Traffic Pricing

Traffic prices are set with plan edit wizards.

• Free*: GB of traffic you allow your users to run up during one traffic month free of charge.
  Free makes up initial traffic limit.

  Note: free GB of traffic set explicitly for two and more month billing period are not divided by the duration of the billing period in months.
  E.g.: setting 10GB free for two month billing period, you allow your customers to run each month 10GB (not 5GB) without being charged.

• Recurrent: payment accrued each traffic month for each GB of difference between the traffic limit and free units. If the traffic limit is the same as free units, no recurrent fee is charged.
  If users increase their traffic limit in the middle of a traffic month, they are accrued absolute (not prorated) recurrent fee for the whole traffic month.
  E.g.: increasing traffic limit by 5GB on the 15th day of the traffic month means that the user will be immediately charged the recurrent fee for the 5GB for the whole traffic month.
  Recurrent payments are non-refundable if users fail to use the reserved traffic.
• Extra or Usage: overlimit payment accrued at the end of each traffic month for each GB consumed over traffic limit.
  The pricing for extra traffic is fractional, per KB. So if you set the price of $1/GB, and the user consumes only 10MB overlimit, he will be charged $0.01.

* When increasing plan's free traffic, use mass mail to let the customers under this plan know they need to increase their traffic limit to new free in their user CP without any charges.
* When decreasing plan's free traffic, use mass mail to let the customers under this plan know they need to decrease their traffic limit to new free, otherwise they will be charged recurrent fee.
