π³Project Credits
Each project has a Credits balance β a per-project prepaid pool of HTR and/or DZR used to pay for on-chain operations: creating staking contracts, DAOs, crowdsales, and liquidity pools.
Open the Credits screen at /admin/credits (sidebar β Credits).

Why credits exist
Most Project Launch Tools actions are submitted by the project contract, not directly by your wallet. The project needs its own balance to cover those fees. The Credits screen is where you fund and reclaim that balance.
Current Balance
Two rows: HTR Balance and DZR Balance. Minimum HTR deposit is 100.00 HTR β smaller deposits are not accepted.
Deposit Credits
Add HTR or DZR to the project balance.
Pick Token Type (HTR or DZR).
Enter an Amount.
Click Deposit Credits, confirm in the wallet, sign with PIN.
The deposit goes from your connected wallet to the project's credit pool.
Withdraw Credits
Reclaim unused HTR or DZR. Each transaction can withdraw only one token type β withdraw HTR and DZR separately if needed.
Pick Token Type (HTR or DZR). The available balance is shown next to each option, and the Max link fills the amount field with the full balance.
Enter the amount to withdraw.
Click Withdraw Credits, confirm in the wallet.
The withdrawal goes back to your connected wallet.
HTR vs DZR β Which to Use?
DZR credits are preferred over HTR when both are available, as they typically have lower fees.
Practical guidance:
HTR: easier to obtain, especially on testnet (use the Faucet 100k HTR button in the sidebar).
DZR: lower per-action cost; keeps your project lean as it scales.
Most projects start with HTR for setup and refill in DZR once they hold some.
What credits get spent on
Any action that the project contract submits on-chain, including:
Creating a Liquidity Pool
Creating a Crowdsale / Launchpad
Setting up a DAO
Adding rewards to a Staking pool
Some token-management actions (when they require contract calls)
Wallet-paid actions β like the initial project creation, vesting deploy, or melt-authority transfer β are paid directly from the user's wallet, not from credits.
Best Practices
Top up before a busy launch week β pre-fund credits so a wallet hiccup doesn't block a planned action.
Use DZR once available β lower fees mean more operations per credit.
Withdraw before sunsetting a project β credits don't expire, but they're locked to the project until withdrawn.
Keep a buffer β leave at least one full transaction's worth in credits so urgent actions (pausing a sale, for example) don't fail.
Troubleshooting
Deposit Credits button is disabled
You're below the 100.00 HTR minimum, or amount field is empty
"Insufficient balance" on deposit
Top up your wallet HTR or DZR first
Action fails with "credits required"
The project pool ran dry β deposit more credits
Withdraw button disabled
Selected token's available balance is 0
