KDDI CORPORATION
Okinawa Cellular Telephone Company
July 10,2017
Beginning July 14, 2017, KDDI and Okinawa Cellular will provide au Flat Plan, a new rate plan that offers users great value for large-volume data communication.
Big News Campaign will start accepting applications the same day, enabling use of the latest au smartphones [2] for as little as 4,500/month [1], including voice calls and 20GB of data communication.
au Flat Plan This new rate plan offers customers a great monthly deal on large-volume data communication, allowing users to send and receive data without worrying about the volume.
There are six plans to choose from, depending on usage of voice calls and data communication: au Flat Plan 20 (Super Kakeho), au Flat Plan 20 (Kakeho), au Flat Plan 20 (Simple), au Flat Plan 30 (Super Kakeho), au Flat Plan 30 (Kakeho) and au Flat Plan 30 (Simple).

au Flat Plan is not a monthly discount offered as a discount when a customer purchases a device, but a rate plan that offers the customer great value by setting the communication charges at a significantly low level. The need to pay up to half the cost of the device [4] is eliminated when this plan is used in combination with the new
Upgrade Program EX.
For more details of au Flat Plan 20/30 (Kakeho) and au Flat Plan 20/30 (Simple), see the Attachment.
Big News Campaign A discount of 1,000 on monthly charges is offered for 12 months to customers who subscribe to au Flat Plan when making a new contract or changing to a new model [5] during the period from July 14, 2017 to December 31, 2017. This means that customers can use au Flat Plan 20 (Super Kakeho) for 4,500 [1].
With au Flat Plan, monthly points earned so far based on au monthly charges are integrated with au STAR Royal. [6] Points earned with au STAR Royal, which rewards customers with WALLET points based on the number of years they have subscribed to au services, are awarded as shown below. [7]
