# Cashback benefit
Cashback is a reward that returns part of a member’s purchase as store credit. For example, a member who spends $100 with 5% cashback earns $5 in store credit they can use on their next order - encouraging them to shop again.
Note: If you are using customer accounts, the store credit will be delivered automatically as store credit in their customer account when they log into your store. To use the store credit, the customer just has to log in and then purchase their items. Then when they are on the checkout page, they can select the store credit as a form of payment.
If you are using legacy customer accounts, the store credit will be delivered automatically as a discount code in their member portal area. To use the store credit, the customer just has to purchase their items and then when they are on the checkout page, apply the discount codes.
**IMPORTANT: If you're using customer accounts, please enable Store Credit on your store.** [**Click here for instructions on how to do this.**](/members-area/enabling-native-store-credit.md)
