Summary

  1. Choose the required service usage level based on your anticipated volume. In our experience it's best to start small and work up!
  2. Log onto your account and add some credit against your preferred usage level. You choose how much ? the only thing we'd say is that there's a minimum commitment fee and you'll obviously need sufficient credit to get the job done. Pretty obvious really. You can change the commitment level when you next add credit to take advantage of cheaper data rates, although you can only change the level a maximum of once a month.
  3. We'll send an e-invoice confirming the purchase and you have the option of setting up an auto top-up. This is often good practice as it means that you don't have to worry about going through the process of logging on and buying every time your balance gets low.

We have 3 main pricing points for the service depending on the amount of data you require. The more the service is used then the cheaper the data ? it's as simple as that. Each service level has a daily commitment fee which ranges from $0.25 / £0.15 at the Starter level to $10.00 / £6.00 for our Enterprise service. Data usage is offset against the commitment fee until the commitment cost is covered, at which point credit will be deducted from the actual account balance.

You can move between different usage levels when you top up your balance, which you might do to take advantage of the better data rates on the higher usage service if, for example, you were planning to run through a data cleansing process where you know that you will be using lots of data. You can switch between usage levels up to a maximum of once a month.

When your balance gets down to the last 20%, 10% and 5% of the initial purchase price, you will be sent automated alerts. To top up you have the option of either buying online through our website or setting an auto top-up to ensure that your credits are added with the minimum of fuss.

We have special rates for charities and not-for-profits on proof of status.
