credit system

[arctic vault]

Hi everyone,

I'm working on a custom storefront using MedusaJS, where I want to implement a credit system that customers can use when making purchases. My goal is to allow users to apply their credits to reduce the total price of their cart.

However, I haven't found an API in MedusaJS that allows me to modify the cart total based on the customer's available credits. Any guidance or suggestions on how I can implement this?

Thank you!

Also keen to see this implemented. Let me know if you've made any progress?

hi @arctic vault - the easiest way is to create your own API endpoint and use it instead of built-in adding to the cart (or making an order). You can then do whatever you want when the person tries to add to the cart (or makes an order) - for instance check the balance of the credits, take the current price and reduce it based on the available credits.

Ah yeah, that would be a nice approach. Would be good to have it as an official Medusa module or plugins though. I’m happy to chip in with costs for an open implementation

my company has already experience with overwriting price (e.g. we introduced customizable products) so this case shall be similar. We are open for commercial cooperation if needed or semi-commercial (DM me in any case)
