Understanding Local Quotas: Definition, Function, and Coverage Area

Jakarta –

Currently, many internet service providers provide additional local quotas to the packages they offer. You can buy these packages at different prices.

Providers often offer quotas with large capacities at affordable prices. So, what is a local quota and how is it different from the main quota? Check out the explanation in this article.

Definition and Concept of Local Quotas

Quoted from the Telkomsel page, local quota is a limit on the amount of internet usage in a certain area. For example, where the package was activated or the cellphone number and other devices used by the customer.

As the name suggests, local quota coverage cannot reach more than the specified area. If local quotas can only be used in certain cities, then their reach cannot reach the national level.

Each provider has its own rules regarding local quotas and coverage. Likewise, the capacity, price and duration of the package can be used.

Local Quota Function

Local internet quota can be used to access the internet without being limited to certain applications. Apart from that, usually local quotas can also be used for 24 hours or without time limits. Here are several things that users can do to enjoy local quota internet:

• Browsing internet
• Play online games
• Sending messages via the application
• Video streaming.

Difference between Local Quota and Regular Quota

The difference between the main quota and local quota is the area coverage. Local quotas can only be used in certain areas. Meanwhile, the main or regular quota can be used nationally or has no regional restrictions.

Can Local Quotas Be Used Outside the City?

The use of local quota packages can only be used in areas regulated by telecommunications service providers (providers). If used outside a city or region that does not comply with the provider’s regulations, the local quota cannot be used.

When the customer is outside the coverage area, then the internet usage will be transferred to another type of quota. For example, the main quota or cutting pulses directly according to the prevailing tariff. Direct deduction of pulses may occur if you do not have another quota.

How Customers Enjoy Local Quotas

Generally, local quotas do not stand alone. Local quota is usually combined as a benefit with several other types of quota in the data package.

To use local quota, you don’t need to set anything. Customers can immediately use it after successfully activating the data package which has local quota benefits in it.

That was the explanation about local quotas. Starting from the meaning, function, differences with the main quota, to how to enjoy the local quota. Hopefully this article is useful.
