This eliminates the normal cellular monthly services charges which typically range from $12 to $50 per month per device. The service has no monthly service fees, and no long term multi-year contracts are required. With a low one-time service activation fee that includes, the device, account setup, programming, and first year of service for $389.95 the first one to try it, and $29.95 per year after the first year.

Businesses that want to increase customer traffic to their location like restaurants, malls, and stores can easily add their Wifi hot spot to the website.
