents. It is designed to gather data and insights for analysis.
- Quiz is to test knowledge, skills, or memory. Typically includes questions with definitive "right" and "wrong" answers
Monitor Credit Balance
- Regular checking of credit usage
- Track credit consumption patterns in the Billing Info>Usage History page
Credit Expiry
- Credits expire by the end of the cycle. For example: for monthly subscription plans credits are accumulated every month but expired en masse by the the end of the year cycle
- Unused credits are carried forward to the next month but expired by end of year cycle.
