Free runs one screen. Paid plans publish immediately, keep a live connection, and fall back to a check if that connection drops. Annual billing is cheaper on Standard, Pro, and Enterprise.

Extra bandwidth and API Pro and Enterprise keep going beyond the included amount and pay for extra from prepaid usage credits, at 36p per GB of bandwidth and 2.8p per 1,000 API requests. Credits top up automatically (you set the amount and a monthly limit), or you can add them yourself. If the credits run out and cannot be topped up, new downloads and API calls pause. Screens keep playing what is already loaded. | Stops at the cap | Stops at the cap | Pay as you go from credits: 36p per GB, 2.8p per 1,000 calls | Pay as you go from credits: 36p per GB, 2.8p per 1,000 calls |

Once a playlist is loaded in local memory, the screen keeps playing from memory. That playback does not count towards bandwidth.
