Blū+ Data Credit

This $2 pre-paid credit is applied to your Blū+ Portal account balance to cover data usage.

Current data rates are approximately $2/month per tag.

The Blū+ Data Service activates extended, cloud-based detection for your BlūSeries tags across CTT’s growing network of digital receivers and partnered IoT infrastructure.

When a tag is covered by an active Blū+ data plan and toggled ON in the BlūSeries Tag Portal, CTT’s backend systems will automatically search every 5 minutes across:

• CTT SensorStations and Nodes (this data is not yet ingested into the Portal but is pushed to Motus)

• The Terra Network

• Cellular IoT gateways and third-party receivers (smartphones, tablets, computers)

All detections are delivered to your online dashboard, complete with timestamps and mapped locations.

Key Features

• Prepaid $2 credit applied directly to your account
• Currently covers ~1 month of standard Blū+ usage for one tag
• Near real-time detection searches every 5 minutes
• Broad coverage via crowd-sourced and CTT-owned infrastructure
• Integrated visualizations and data export tools
• No long-term contract — recharge as needed

Important Usage Notes

• A Blū+ compatible tag (Expanded) is required (Blū+ must be selected at purchase)
• Tags must be toggled ON in the Portal and have an active data plan to be searchable
• Detections are not retroactive — tags must be active to be found
• Tag activation and data plans are managed in the BlūSeries Tag Portal
• Coverage duration may change if rates or usage change
• Credit can be purchased in bulk for longer coverage or for multiple tags

Best Used For

• Expanding detection coverage without deploying new infrastructure
• High-frequency tracking during key migratory or study periods
• Projects seeking more frequent detections at a minimal cost
