Step 1: Check Agora’s Pricing

Please check the pricing from Agora here

Agora’s pricing for call services is as follows:

• Audio Calls: $0.99 per 1,000 participant minutes → $0.00099 per participant per minute.
• Video Calls (up to 2K resolution): $15.99 per 1,000 participant minutes → $0.01599 per participant per minute.

Note: In typical usage, video calls do not exceed 2K resolution, so this pricing is the most appropriate choice.

Step 2: Calculate the Cost of Voice/Video Calls

Voice Call Cost Calculation

For a call with 2 participants:

• Cost per minute = $0.00099 × 2 = $0.00198.

Video Call Cost Calculation (2K Resolution)

For a call with 2 participants:

• Cost per minute = $0.01599 × 2 = $0.03198.

Note: This is the base cost you pay to Agora. To determine the final price for users, consider adding platform fees and profit.

Step 3: Convert Cost to Credits

Our system uses Credits as a currency for payments.
