So you want to know how to obtain those coveted credit coupons in Genshin Impact? Well, you‘ve come to the right place.
As a veteran Genshin player and gaming enthusiast, I‘m going to walk you through exactly how to find, earn, and spend these valuable coupons for maximum rewards.
What Are Credit Coupons and Why Do You Want Them?
New to version 4.1, credit coupons are a special currency in Genshin Impact earned by completing certain quests around the Fortress of Meropide.
You‘ll want to collect as many coupons as possible, because they can be exchanged for incredibly useful items including:
- Character/weapon ascension materials
- Talent level-up materials
- Premium dishes, fishing bait
- Artifact boxes with guaranteed 5-stars!
- Furnishings for your Serenitea Pot
- And more!
So credit coupons provide access to rare goods otherwise difficult or impossible to obtain normally through gameplay.
Trust me, you‘ll want to rack up as many credit coupons as you can. So let‘s dive into each quest you need to complete to start filling your wallet!
Step-By-Step Walkthroughs for All Credit Coupon Quests
There are 10 special daily commission style quests that reward credit coupons when finished. Here are in-depth guides for completing each one:
Safe Operation (20 coupons)
This quest starts by talking to Galvaryet near the main fort entrance. He‘ll ask for help fixing some broken gear drivetrains.
Select "Offer to help" and head to the waypoint marker on your map. You‘ll see a puzzle with a lift and some gear cogs.
The key is to position the cogs so they properly connect and rotate the main gears operating the lift. Don‘t be afraid to experiment! Once the gears start moving the lift, you‘ve got it right.
Here‘s how I solved it on the first try:

Dead End (20 coupons)
For this quest, talk to Galvaryet again and ask if there‘s anything else you can help with.
He‘ll mention a strange sound coming from the sealed eastern tunnel that needs investigating.
Head to the tunnel entrance marked on your map – you won‘t be able to enter yet. But you‘ll hear a weird noise coming from inside.
Report back to Galvaryet. He recommends getting Nizami to crawl through a gap and explore the tunnel.
Find Nizami near the Rag and Bone Shop and convince him to check out the tunnel.
Let Galvaryet know about Nizami‘s findings to complete the quest and obtain 20 more credit coupons!
Fists of Fury (30 coupons)
Speak to Nizami again near the Rag and Bone shop. He‘s being bullied by some boys led by December.
Offer to teach them a lesson by defeating December in a fight at the market location.
You‘ll have 2 minutes to defeat December and his lackeys. Focus on the weaker ones first, then fight December 1v1.
Use food buffs if you need – December is tough! Once you win, Nizami will reward 30 credit coupons!
A Raw Deal (20 coupons)
Find December sitting on a crate. After losing, he asks you to gather ingredients to make Nizami an apology fruitcake.
Collect 3 Flatfruit, 2 Sugardew, and 1 Glacier Lily and bring them to December.
Hand them over to receive 20 more credit coupons!
Treat the Symptoms (30 coupons)
Search for Lechlade near the Production Zone. He‘s a doctor needing medicine to cure a fort illness.
Gather 3 Mistgrass Pollen bundles and 2 Holyrood Dewdrop vials from around the Liffey Region.
Bring them to Lechlade and he‘ll provide 30 credit coupons!
Chit-Chat (20 coupons)
Find Nakul in the Housing Block. He has a crush on Nelly but doesn‘t know how to approach her.
Give Nakul some confidence advice about just being himself and speaking honestly.
For the relationship help, Nakul will reward 20 credit coupons!
Unfinished Task (40 coupons)
Locate Nelly near the Executive Bureau taking pictures. Offer to help charge a nearby Transposer.
Defeat Energy Coalescences until the Transposer is fully charged.
Report back to Nelly for 40 credit coupons!
The Art of Negotiation (20 coupons)
Speak to Sajal at the Rag and Bone Shop. Ask about being a better negotiator.
He recommends buying The Art of Negotiation book…but then gifts you a free copy!
Adding the book to your inventory completes the quest for 20 coupons.
Every Debt Has a Creditor (30 coupons)
Galvaryet needs help repaying a merchant debt. Gather 2 Mistgrass Stalk bundles and 3 Starsliver chunks.

The Future of Credit Coupons
Right now, credit coupons are only available during the 4.1 update through these limited quests. We don‘t know if they‘ll be rotated out in the future.
Based on feedback, Mihoyo could add more permanent quests or events rewarding coupons. I could also see them expanding redemption items or introducing coupon alternatives.
For now, make the most of this coupon opportunity while you can in case they go away someday! Hoard and spend them wisely.
