Changes for Bronze Traders 1st May 2014

From 1st May 2014, the sim allowance for all bronze traders will be reset to 10.

To make a new order, traders must now have an activation rate of at least 20%.

Please note, your activation rate will remain the same and will not be reset.

We upload activations two months after you receive them.

This means any new traders will have to wait at least two months before placing a second order. 

These changes have been made to reduce sim wastage and to encourage a more effective way of distributing sims.

What are the Tiers?

There are four main Star Trader tiers: bronze, silver, gold and platinum.

You’ll start on the bronze tier once you’re signed up and will move up or down tiers depending on your activation rate and number of activations you receive.

An activation is when a sim is topped up for the first time using a £10 top-up or more.

Your activation rate is a percentage of your sims which become activated against the sims you order. You can find your activation rate on your dashboard. Your rate is likely to change when you place sim orders and when you receive activations.

Your account and tier status will be reviewed 4 times a year.

We’ll take an average of your activation rate each month and we’ll review your tier status every 3 months:

If your average activation rate and activation volumes for that quarter fall above or below the following requirements, we’ll move you up or down tiers at the end of each quarter:

We’ll take a record of your activation rate on the last day of each month and carry out the tier upgrades and downgrades on the last day of each quarter.

If you join Star Trader after the first monthly activation rate is taken, we’ll review your tier status in the next quarter.

If you have ordered 20 sims or less, we’ll deliver them in a parcel small enough to fit through your letter box.

For larger orders, the parcel will be too big to fit through your letterbox. These must be signed for upon delivery. If you’re not in when your sims are delivered, they’ll be sent back to the nearest depot for collection. You’ll receive a note letting you know where they are and asking you to collect them. If you don’t pick up your sims after 21 days they’ll be sent back to us.
