Planet Scope Top Up Discounted price and size

Hello,

We need to purchase more data for our Tier 1 package. My understanding is that we should use the top up option when ordering, that way the new data will be co-termed with the original data. Our data package was originally purchased in November 2023, so I was expecting ~50% discount when placing the top up order for more data; however, the discount was minimal (e.g. < 1% for a purchase date of Mar 26, 2024). I have two requests / questions:

  1. Why am I paying almost full price since I am purchasing more data mid-year (with respect to the original purchase date)
  2. What is the minimum size of area I can purchase using the top up option?

You should put in the date of the original purchase, i.e. November 2023 in your case. Then the discount should be properly applied.
Minimum package size is 500 hectares.
