摘要： A multiple wireless network service system allows a given Internet data service, according to a service policy, to be accessed by each of a plurality of wireless end-user devices from either of two wireless provider access networks. Proxy servers provide the data service according to the policy, as supplied by a service controller. The service controller facilitates the configuration of elements in the access networks to allow the devices to connect through either access network to the proxy servers. A service processor on each of the devices communicates data traffic for the data service with the proxy servers.

摘要： An approach is provided for managing one or more services corresponding to a bearer tag (e.g., near field communication (NFC) tag, radio frequency identification (RFID) tag, contactless card, or barcode). A request to manage a service is initiated by reading service information from a bearer tag corresponding to the one or more services. A services platform initiates management of the one or more services based on the service information according to a predetermined or recurring billing arrangement.

摘要： Disclosed herein is a method for providing an offer which includes selecting at least one offer for presentation by applying at least one rule dictated by a merchant to a set of offers, applying at least one rule dictated by a financial institution to the offers, and applying a filter to identify offers with the highest likelihood of being accepted by the user. The selected offer is then presented to the user. An authorization request from a merchant for a user transaction is received by a remote computer and analyzed to determine one or more categories or sub-categories of the merchant or item in the transaction. The system then determines whether the selected offer is for a merchant or item in a related but different category from the one for which the authorization request was received, and if it is, the system reminds the user of the selected offer.

摘要： A method for providing a savings opportunity includes receiving an authorization request for a user transaction by a first remote computer. By analyzing, at the first remote computer, the authorization request, it can be determined if the currency being used during the transaction is different from the preferred currency (as indicated by a user profile). If there is a difference, a savings opportunity indication for the foreign transaction is generated. The savings opportunity indication may be transmitted to a second remote computer where a savings opportunity from a database of savings opportunities is matched to the user. Then, at least one of the user and the merchant is notified by the second remote computer of the savings opportunity. Alternatively, the matched savings opportunity is returned to the first remote computer for transmittal to at least one of the user and the merchant along with an authorization of the transaction.

摘要： Disclosed herein is a method for a merchant to gain information about the purchasing characteristics of a group with which the merchant wishes to interact. Merchants wishing to target group members are not able to specifically identify members of the group through depersonalized transaction data available from financial institutions. Group members are therefore identified through a traditional method: market research. The method also includes noting the purchasing behavior of group members, including providers of goods and services to group members, merchants not patronized by members of the group, and demographic characteristics of the group. An example of such a group is the so-called “millennials”. The identification of group members may be validated through test runs of financial data and fine-tuned to ensure correct identification of group members.

摘要： The present invention pertains to improved communication quality in cellular communication networks and the like. A customer has the option to pay different amounts for different tiers of service relating to voice quality and bandwidth access. Higher service tiers may guarantee that a specific vocoder or bit rate is used. Different tiers may be associated with customers' records for billing purposes. The network may also afford high end cellular phones higher voice quality by comparing a given high end phone to a look up table which indicates what level of service is associated with the given phone. A calling mobile station or a receiving mobile station may case the other mobile station to change to a more robust vocoder or bit rate to ensure a higher quality phone call. Furthermore, the user may also opt to change the quality level before or during a call.
