Kilobit Pricing
NEVER Pay Time Charges for Your Data Again! Telaurus prices all email and data communications by the kilobit, after compression, and not by the minute. se@COMM uses a Progressive Discount Pricing plan which begins at 15¢ per Kilobit (for low volume users, less with higher volume) and rapidly decreases as message/file size increases.
NEVER Charged for Dropped, Disconnected or Failed Connections! You only pay once for the data delivered, regardless of the connection or attempts necessary.
NEVER Wait for Your Message Volume Discount! You get your discount with each message sent as Telaurus' decreasing pricing structure, tied to message size, is automatically applied to each message and progressively lowers the cost of your messages and files as the individual size increases -- ensuring all your data communications are always cost effective.
