Each BarnTalk gateway comes pre-connected with built in cellular connectivity. It is truly plug-in-play. As soon as you turn on the gateway our system finds the strongest cell tower and connects. It also works across multiple carriers for added back up in case one carrier were to have an outage.
To cover that expense, as well as sending data to your app, we charge $49/month for the first gateway or $525 for a year. It's cheaper than a phone line and equivalent to a hotspot!
Subscription will start 1 month after the date of installation and can be setup at the time of purchasing your hardware or shortly after by contacting support@barntools.com or calling 515-272-5122. Either way, the first 30 days of subscription are free and we can setup the subscription to be paid monthly or annually.
If you add a second gateway, no matter if it's located at that same site, or all the way across the country, we do not charge an additional subscription. You can have two gateways for the $49/month fee or $525 a year. That's total. Not each!
For each gateway after the second, add $19 per month or $210 per year for the subscription.
- 1st Gateway = $49 /mo or $525 /year
- 2nd Gateway = Free (no additional subscription)
- 3rd, 4th, 5th, and so on = $19 /mo or $210 /year per additional Gateway
For gateways with any number of BinTalk feed sensors on them (limit of 8 BinTalk sensors per Gateway), there is an additional cost of $10 per month or $120 per year for each gateway that has a BinTalk sensor connected to it.
If you have any issues or feedback, reach out to our support team via email at support@barntools.com or call 515-272-5122 during the hours of 8am-5pm CST Monday-Friday.
