How credit is used
Renewals: credit pays a renewal invoice automatically, but only if your balance covers the whole invoice. If it doesn't, nothing is taken automatically.
Any invoice, by hand: open the invoice, click Pay Now and choose Account Credits. If you don't have enough, use Apply Credits and Continue to use what you have and pay the rest another way.
Credit can't be used to buy more credit, and it can't be withdrawn as cash.
