You may sell credits to your site users. Your site users in turn may use the credits to buy something you are selling on the site. The credits are digital points stored on the user's account which the user is able to use for payment on your site where you have permitted credit as a means of payment.

The credit concept:

1. Admin creates and names credit packages.
2. Admin puts a price on the credit package so that for example, a credit package named "Personal Package" costs GHS20 (image below).
   
   
   
   
3. When a person buys this credit package which costs GHS20, the user in turn may receive  20 credits, that is credits worth GHS20 and the credit will be stored on the user's account on your site (image below).

4. Suppose an item you are selling on your site costs GHS20. If the user wants to buy that item on the site and you have permitted the use of credits as a payment option, then on the checkout page where the user is to make payment for the item, the user may select The FOJ Credits as a means of making payment and then click on "Make Payment" to pay for the item.
5. A user is allowed to make payment for an item only if the value of the credits on his account is equal to or greater than the price of the item he is trying to buy.
6. If a user buys an item worth for example GHS20 with his credit wallet, 20 credits, that is credits worth GHS20 are subtracted from his credits or his credit wallet.
   
7. If a user uses credits to make payment for an item and the value of the credits equals the the price of the item, then the payment may go through successfully right away without having to wait for admin's verification or approval.
