Note:
Daily PCU refers to the highest number of concurrent online users for the day, while the monthly peak PCU value refers to the highest daily PCU value within the month. For example, if the daily PCU is 5,400 on the 2nd of the month and below 5,400 for the rest of the days of the month, then the monthly peak PCU value is 5,400.
The highest number of concurrent online users for the day is the sum of the peak online user counts for all countries or regions on that day. For example, if the peak online user count in the United States is 200, in Japan is 100, and there are no online players in other regions on the 2nd of the month, then the daily highest number of concurrent online users PCU for the 2nd is 300.
For services billed by PCU, fees will be charged per 5,000 PCUs. Values below 5,000 will be calculated as 5,000. For example, if the monthly peak PCU is 5,400, then the fees for the month will be 3,000 USD + 1,870 USD.

Voice Messaging is billed by the number of daily active users.
