POST /promotional_credits/deduct

This API call can be used to deduct promotional credits for a customer. Learn more about Promotional Credits.

For example, if a customer has a credit balance of $20, if you pass the amount as $5, then the customer's credit balance would become $15.

If you do not pass any amount as the input parameter then, it will deduct the whole available amount from the credit balance.
