What Credits means in its world

Credits turn Starfield's exploration into a set of practical purchases. A new ship module, a weapon modification, resources for an outpost or a better spacesuit can all compete for the same balance.

Missions, survey data, cargo and found equipment are common ways to build that balance. Vendor inventory and available services depend on location, so a route should name the system or city instead of treating every shop as identical.
