A published rate, off a published price list.
You pay a percentage less than the public price of the same plan on simway.pro. The percentage is set by what you bought in the last 30 days, it is on this page rather than behind a call, and there is no monthly fee, no minimum and no contract term.
The tier ladder
| Tier | Trailing 30-day spend | Discount off list | Roughly, in profiles |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bronze | Any | 8% | — |
| Silver | $1,000+ | 12% | ~61 / month |
| Gold | $5,000+ | 16% | ~316 / month |
| Platinum | $20,000+ | 20% | ~1,323 / month |
The last column is that threshold divided by the price of one worked example below, at the rate you would be paying while you climb to it. It is an illustration of scale, not a rule — spend is spend, whatever mix of plans produces it.
How the rung is decided
- Recomputed nightly from your trailing 30-day spend. Nobody has to ask for a review and nothing is negotiated.
- Live spend only. Sandbox purchases move a separate float, write no statement row and count for nothing.
- It moves both ways. A quiet month moves you back down; the ladder is a measurement, not a status.
- A staff-set per-account rate supersedes the ladder entirely rather than stacking on it, and it is subject to the same 20% cap — an override above the cap is refused when a human tries to set it, not silently trimmed.
- Your rate never changes your throughput. Platinum shares Gold’s rate limits deliberately, so a tier recomputation nobody told your engineers about cannot change how your integration behaves. The limits are here.
Worked, on a real plan from today’s catalogue
India — 5 GB / 30 days lists at $17.99 on simway.pro right now. It is the median-priced plan of that shape in the catalogue, picked by rule rather than chosen, and the prices below were computed from its real list price when this page was built — with the same rounding the API uses. The last column assumes you resell at our own public price, which is the floor of what you would charge rather than a recommendation.
| Tier | You pay | You keep at our list price | Realised rate |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bronze | $16.56 | $1.43 | 7.94% |
| Silver | $15.84 | $2.15 | 11.95% |
| Gold | $15.12 | $2.87 | 15.95% |
| Platinum | $14.40 | $3.59 | 19.95% |
The same ladder across the price range
Three more real rows, from the cheapest thing in the catalogue to the 95th percentile, so the shape of the discount at either end is visible rather than inferred from one example.
| Plan | List | Bronze | Silver | Gold | Platinum |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Turkey — 1 GB / 7 days | $1.49 | $1.38 | $1.32 | $1.26 | $1.20 |
| Estonia — 2 GB/day for 30 days, unlimited | $44.99 | $41.40 | $39.60 | $37.80 | $36.00 |
| Guam — 10 GB/day for 15 days, unlimited | $449.99 | $414.00 | $396.00 | $378.00 | $360.00 |
Median single-country plan: $44.99 at list. Cheapest plan in the catalogue: $1.49, which is $1.20 at the deepest published rate. All prices are USD; there is no other billing currency.
The floor, and why the ladder stops at 20%
Under every plan sits a hard minimum price. It is not a partner rule — it is the same floor that governs what the consumer shop is allowed to list a plan at — and it exists because a sale below it is value-destroying rather than merely thin: the supplier bills per activation, the payment rail takes a cut, and a profile that is provisioned and then refunded is a total loss because it cannot be handed back.
We do not publish wholesale cost, so you cannot reproduce a per-plan floor from this — which is exactly why the API returns your_price_cents per plan instead of asking anyone to compute it. What can be published is the measurement.
| Measured across the whole active catalogue | Result |
|---|---|
| Gross margin at list price | 44.7% |
| Tightest plan: headroom between list and its floor | 21.6% |
| Plans that clear the floor at 20% off | All of them |
| Plans that clear it at 25% off | 80.1% — 819 plans would breach it |
| Plans that clear it at 30% off | 56.5% |
| Measured on | 2026-08-15 |
So 20% is not a round number someone liked. It is the deepest flat rate that is honourable on every plan we sell, and it is the reason no published tier rate is clamped today: the tightest plan in the catalogue has 21.6% of headroom and the deepest rung asks for 20%.
The price you were quoted is the price you pay
When an order is accepted, the unit price, the total, the list price, the price source and the tier are all written onto the order and never recomputed. The catalogue can reprice ten minutes later, your tier can be recalculated overnight, and the order still settles at what it was accepted at — including when our own reconciler picks up an order that was stranded mid-flight and finishes it hours afterwards.
The same discipline is why there is no stored partner price on a plan row: the catalogue sync rewrites plan rows wholesale twice an hour, and a stored agreed price would be silently overwritten on the same cadence.
Deposits
The balance is prepaid and it can never go below zero. A purchase that would take it under is refused with a 402 carrying your balance and the amount required — not a partial fulfilment and not a negative balance.
