Frequently Asked Questions
Why is Hardware + Device Cloud presented together?
When you purchase Particle IoT development kits or Systems on a Module (SoM), you are not buying a piece of standalone silicon. Instead, you are getting a bundle: IoT hardware that comes pre-programmed to work with a full-featured Device Cloud. This is one of the main value propositions of using Particle — it's an integrated solution that allows you to focus on what makes your IoT product unique.
How does Device Cloud pricing for standalone devices work?
Standalone devices are those that are not part of a mesh network. They have their own direct connection to the Particle Device Cloud (using Wi-Fi, Cellular, or Ethernet connectivity) and largely act independently from one another.
Standalone devices are billed per device per month. The per device cost is a factor of the type of connectivity (i.e. Wi-Fi vs. Cellular) the device uses and the total number of devices you have in your fleet.
How is cellular data billed?
Cellular data is included as part of access to the Device Cloud. Each standalone cellular device has 3MB of cellular data included per month. Regardless of where data is consumed around the world, the first 3MB per device are always included in the standard cellular Device Cloud rate ($2.99 per device/month).
Mesh networks using cellular gateways also include cellular data: Micro Networks include 5MB of data, and High Availability Networks include 10MB of data. Cellular data for mesh networks are pooled across all gateways in the network.
If your device consumes more than 3MB of cellular data in a given month, you will be charged an overage rate per MB used. For most countries, the overage rate is $0.40/MB.
What about Ethernet?
Particle's 3rd generation of hardware now supports Ethernet connectivity. In short, Ethernet devices will be treated the exact same as Wi-Fi devices from a pricing perspective.
Standalone Ethernet devices will be subject to the same Device Cloud pricing rules as a standalone Wi-Fi device.
Mesh networks on the Micro plan using an Ethernet gateway will be billed the same way as a Micro Network using a Wi-Fi gateway.
