# Flat Rate

Billed at a pre-committed bandwidth rate. Your monthly cost is fixed regardless of actual traffic volume.

## Key features

* **Billing unit**: Mbps (e.g., 10M, 100M, 1G)
* **Billing cycle**: Monthly, billed at the start of each month
* **Pricing**: bandwidth rate × unit price (USD/Mbps/month)
* **Unlimited traffic**: No traffic cap or extra charges within the committed bandwidth
* **Dedicated bandwidth**: Not shared with others — stable, predictable quality

## Use cases

Best for customers with stable traffic and a clear bandwidth expectation, such as video delivery, enterprise leased lines, and CDN origin pull.

## Example

Singapore ↔ Hong Kong, 100 Mbps flat rate at $2/Mbps/month → $200/month
