Data Pack Pricing Structure
Usage fees are incurred when purchasing a Data Pack via the OCX Portal.
This page explains the usage fees for Data Packs and Additional Data Packs, as well as how excess charges are generated and verified.
Data Pack Fees: Start and End of Billing
There is a [Monthly Fee] that is billed every month after purchase.
Monthly Fee
The billing start date is the day we (the company) accept the Data Pack purchase request.
The billed amount for the first month is calculated pro-rata from the start date until the end of that month. The available data communication capacity for that month is also calculated pro-rata.
Pro-rata calculations are based on the actual number of calendar days in the month containing the billing start date.
| Billing Unit | Fee |
|---|---|
| Data Allowance 10GB | ¥4,000 |
| Data Allowance 1TB | ¥150,000 |
| Data Allowance 10TB | ¥900,000 |
| Data Allowance (annual contract) 10TB | ¥900,000 |
*Note: The Data Allowance (annual contract) 10TB includes the right to use 10,000 SIM cards with the initial fee waived.
If the contract is terminated before the end of the minimum contract period, a lump sum will be charged. This amount is calculated by multiplying the monthly fee by the number of remaining months from the month following the termination date until the end of the minimum contract period.
Termination of Billing
The billing end date for Data Pack usage fees is the day the decommissioning of the Data Pack is completed (at the point the resource disappears from the list on the portal).
If a Data Pack is decommissioned in the middle of a month, the monthly fee for the month containing the billing end date will not be pro-rated.
Additional Data Pack Fees
There is an [Initial Fee] which is a one-time charge incurred after purchasing a Data Pack.
Initial Fee
This fee is billed only once after the Data Pack purchase.
Billing and payment occur in the month following the month containing the billing start date.
| Billing Unit | Fee |
|---|---|
| Additional Data Allowance 10GB | ¥4,000 |
| Additional Data Allowance 1TB | ¥150,000 |
| Additional Data Allowance 10TB | ¥900,000 |
Excess Charges
Excess charges apply to any "Excess Traffic" calculated by subtracting the total Data Pack capacity for the month from the total monthly communication volume.
The rates are as follows:
| Billing Unit | Fee |
|---|---|
| Excess Traffic | ¥6 / MB |
