| Note: Once Shadow billing is selected in the Price list or Origination rate, the Initial increment and increment value consider are considered 0 (Override with the original value), it which means the shadow billing charge applies only to the second base. |
- In shadow billing, we can define Flat Disconnect Fee, Disconnect Fee After, Disconnect Fee, and Minutes to Seconds.
- Flat Disconnect Fee: If a call connects flat charge is applied on to Call Cost.
- Eg: suppose the call charge is 2.000 USD we define a flat fee as 0.02 so the charge deduct deducted from the customer is 2.020 USD.
- Disconnect Fee After & Disconnect Fee: Here we can define second, after second this charge also applies on cost.
- Eg: suppose the call hangup before 50 seconds so the Disconnect Fee does not apply on cost but if the call hangup after 50 seconds do does the disconnect fee apply on charges.?
- Call charge 2.000 USD apply flat charge 0.02 and also apply disconnect fee 0.01 so the total charge is 2.030 USD.
- Minutes to Second: Here we can define seconds, suppose we set 55 so one minutes minute converts into 55 seconds so one minute charge apply on applies to 55 secondseconds.
- Eg: call that runs 110 second seconds and the cost is 1.000 USD so for a 110-second charge deduct 2.000 USD(2 minutes charge in 110 secondseconds.)
- We assign created Shadow billing in Origination Rates or in the Price list.
- For Provider cost, we can enable disable in setting menu
- If enable enabled it applies on provider cost if disable disabled not apply Shadow billing on cost it apply applies only Debit charge.
