BGAN Pooling Plans (Shared Corporate Allowance Plan - SCAP)

Pooled plans eliminate the rollover loss of multiple individual accounts by placing them under the same
account or umbrella. SCAP accounts are far more cost effective for multiple systems since unused Sim Cards
on one terminal can be used by other active terminals. Organization have complete control over individual
Sim cards with the ability to track usage and allocate usage caps on any one SIM card on their account.
