How our tiered pricing works
Pool Points
- Each tier indicates the Cost and the Points awarded each month.
- Pool points will be shared by all of the cameras in your pool.
- Unused Points are not carried over into future periods.
- Your Points Reserve points never expire and can be used at any time.
Automatic Billing option
Check this option on your plan to have the system continue billing you automatically, month to month.
Points Reserve Option
Purchase additional points to be used at any time should you run out of standard points. These points never expire and can be used for the life time of your plan. Reserve points are awarded at the Cost per Point of your selected tier, providing a fair, true flat rate cost.
Pay as you go Plan features
- Do not require a contract.
- Can Cancel at any time.
- Are automatically renewable.
- Will use Consolidated Billing. The system will generate a single credit card charge on the same day of the month, each month.
Remote Control and SMS Messaging
- Remote Control allows for real time manipulation of your camera by sending an SMS or text message to the camera while it is in a wake-on-sms state. Use camera settings to activate Remote Control.
- Currently, Lookout Models provide the Remote Control Features.
- Remote Control is available for AT&T and Verizon only from within the Ridgetec Portal or App and while using Ridgetec SIMs. Any customer supplied sim or non AT&T and Verizon sim would require the camera owner to use their own text messaging client to message the camera.
- Verizon SMS commands on Ridgetec sims will cost $0.02/each (USD) and will be deducted from the Points Reserve if available, otherwise they will not be sent. This is a pass-through cost for Ridgetec and Verizon sim users.
