# Prevent members from booking if they don't have booking credits

This validation rule prevent members without any money credit to book resources. Contacts can still book resources with or without credit.

          This rule doesn't check if members have enough money credits to cover the price of their booking.

          

It is simply a way to ensure they have some money credit (above 0) in their account before letting them book.
