Managing mobile data expenses just got easier with aloSIM+’s latest feature: spending cap. This tool allows aloSIM+ account owners to take control of their data spending by allocating a specific monthly spend to their members.

Whether you’re managing data for your family, team, or any group of users, this feature gives you full control over how much data each person can use – no more worrying about surprise overages. It keeps everyone in check, so they won’t be streaming every cute cat video on your dime!

What is spending cap? (Spoiler: It’s not a hat)

The spending cap feature gives the aloSIM+ owner (aka the Data Boss) the ability to set monthly data budgets for their members. This ensures that each member has access to the data they need, while also keeping costs in check. Owners can decide how much each member can spend on data each month, and once the cap is reached, the member will not be able to make additional purchases until the next billing cycle. (It resets every 1st of the month, so no worries about long-term cutoffs!)

With this feature, owners can:

  • Avoid surprise overages: Say goodbye to shocking moments that make you nearly spill your morning coffee.
  • Allocate monthly data allowances: Decide how much each member can spend on data. It’s like giving them an allowance, but for gigabytes! 
  • Manage on the fly: Feeling generous? Bump up the cap! Need to rein things in? Dial it back down. You’re in control.

Why use spending cap?

  • Financial zen: Achieve peace of mind knowing your data expenses won’t spiral out of control. Whether you’re managing your family’s mobile data or overseeing a team, Spending Cap helps you stay within budget by controlling how much data each person can purchase.
  • Transparency: Spending cap ensures that members know exactly how much they can spend each month. No more “But I thought streaming in 4K was fine!” conversations.
  • Flexibility: As the owner, you can easily adjust each member’s spending cap whenever needed. It’s as easy as changing your mind about that third cup of coffee.

How to set up spending cap for your aloSIM+ account

Setting up a spending cap for your members is quick and easy:

  1. Log into your aloSIM+ account: Go to plus.alosim.com and sign in to your aloSIM+ owner account.
  2. Go to the spending cap settings: Navigate to the Account tab and find “spending cap” – it’s right below your company details.
  3. Assign monthly spending limits: Choose how much members are allowed to spend on data each month. You can set a spending cap that applies to ALL members, or just individual members:
  • Set a global cap so everyone gets the same monthly allowance (fairness for the win!).
  • Need to spoil someone? Set an individual cap that overrides the global one, because sometimes favorites happen!
  1. Adjust as needed: Spending caps can be adjusted at any time. Did someone binge-watch an entire series? Time to tighten that cap! Or maybe reward them for finishing all ten seasons—your call.

How members benefit from this new feature

While spending cap is primarily designed for owners to manage their budgets, members also benefit from this feature:

  • Peace of mind: Members know exactly how much data they can use each month, without the fear of overspending. It’s like a data allowance, but without the chores.
  • Accountability: With a clear cap in place, members can manage their data usage more responsibly, knowing that they have a set limit each month. Nobody wants to run out of data mid-meme!
  • Fair usage: If you’re managing a family or team, this feature ensures that data is distributed fairly across all members, giving everyone their slice of the data pie.
