Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently asked questions from customers regarding pricing are summarized in the FAQs.

What does number of connections count?

Number of times you have joined a Channel in SkyWay.
A Channel is a group unit for making calls, and users who have joined a Channel talk to each other.
For example, if two people are calling, each person connects to the Channel once, so the number of connections is two.

Please consider the following as a guide for the percentage of TURN servers used.

- LANs of companies, schools, etc.: 20%
