Why am I being charged in the middle of the month?
Wednesday March 9, 2022
Don't you wish you had a car that did not need fuel? You could drive as much as you want and never stop to fill up at a gas station!
Unfortunatley, such a car does not exist. Sending emails also requires regular stops to purchase fuel. In addition to paying monthly for the software, you will also need to pay for the amount of emails you send.
Simply put, your Email Service Provider is a bit like your Car, and your Email Sending is a bit like the Gas in your Tank. If you drive a lot, you have to stop more often to purchase gas.
On Data:
Sending emails is a metered service. You are charged for usage during the month.
The first thousand emails you send each month is free, after that is is just $2 per 1,000 emails sent.
