Patent
CA 2293098
For authorizing a service such as a web based service provided by a third party service provider to a subscriber of a telecommunications network, the service provider or his calling agent makes a call to the subscriber, to obtain an authorization from the subscriber for an amount to be billed to the subscriber on their network bill. The web service is then provided and the billing system of the network is arranged to charge the subscriber an amount indicated by the service provider, and credit the service provider. Having the authorizing call made to the subscriber (rather than having the subscriber make the call) makes it easier for the provider to handle large scale operations. Also, it is easier for a subscriber. Notably, existing telephone billing systems are well adapted for billing many small transactions, and distributing the revenue.
