Time credits let you give booking time to customers as plans or products benefits. You can control how much time credit customers get and add it as a one-off to a customer's account too. The way customers are able to use the time credits they get as benefits will depend on the settings of each time credit.
All time credits you create in Nexudus require a resource type that you should define before creating time credits and add them as plan and product benefits. Resource types are just a set of resources grouped together for pricing and credit purposes.
For example, you include 60 minutes of booking time to all customers signed up to one of your plans, but you only want customers to be able to use this time credit to book you hot-desks or small meeting rooms. In this scenario, you will need a resource type that includes all your hot-desks and small meeting rooms.
