Transfer Credits

Transfer credits between Software NGFW pools in the same account or a different account.

From the Customer Support Portal (CSP), transfer credits to a credit pool in the same account, between credit pools from the same contract, or to a credit pool in a different account that you can access.

Credits must be transferred between the pools within the same contract (parent/child).
