When you swap for credit, you get the prorated amount of your subscription--the total subscription price divided by the number of months you subscribed. When you swap that to membership credit, it just become dollars in your membership account that they tap before they charge your credit card or paypal account.i haven't done it in awhile but I believe you get the member credit and then it might automatically apply when you renew or add a month on? i'd just ask when you email to ask to switch to member credit.
The downside is that if you had, say, a 6-month subscription and swapped for credit, that credit wouldn't be quite enough to pay for a 1-month subscription. You'd have to pay a few bucks to make up the difference between the monthly price of a 6-month and 1-month subscription.
