Your market is the user base of the operator which you provision in the process.

But our services work upon a subscription model. Which means, in order for a user to receive the service, the user should subscribe to the service. Without user content it is not possible to provide a service forcefully to the end user.

Therefore, it is developer's, service provider's responsibility to do marketing for your service and attract subscribers based upon your value proposition.

Is there a limit for charging?

There are two main types of charing in Ideamart. Recurring charges and on-demand charges.

In th case of recurring charges the scenarios are like below.

For Ideapro, the charging rates are flexible with a given limit by the administrators. Services with obviously unfair rates will be questioned back before providing approval to go live.

You can also use on-demand charging feature when you use CaaS (Charging as a Service) only in IdeaPro. There the maximum and minimum amount you can charge can be set. Administrators have the authority to change the limits and set user authentication for charging features.

That means whenever you make a charging request, it will have to be authenticated by the end user via SMS/USSD.
