New data charging mechanism

Dear OneBox users and partners, Starting today, the calculation mechanism for the “data” tariff has changed in OneBox OS. Previously it was like this: - once a month (on a given billing date) we took all records (number of contacts, orders, files in megabytes) and received the amount of data, - if it is less than 1000, then everything is free, - if more than 1000, then an invoice was issued at the rate of $1.99 for every 1000 data, except for the first 1000, - you have 10 days to pay the invoice, and the invoice can change on the fly if there is more data. Now the tariff works like this: - once a month (on a given billing date) we pay for each installed application, how much data it contains and at what tariff, - we combine everything into one invoice, where each line is a separate application, - invoice is available in your account + sent by email, - the invoice is fixed and does not change. Despite the fact that the rule “the first 1000 data is free” is clearly missing, in reality the data tariff has not become more expensive. This happens because each application determines its own pricing, and almost all standard OneBox applications are charged as follows: round(amount of data / 1000) x $1.99. For example, if you have 499 entries in the Contacts application, then the cost for the Contacts application will be 0. If there are 500 records then round(500/1000) x $1.99 = $1.99 If there are 1499 records then round(1499/1000) x $1.99 = $1.99 If there are 1500 records then round(1499/1000) x $1.99 = $3.98 and so on. This approach to charging allows partners to create their own applications with their own charging rules, where they can also charge data. And users will have the opportunity to purchase only individual applications. Thank you for your attention.
