Changing current Subscription
The MFT Gateway allows you to change an existing subscription at any time. You may upgrade or downgrade your package, or change the billing frequency.
Upgrading to save cost
As your messaging volumes grow over time, it would be more cost-effective for you to upgrade your existing plan.
Example
Consider a user subscribing to the ‘Small’ plan paying Annually. Initially the account sent and received around 4,000 messages per month. After a few months, the number of messages exchanged starts to increase suddenly to around 8,000 messages per month. With the current subscription the total cost is computed as follows:
Please note that all the values below are in USD.
- Monthly subscription cost: $ 249
- Cost for the messages included (i.e. 5,000) in the subscription: $ 0
- Cost for the balance 3,000 messages charged at $ 0.10 per messages (i.e. 3000 * 0.10) = $ 300
- Total cost per month: $ 549
Consider this total cost with the upgrade to the next plan ‘Business’. It allows 15,000 messages per month and its monthly subscription fee is just $ 399. So there is a savings of $150 by upgrading the subscription at the right time.
