* **Submission Restrictions**:

### 🛒 How Organizers Purchase Credits

Organizers purchase credits via the **Tournament Admin**, in the same area where they submit tournaments to the season.

If an organizer doesn’t have enough credits, they’ll be prompted to purchase a credit package before submission.

### 💰 Fee Breakdown for Credit Purchases

Whenever an organizer purchases credits, the total cost includes:

| **Fee Type**          | **Details**                                         |
| --------------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
| **Payment Processor** | Stripe or PayPal fees                               |
| **Scoreholio Fee**    | 5% of the purchase amount (minimum $2 per purchase) |

> 💡 **Pro Tip:** Create **larger credit packages** to minimize the per-credit cost. Smaller transactions can result in higher fees relative to the value purchased.
