Hi Reguser

Since India does not have domestic premium rate numbers, surfer needs to make a regular IDD call to get his password. The international settlement rate between the telcos has fallen over the years, so high payouts not possible.

But as Due points out, even if it were possible, $30 would represent an enourmous amount of the surfer's overall disposable income.

So different business model : instead of granting a month's access for $30, why not charge the access for a day via the phone?

Whilst phone billing is not recurring by default, if you have compelling content, the chances are good that they will come back again later and pay you this way - not least since your gave him the option to to commit to a subscription in the first place...

Please note that our platform is geo-targeted in 37 languages, including HINDI
