Use the Welcome Tour and Daily Credits
Learn the main Runner areas from the welcome tour and claim a daily credit reward when it is available.
What this covers: You will leave the welcome tour knowing where core tools live and understand what changes after a daily check-in.
Use this page when Runner opens Welcome to Runner or when Earn free credits is visible.
Entry paths
- Welcome tour: Runner opens Welcome to Runner automatically for an eligible account. The tour has no permanent navigation entry.
- Daily credits: Workspace sidebar → Earn free credits.
Before you start
- The welcome tour and daily reward can be absent when the account is not eligible or the step is already complete.
- Read the amount, expiry, and claim state in the current dialog rather than relying on an older screenshot.
- Eligible new users currently receive 150 welcome credits that do not expire. They are separate from daily check-in credits and can already be in the balance before the daily claim button is selected.
Follow the welcome tour
The six tour steps introduce building and previewing, Creative Studio, Skills, Dropshipping, Store Operations, and Design Mode.
| Control | What happens |
|---|---|
| Step dots | Jumps directly to the selected tour step. |
| Back | Returns to the previous step. It is disabled on the first step. |
| Next | Opens the next step. |
| Enlarge video | Opens the current demonstration at a larger size when the video is ready. |
| Skip tour or close | Dismisses the tour without changing the store. |
| Start building | Finishes the last step and closes the tour. |
- Read the purpose of the current area.
- Play or enlarge the demonstration if it helps.
- Select Next, Back, or a step dot to move through the tour.
- Select Start building on the final step, or Skip tour when you are ready to work.
The tour is instructional. It does not run a Skill, import a product, or change a storefront.
Claim a daily reward
The dialog can show the current streak, today's available credits, the reward expiry date, credits granted in the current cycle, and the next milestone.
When Runner shows Welcome Gift, the message confirms that the 150 welcome credits are already in the balance. The daily button claims a separate reward; it does not claim the welcome grant again.
Closing Welcome Gift does not remove welcome credits that are already in the balance. Closing a still-claimable daily check-in leaves that separate daily reward unclaimed.
- Confirm that the dialog says a reward is claimable.
- Review the amount and expiry date shown.
- Select Check in today or the visible claim button.
- Wait for the claimed state before closing the dialog.
Troubleshooting
| State | Meaning | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Claim button available | Today's reward can be claimed for the workspace shown. | Select it once and wait for confirmation. |
| Checked in / claimed | Today's reward has already been added. | Return on another eligible day. |
| Reward unavailable | The account is not currently eligible or no claim is due. | Close the dialog; do not assume a credit was added. |
| Claim failed | Runner did not confirm the reward. | Keep the dialog open and try again later. |
Closing a claimable reward leaves it unclaimed. Check the displayed expiry before deciding to return later.
