Credits

Credits are GS Poetry's in-app currency for reach and generosity: tipping poets, boosting your poems, and gifting other members. As a rough guide, 50 credits is about $1. Your wallet lives under Settings → Credits. Full guide: Understanding credits →

Engaged poets earn credits for what they already do — daily check-ins, poems readers validate (reads, likes, responses, Trending), thoughtful comments, a growing following, streaks, and achievements. GS Pro members also receive 100 credits every month. Earning unlocks after you publish 10 poems of 30+ words, are a member 30 days, and write 10 thoughtful comments — and you get a 25-credit bonus when you clear it.

Yes. Packs are one-time purchases (never a subscription) and never expire:

• 50 credits for $1.00
• 250 credits for $4.99
• 1,250 credits for $19.99 (+25% bonus)
• 3,000 credits for $39.99 (+50% bonus)

The volume bonus kicks in at the $19.99 pack. Buy them from Settings → Credits.

Four things: tipping a poet from any poem, boosting any public poem of yours into extra clearly labeled stream slots for 7 days, resurfacing a poem at least a month old into those same slots for 48 hours, and gifting credits to other poets.

Tips come in three preset amounts — 25, 50, or 100 credits — sent right from a poem. The poet keeps every credit; GS Poetry takes nothing.

Members on the free week earn credits normally but can't spend or gift them until they subscribe. The 100 monthly GS Pro credits also start with your first real payment. This keeps the credit economy fair.

Your balance and history are private — only you ever see your own wallet, never anyone else's. Credits are a closed loop: they never convert back to cash and there's no cash-out. Every movement, including any adjustment, shows in your wallet History with nothing hidden.
