Cred follows the same word structure as money. You can have money, you can need more money, you can be out of money, you can have lots of money, but you cannot have a wallet full of moneys.

Therefore, different types of cred are different types of cred. If I have several different currencies, I do not have many different moneys.
Sorry bout the break.

As far as the backend goes, "a cred" is what one gives someone else, and it can be tagged with different tags. One then receives a "cred score" for each tag, and in general.

However, common usage suggests that "cred" as a non-countable noun refers to the score.

Actually Mariam-Webster lists 'monies' as plural of 'money'

I'm fairly sure I've seen "monies" before. I have no idea where, but I feel like it's come up in my reading.
