Getting the reseller credit-to-term rules in writing

Practical steps, clear explanations and a useful place to start.

A credit quantity does not explain how many customer subscriptions can be issued until the credit-to-term rules are known. Ask how each customer term uses credits, whether extensions are handled differently and what happens after a cancellation or reversal. Hot IPTV's published package totals alone do not establish that conversion. Keep the agreed mapping with the package record and use it consistently when planning stock or quoting customers.

Why it matters

A credit count becomes useful only after the deduction for each customer action is known. Package totals alone do not state how many renewals, trials or annual accounts can be issued. Recording the actual mapping protects forecasts and customer quotations from silently adopting another provider's conversion or restoration rules.

Work through the steps

  1. Request the current deduction rules for every customer term you intend to sell, including renewal, trial and reversal behaviour where those actions are available.
  2. Record the mapping's date and source with the purchased credit package, separating the number of credits from the number of customer months it may represent.
  3. Use the confirmed rules in pricing and stock calculations, and revisit them whenever the upstream provider announces a relevant change to account or panel terms.

What to avoid

Another provider's credit table can corrupt forecasts and customer promises. Do not infer deductions from package names or assume creation, renewal and reversal behave alike without current rules for the actual panel and intended account actions.

The useful takeaway

Obtain the deduction schedule for intended terms and actions and retain its date and source. Update calculations when rules change rather than borrowing another provider's conversion or promising unconfirmed credit behaviour to customers.
