It is a common practice to offer a free printing allowance to the members of a coworking space. OfficeRnD can be integrated with eZeep to automatically add a one-off fee whenever a member uses the printers. You can now grant members a number of coins that would be automatically used to cover the price of printing fees.
To find out more about the eZeep integration, please take a look at this article.

Using Coins as Printing Credits
If you have an eZeep integration, each time a member uses a printer, one-off fees will be added to their profile for each page. You can now set up a plan to grant a number of coins that will be automatically used to pay for these fees until they are used up. Printing Credits like these can also be added manually or through a one-off plan on your shop.
Granting Printing Credits Manually
When adding Coins manually through the member or company page, you need to fill out the following fields:
- Credits - enter the number of printing credits you'd like to grant.
- Type - Select the Coins type.
- Recurrence - choose whether this is a monthly allowance or a one-time set of credits that can be used until they are used up.
- Valid For - in this drop-down, select the One-off Fees option.
- A new drop-down will appear on the right of the Valid For field. In it, select all Billing Plans you have set up that should be covered by the Printing Credits.
- Valid From - choose the date after which the Printing Credits can be used.
- Hit Add.
Granting Printing Credits as a part of a Billing Plan
You can add a monthly printing allowance as a part of a billing plan, or set up a one-off billing plan that grants a number of printing credits once. When you are adding new or editing a billing plan, open the Credits tab to add printing credits.
- Credits - enter the number of printing credits you'd like to grant.
- Type - Select the Coins type.
- For - in this drop-down, select the One-off Fees option.
- A new drop-down will appear on the right of the Valid For field. In it, select all Billing Plans you have set up that should be covered by the Printing Credits.
Once a member purchases such a plan, the printing fees will be added as Coins that are only applicable to printing fees.
You can prevent one-off fees based on a specific plan from being paid for with coins by enabling the Plan cannot be paid with the coins option in the plan's General tab.
