Hi,
i played my first PFS session recently at a convention, using a pre-gen character (lvl 4).
Now i have registered the code, and the session shows up on my profile.
I have also created a lvl 1 character.
We plan to visit another convention next month, alternatively i could visit a monthly session in my home town someday i fathom.
If i understand the rules correctly i can add the session to my new character. Can i spend the 150g starting money and add the 500g from the first adventure?
I would print a character sheet, fill in my stats, skills, feats etc and bring it to the next play session, together with the sheet i received from my first adventure, correct?

Welcome to PFS!
Indeed, if you are applying the Chronicle you gained from playing the pregen to a 1st level character you would get 500 gp, which can be added to the 150 starting gold that every character gets. It's a great way to start out a character.
I suggest making a folder or binder to keep everything together. Just mark a "1" in the box on the top right of your Chronicle Sheet. Then mark a "2" on your next Chronicle, and so on.
It takes 33xp to get to level 12 =)

I'll second Nefreet's recommendation to get a folder just for your character and chronicle sheets. Technically, you have to have those sheets with you whenever you play that character in the future, so that will make it easy to keep them in one place. And if you get into it and end up making more characters, having multiple folders will make them easier to keep track of which chronicles go with which character.
Hardly anyone ever looks, but sometimes, a GM will be looking for something specific and ask to see everyone's chronicle sheets, so you don't want to be caught without them. I know next week, I'll be GMing an adventure that has a possible special reward if you also played a previous adventure, so I'll be checking chronicle sheets of all my players to see who already played the earlier one.

Check out the Online Play forum for that sort of thing. I hear it works well!

The OP did specify he played a level 4 pregen, so doesn't he have to wait until his character hits 4th level to apply the credit? But 500gp is first tier gold. Shouldn't a 4th level pregen get out-of-tier gold for playing a tier 1-2 game? I'm probably missing something obvious here.Welcome to PFS!

You can reduce the gold rewards from a higher level pregen to 500 gp, and apply it to a 1st-level character instead of holding it for the higher level.

He would have the option to wait until his character is the same level as the pregen to apply the chronicle to his character. In that case, he would get whatever he would have normally received for playing that scenario at 4th level on the chronicle.
However, what he is doing is the second option when playing a non-1st level pregen, applying it to a 1st level character of his. When you do this, you lower the gold down to 500gp, but everything else on the chronicle stays the same.
