# Reward points benefit
Reward members with points for purchases and with those points, members can redeem them for store credits.
{% hint style="info" %}
If you are using customer accounts, store credit is delivered automatically to the customer account when the customer logs into your store. They can use it as a payment method at checkout.
{% endhint %}
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.
{% hint style="warning" %}
If you are using customer accounts, enable Store Credit on your store. [Follow the Store Credit setup instructions](/members-area/enabling-native-store-credit.md).
{% endhint %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://help.memberply.com/creating-membership-benefits/reward-points-benefit.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
