Billing of QR Codes by Usage: The Case of Equipment Geolocation

Since version 1.10 of Ubiqod, for QR code (QOD) trackers, you can choose to enable billing based on time spent (daily rate) or usage.

With the latter, you only pay when the QR code is scanned. You can then manually deactivate it or through the API once the scan has been performed, or leave it active indefinitely without additional charges when not in use.
