I signed up to 1p mobile then I ordered 3 more sims and I was given £5 credit on each sim but what's the credit for.

The £5 credit you got initially was for 'referring' someone else to 1pMobile.
(Because you ordered 3 more SIMs)
Slightly strange that your just 'referring' yourself, but that's what they do.

When I ordered the extra sims I did it through my account so now they are all linked to my account and share the same payment details, password and email address.

Yes, and they still would have given each one a £5 'referrers' fee.

I recently ordered a SIM with unlimited data for £12.50 and it came with £5 credit on it.
And I also got an extra £5 paid into my main account.

So, you should also have got a £15 fee paid into your main account.

When I go on my account it shows my referrals and the bonus for the 3 sims is pending but it does say we will reward you with a £5 bonus for referring them once their account has been live for 30 days . When I ordered the extra sims I didn't know about the credit so is it worth having if my payments are set to recurring.

OK, I'm a bit puzzled by this. Do you get the £5 credit for simply buying a another SIM from your account, or do you have to go via your referral link? Thanks.

On your account, there is a referral link, something like JxxxxxxR where x = a number. When someone uses your referral number to ask for a SIM, and tops it up, around 30 days later you will receive £5 into your 1p account as credit.

I don't know about you actually buying additional SIMs, as the bonus/reward is called Refer a Friend.

Incidentally, 1p Mobile are currently offering 50 GB with unlimited UK calls/texts for £10/month on a non contract 30 day rolling basis, with up to 14 GB available for EU/Channel Is/I of Man roaming. The downside of 1p is the lack of an "App", which is a bit tedious, and their very sluggish customer service.

Thanks, I realise that, but an earlier post seemed to suggest that you also got £5 credit if you just purchased another SIM from within your account (and presumably not via the referral link?).
