15 When are KeyCredits deducted?
KeyCredits are required to operate access control systems, for instance to assign or change
access authorisations.
KeyCredits are exclusively deducted in the event of quantity credit. If there is an available
time-based credit, the system uses this time-based credit and the quantity credit remains
unchanged.
KeyCredits are deducted in the following cases:
• assigning and creating new authorisations
• changing and creating existing authorisations
• reactivating deactivated media, providing the authorisations of the deactivated
medium are to be maintained
• replacing smartphones if authorisations will be transferred to the new smartphone
• activating the AirKey Cloud Interface (API).
KeyCredits for new authorisations or changes to authorisations are only deducted once the
medium has been created as part of the last step. In this process, one KeyCredit is deducted
per creation process. You can also set or change several authorisations at once – in this
process, only one KeyCredit is deducted.
No KeyCredits are deducted for deleting authorisations or deactivating or emptying media.
