Hi t_tangent
In the original letter from Korg (near the bottom) there is a code.
Just cut and paste that and send to the recipient.
They then input the code during the checkout process (which deducts the purchase from the remaining credits until none are left).
Seemed to work smoothly when I gave my credits.
That's good of you to volunteer them - thank you!

Basically, you have a code valid for $xxx depending on what you bought in the past. The maximum amount this voucher can give you is $750. So Korg sent you an email with a code looking like "asfjhwq3iu79fa87" and a value attached. This can be redeemed when you buy Kronos EXs or KRS expansions via the online shop at korg.com/kronos.
So if you're not going to buy a Kronos, these codes will be useless to you since they can only be used to purchase Kronos expansions.
The vouchers can be redeemed by anyone. You don't need to be the original recipient of the codes to use them. So basically, any Kronos owner can log in, select Kronos expansions to buy, and use the code given to him when checking out. The code can be used partially, fully or as part of a larger sum to pay. For example, if you have a $100 voucher, you can use it to buy just a $50 bank (if you have everything else), two $50 banks, or a $150 bank with $50 remaining to pay via visa/mastercard.
It's up to you to decide how you give this, but if you don't have a buddy who has a Kronos, then I suggest giving them to people who register an interest.
Myself and mohous have benefited, so X-Trade and BasariStudios are next. And so on...

Am I´m doing something wrong or can´t I buy now the libraries and maybe later on a Kronos?
From what I understand, the Oasys libraries are now free. Not sure exactly how you get them, but you can unlock those that used to be for sale.
This means the codes are only valid to purchase Kronos expansions since you don't have to purchase free Oasys expansions.

My post was may a bit missunderstading... I have the 750 § code from Korg, ´cos I bought all Oasys expansions.
My Oasys is working fine, no need to buy a Kronos yet.
But I thought, that I can use my credit now to buy the Kronos expansion on stock to have them if I later have to buy a Kronos when my Oasys is dying.
But this does not seem to be possible .... funny again the Oasys users are screwed ... buy a Kronos even if your Oasys is working or you cannot use your credits?
If this is so then I´m of course giving away my credits for free, because I won´t give this company any cent more
best regards

I've already received two sets of codes actually, so have one set to pass on.
Many thanks to those generous people.

Hi Cello and Francois, Thanks for the replies. Can you tell me the rough date when that original letter was sent out, as the only letter I can find here at the moment is dated July 29th 2011, and there are no codes in this letter. But I am sure I received another letter which did have some mention of codes valid for $xxx somewhere, and the envelope had a gold embossed Korg logo. I just cant find it, but will keep looking. I wonder if they emailed a copy as well and will look through that as well.
Cheers

Away
@t-tangent: I think you got your code with an email not with a letter; that was the way Korg sent it to me. On 28.3. they sent again the email with prolongiation until 31th of may.maybe that helps
best regards

Oops - SoulBe is right - wasn't in the letter; was in an email! I received my email from Korg on 20 October 2011.

Hi Soulbe,
Haha, yes, I just found it now.

It says these are credits for purchasing Korg-produced KRONOS Sound Libraries only so hopefully that sounds correct.
Anyway, thanks for that, and the next question is who is next in line to receive these. I think Basari was the last person to ask when I posted,or was there anyone before.
Cheers guys

Hi Cello, yes, just found it
Thanks though, it reminded me to check too

Yeah, Basari is the next on the line... Now how about every member who has got the codes reply with the amount received and we begin setting a minimal and maximum amount to give? This way, everyone can get some advantage and we make sure everyone has the same fair benefit

I think Basari got some
