# Funding Your name.com Account

> How to fund your account using Account Credit via ACH or wire transfer.

To ensure uninterrupted access to name.com services and enable seamless transactions, clients are encouraged to utilize **Account Credit**. This approach simplifies financial operations and improves control over ongoing domain and digital asset management.

## Overview: Account Credit

Account Credit is a prepayment mechanism that allows funds to be securely stored within your name.com account. These funds are automatically applied to future purchases, including domain registrations, renewals, and associated services.

**Key advantages**

* Streamlined checkout experience
* Improved budget forecasting and control
* Centralized transaction management
* Priority processing for funded accounts

For additional reference, see the support article: [Adding Account Credit to your name.com account](https://www.name.com/support/articles/205188968-adding-account-credit-to-your-name-com-account).

<Info>
  If you're integrating via API, you can programmatically monitor credit using:

  * [Account Info: Check Account Balance](/api/v1/reference/account-info/check-account-balance)
  * [Account Credit Balance Change](/api/v1/reference/webhook-notifications/account-credit-balance-change)
