Abstract

The invention aims to provide an on-line charging method, which includes steps of: (1) calculating final cost according to one rate; (2) searching available account book node and forming available chain table according to accounts type configured in the rate; (3) carrying out circulation counteraction deduction to the account book node according to charging result, and carrying out inverse computation if remaining sum is not enough; and (4) recording charge process and returning charge result to present overdue or not. The invention can realize control of account balance in charge process by the charging system, and make the charging system to control the risk of user overdue in the using process of each service, simultaneously in the charging system, a plurality of paying relation can intelligible clear coexist in balance relation, when balance is not enough, the invention carries out inverse computation treatment to oddment of balance, and finally raises the utilization rate of account fund to maximum.

Description
