I had a coupon of $100 and decided to create a droplet. I had to add my credit card for this. Now it has been a day since I create the droplet, but I still have my money untouched. Are they taking that off my credit on DigitalOcean after a month or are they charging my card first?

When you first add your card a pre-auth may appear on your account for $1. This is done to ensure your card is active and these funds should be available again in your bank account after a couple days. With $100 credit on your account no charges will be made to your card until you have used up your credit.
