Do I need to choose a subscription or Pay as you go (Pay Per View) option?
Choosing whether you want a subscription or Pay As You Go ( Pay Per View) option depends on a number of factors.
A subscription will be more expensive but you tend to have unlimited data views for the entire length of your subscription. A subscription is probably the best option if you are unsure what you are looking for and want the security of knowing that you are not tied to a set number of record views.
Pay As You Go (Pay Per View) will be cheaper but you only have a set number of credits to use and will need to top up again once these run out. Pay As You Go (Pay Per View) is probably the best option if you know exactly what you are looking for and/ or only have a few records that you need to view.
