Ecast Pricing
What is the cost for all of the above invaluable services (that
would cost you thousands of dollars in lost
time and revenues if you did them yourself) ? Ecast charges you just
a small and fair percentage of your
jukebox's monthly take to completely manage your entire jukebox
operation, from start to finish!
Once you are signed up with Ecast, you
simply pay Ecast, via a electronic debit from your bank account,
a small monthly charge for use of their music.
While most locations charge users for playing songs, if
your Ecast jukebox is ever in "free-play" mode, your account will
be charged just pennies per song played, with 100 "free-play mode"
songs per month offered free of charge ! There may be some
additional small monthly fees that depend on options selected, or if
you are letting Ecast provide you with internet service.
