What is Free Credits?
Virtual credits awarded by social-casino games that use Credits as their primary currency.
In detail
Free credits are virtual currency in social-casino games that brand their economy around credits instead of chips or coins. Functionally identical to free chips and free coins - non-cashable, awarded through hourly bonuses, daily wheels, official posts, and promo codes - but the naming differs by game. Old Vegas Slots, Lucky Time Slots, GameTwist Slots (Twists), and a few others use credits as the primary currency name.

FAQ
Free Credits questions, answered
Which games use free credits instead of free chips or coins?
Old Vegas Slots, Lucky Time Slots, and a few smaller social casinos brand their currency as Credits. GameTwist Slots calls them Twists. Bingo Blitz uses Credits as a third currency alongside coins and power-ups. Mechanically they all work the same way as chips and coins.
Is there a difference between free credits, free chips, and free coins?
Functionally no. All three are non-cashable virtual currencies used to spin slots. The difference is purely the studio's branding choice. A credit in Old Vegas Slots and a chip in DoubleDown Casino fill the same role and have the same legal status (no cash value).
Can you transfer credits between social-casino games?
No. Currencies are siloed to each game and never transfer, even between sister titles from the same publisher. Your DoubleU Casino chips don't carry into DoubleU Bingo; your Old Vegas Slots credits don't carry into Lucky Time Slots.
