Play credits are used to play videos on Kanopy. Each month your account receives 15 play credits.
A video uses a play credit once you press play at the start. Most videos have a 3 day viewing period where you can watch it as many times as you like without using another play credit. For the BBC TV series, you have 2 days to watch the entire season. If you need longer, you need to use another play credit. With The Great Courses, you have 30 days to watch an entire course.
