Connectivity Pricing
| LTE | mcAir | |
| Cloud access | $0.99 per device per month | $0.49 per device per month |
| Data | $0.20 per 1000 messages | $0.02 per 1000 messages |
Monthly Cost Calculation Example
You can calculate how many messages you need per month by dividing 43200 by your messaging interval in minutes.
A LTE device sending every 15 minutes (~3000 messages a month) would cost $1.59 per month.
1*($0.99 + 3($0.20) = $1.59
