Minimum fee with Volume banded rate card

[#1]

We want to have a volume banded rate card, but also charge a minimum fee always even if there are no calls.

So if the per API call fee is 1 dollar and minimum rate is 100 dollars.

For any number of calls below 100.

Bill = 100

If number of calls are over 100

Bill = number of calls * per call fee(1 dollar)

is this also for developer apps or affiliates? I see an easier way for developer apps, but not for affiliates

For apps -> configure a setup/recurring fee, In Rate card, allow freemium and set by quantity to 100, then use volume banded

It might be possible to use custom attribute to charge/group per affiliate - have not tried it

This is per developer. Thanks for the solution.

Yes that's possible you need to setup a volume banded rate plan with a recurring fee. Which means per month there would be a basic fee (recurring) and then based on usage volume, calls would be charged as per the volume bands.

You could have bands like:

0 - 100 > 0 USD

101 -1000 > 1 USD

1001 - 10000 > so on....
