Why the two price lists are shaped differently

How aloSIM and Roami build their plan ladders

aloSIM and Roami both sell metered data and unlimited passes, but their bottom rungs are far apart. aloSIM's smallest metered plan is 1 GB and its ladder spans 1 GB to 50 GB at $4.50 down to $0.60 per gigabyte; Roami's smallest is about 100 MB, enough for messaging on a short trip and not much else.

The penalty for buying small is therefore much harsher at Roami: 37× from bottom rung to top, against aloSIM's 7.5×. aloSIM also names its throttle — 3 GB per day, then 1 kbps — while Roami's cards carry no comparable figure.
