It's an API you use to send push notifications to iOS devices that have your app installed.

More specifically: it (a) makes debugging missing notifications easier, as it often feels like a notification just disappears into the ether, (b) it's priced based on actual usage, and (c) it saves you a ton of time from having to deal with Apple's APNS, which in my experience can get quite hairy.

Based on our split testing and other feedback, one of the next items on our list is to rewrite the about page. Thanks for the feedback!

You know, your pricing page says the same thing you just did "It's priced based on actual usage". That's not true. It's a flat fee of $25 per month. Priced on usage would be $0.01 per push message or something, so the price scales based on actual usage.

That being said, I want to use this.

Actually... It does say lower in the page that pricing is $0.02 per notification, but you're to prepay for them. That's kind of conflicting with the "$25 per month" that I saw above that. I assume if I prepay $25 and don't use all of them then it carries to the next month?
