Package Counters

Package Counters are read-only records that track the remaining usage balance of active service packages assigned to customer accounts. A package counter is created automatically when a Service with a package billing configuration is activated on an account.

For a package counter to be consumed during a call, the matched Destination must have Allow Package Billing enabled. If the destination does not have this flag set, calls will be billed at standard per-minute rates even if an active package counter exists.

INFO

Package Counter records are managed automatically by the system. They cannot be created or edited manually.

Exclude
If enabled, calls to destinations matching the prefix are excluded from package billing and billed at standard per-minute rates instead.
