As you purchase more credits, your total spent on your account will increase. If you purchase the $10.00 credit package and then purchase the $15.00 credit package the next day, you will have a total spent value of $25.00, resulting in your account automatically being upgraded to Premium Status and all the perks that come with it.

Note: It is important to remember if you purchase a Donator Pin it will remove the total dollar amount of the Donator Pin. Example: If you purchase the $25.00 credit package your account will be upgraded to Premium, but if you buy a $10.00 Donator Pin, your total spent would be $15.00 resulting in the loss of your Premium Rank [PLEASE BE AWARE: YOUR BONUS CREDITS DO NOT COUNT TOWARDS Total Spent Value. Example: If you buy $50 worth of credits, you will receive 930 credits; however you wil only be able to spend 650 credits on pins!]
