Uses and Requirements

There are two types of subscriptions:

A monthly recurring subscription, in which the account purchases a certain number of licenses per month to use the location service API. Uses above the amount purchased will be billed as event-based purchases.
An event-based subscription, in which the account is billed at the end of the billing cycle for the number of device location requests used.

NOTES:
Only recurring subscriptions are supported at this time.

License usage and billing events are counted by device, not by request. A single request to get the location of 10 devices would use 10 licenses or count as 10 billing events, not just 1.

Requests for cached location information do not use licenses or count as billing events.
