Credits are the in-game currency of DarkSpace. Using them, players can purchase various enhancements and consumables to give their ships an edge in battle and boosted performance.

• Ship enhancements - These enhancements alter the performance of a ship in one or more ways.
• Ship consumables - These items provide an instant effect and refill a vital resource pool (Energy or Jump drive fuel).
• Ally ship consumables - These items, on use, spawn a random ship which will follow and support the player. They can be ordered to do specific tasks.

Coupons

Coupons are unique 25-character alphanumeric codes which can be redeemed for Credits and prestige. They are generated by the DarkSpace Administration and distributed to players in the form of event rewards or for commemorating special events. Occasionally, compensations to players are also made via coupon distribution.

Coupons are redeemed by going to the player Profile on the DarkSpace website, via the "Redeem Coupon" link at the top. The coupon code is entered into the 5 text boxes that appear in the link window. After redeeming, the rewards associated with the particular code are transferred to the player's account.

Normally, coupons are given to players through the website system-generated E-mails. Players are advised to check their E-mail accounts associated with DarkSpace every few days after announcement of coupon distributions are made. Some delay is expected, and regretted, in cases where generating and sending of large quantities of E-mails may take upto a few days to complete.

Credit Transfers

Players, while in-game, have the facility of sending Credits to other players. To do so, select the player's ship in-game and click on the "Transfer Credits" button near the bottom-right (with a $ picture).
