Bandwidth is the actual amount of data transferred through your Unicart store at one time. The image you uploaded to Unicart store, there is an amount of data required to load when someone visits your Unicart store.

Bandwidth amount came with the package you signed up. It will be renewed automatically at beginning of every month. When your bandwidth finishes used up before renewal, you may land up making your Unicart store unavailable for the visitors.
