2. Community Credits:
Community credits do not carry any cash value. Community Credits are used for a specific purpose which is requesting comments or feedback. You can receive the comments and feedback your site needs and pay with Community Credits.
2.1. Ways in which you can obtain Community Credits:
You can earn community Credits by leaving comments on SiteComments or by leaving Feedback in SiteFeedback.
As mentioned in the Cash Credits section, for every two comments you leave on SiteComments, you receive one Cash Credit and one Community Credit.
However, for feedback on SiteFeedback, you do not receive Cash Credits, only Community Credits. In other words, if you leave two feedbacks, you receive two community credits.
To start earning Community Credits and Cash Credits by leaving comments on the sites of other members, click here. You must click "Offer Comments," as seen in the picture below.

3. Transfer Credits:
Wealthy Affiliate allows you to send or receive Community Credits to and from other members. This might be useful if you want to help a friend or a new member. You can send them Credits they may use for receiving feedback or comments. To transfer credits, click here. Then click "Transfer Credits," as seen in the picture below.
It just takes three simple steps to transfer Credits:
- Choose a recipient: Type in the box the username of the member to whom you want to transfer credits. Once the user appears on the screen, click over it. The name and surname of that user will appear on a box on the right.
- Slide over the bar until de exact amount of Community Credits appears.
- Check the total of credits you will send and click the green "Transfer" button. You are done! Your friend receives the Community Credits instantaneously.
Update Sept 2019: There was a time here at Wealthy Affiliate when you could also transfer Cash Credits (as seen in the picture above). But that option is no longer available. Now, you can only transfer Community Credits.
I hope you have enjoyed this training. Now that you know the types of credits used at WA and know how to obtain them, all you have to do is go out there and get them.
I wish you earn a lot of Cash Credits, Affiliate Credits, and Community Credits!
