# Mint Coupons

What is a Mint Coupon?

Every account in NMKR Studio has it's own account balance of Mint Coupons.\
These mint coupons will be used for [Manual Minting](https://docs.nmkr.io/nmkr-studio/minting/manual-minting), the [Airdropper](https://docs.nmkr.io/nmkr-studio/minting/airdropper), [editing tokens after they were minted](https://docs.nmkr.io/nmkr-studio/token/edit-after-mint-reveal) and to set up the [Royalties](https://docs.nmkr.io/nmkr-studio/project/royalties) for your project. \
\
Basically, you will need to buy some Mint Coupons for everything that is not minted on demand by your customer.<br>
