Hi justoliver,

The $5 fee is a one-time initial setup fee -- after which, it's pay-as-you-go based on the combination of the 3 dimensions described here.  Also note that only messages in are counted. Messages out are excluded.

As for different pricing models, we are investigating bulk pricing options, but that is still in the works.  Would you be willing to share your economic model with us?  What's your anticipated usage, number of users, etc.? We'd like to understand how you plan on monetizing your applications and how our pricing models can be flexible enough to meet your needs.

If you'd rather share this information privately, just send me a private message.

Thanks,

Fang
