An RMS credit buys one Teltonika device 30 days of RMS Management. Credits sit in your RMS company's pool until you assign them, so a device only uses one while it is under management. Below: how credits differ from a management package and from RMS Connect data, drawn from Teltonika's own pages, linked at the end.
RMS, Teltonika's Remote Management System, is an IoT platform for remote access to and management of connected Teltonika Networks devices and third party devices. Using it on a device after the trial is paid for with credits or packages.
What one credit buys
One credit gives one device 30 days of RMS Management. That is the whole rule. A credit is not
tied to a device until you assign it, and once assigned it covers that one device for the next
30 days. In plain speech, 12 credits keeps one device managed for a year.
Credits are pay as you go: you buy them and assign them to devices as you need to, so a device
only uses a credit while it is under management.
The free trial
Every new Teltonika device comes with a free RMS Management trial of 30 days. Credits become
relevant when the free period ends and you want the device to stay under management. A device
whose management lapses shows as offline in RMS until a credit or package is assigned; our
guide How to use RMS credits covers the Service and
Auto Extend settings that decide this.
Credits versus management packages
Teltonika also sells RMS Management packages, prepaid blocks of time for one device, with
terms of 3, 5 or 10 years, or 6 or 12 months. A package is prepaid time on one device. Credits
are a pool for the company: you decide, device by device and month by month, where they go.
Buying 6 or 12 monthly credits for one device typically costs more than the matching package.
So the choice is mostly about flexibility against price: credits suit fleets that change,
short projects and trials; packages suit devices that will sit under management for years. We
sell standard RMS credits only for now, and RMS management packages are coming soon.
Credits versus company data
Management and remote access are metered differently. RMS Connect and RMS VPN draw on company
data, a shared pool for the company, not on management time. Teltonika gives every company on
RMS the first 5 GB of data free. Beyond that, data comes from a 150 GB connection data pack
assigned to one device for 10 years, or from RMS credits converted into company data inside
RMS at 2 GB per credit. A credit assigned to a device keeps it under management; the same
credit converted to data feeds Connect and VPN sessions instead. Our guide How RMS VPN credits work goes through it.
The RMS API
Each company on RMS gets 100,000 free API requests per 30 day period. It is separate from
management credits.
How you receive and use credits
Credits are sold as a code. A code can be activated by any RMS company, not only the company
that bought it. Once activated, the credits sit in that company's pool until assigned to
devices. Our page How to redeem an RMS credit code walks through it, and How many RMS credits do I need counts what a fleet uses.
From the buy box to a managed device: each credit you assign keeps one device managed for 30 days.
What we could not confirm
Whether unused credits in a pool ever expire. We do not guess; check the current RMS terms in
your account.
30 days of RMS Management for one device. A credit sits in the company pool until it is assigned, then covers that device for the next 30 days.
Is a credit the same as a management package?
No. A package is prepaid time on one device: 3, 5 or 10 years, or 6 or 12 months. Credits are a pool the company spends device by device, 30 days at a time.
Do credits pay for RMS Connect or RMS VPN?
Not as management time. Connect and VPN draw on company data, 5 GB of it free per company; a credit can be converted into 2 GB of company data inside RMS.
