Earn Free Credits

Beyond your plan's monthly allowance, CloudAxis lets you build up a separate pool of bonus credits — up to 500 — through daily check-ins, one-time milestones, referrals, and sharing.

Daily check-in

Claim +5 credits once a day from the credits pill in the dashboard, or from Settings → Earn credits. Check in on 7 consecutive days and you get a streak bonus on top of the usual +5 on that 7th day. Missing a day resets the streak.

One-time milestones

A handful of milestones pay out once, the first time you reach them:

  • Verify your email
  • Add your first duty (beyond template defaults on hire)
  • Add a duty on a specialist
  • Set up your first standalone scheduled task
  • Returning on day 7

These are separate from the daily check-in streak bonus — you collect each milestone once, the first time you hit it, and never again after that.

Referrals and sharing

Invite others to CloudAxis through referrals, and share CloudAxis on X, to add more to your bonus pool. Both are ongoing ways to earn beyond the one-time milestones and the daily check-in.

How much you can hold

Bonus credits earned this way can build up to a stored maximum of 500. Once you're at the cap, keep using credits from your monthly allowance, or spend down your bonus credits, to make room for more.

Spending order

CloudAxis always spends your plan's monthly allowance first. Bonus credits from check-ins, milestones, referrals, and sharing are only spent after that monthly allowance runs out for the period — see credits & plans for how the two pools work together. Paid-plan operators should read the September 2026 list price changes for Growth and Max before they budget bonus credits against heavier browser duties.

Where to claim

Look for the credits pill near the top of the dashboard for a quick daily claim, or go to Settings → Earn credits for the full list of milestones, your referral link, and share options.

Why building this pool is worth it

Bonus credits don't expire the way a monthly allowance resets — they sit in reserve until you need them. That makes the daily check-in worth doing even on days you don't plan to use much: a few credits at a time adds up, and the streak bonus rewards coming back regularly rather than in one long session. They stretch further when duties route to the cheapest model that still completes the job — our cheap-tier Luna versus Haiku cost shootout measured both on the same SKU monitor task. If you route optional self-hosted backends alongside Luna duties, model list rates matter when bonus credits run low — compare self-hosted Llama per-million rates on CloudyBot before you scale experimental duties against your reserve pool.

Getting the most from milestones and referrals

New accounts naturally pick up most of the one-time milestones in the first week just by getting set up — adding your first duty, adding a duty on a specialist, scheduling a standalone task, and coming back on day 7 line up with the normal onboarding path. Default duties created when you hire Cloudia or a specialist do not count toward these bonuses. After that, referrals and sharing on X are the ongoing ways to keep adding to your bonus pool once the one-time milestones are behind you.
