Abstract

An approach is provided for managing one or more services corresponding to a reusable prepaid bearer tag (e.g., near field communication (NFC) tag, radio frequency identification (RFID) tag, contact less card, or bar code). A request to manage a service is initiated by reading service information from a reusable prepaid bearer tag corresponding to the one or more services.

Description

Background technique [0001] Wireless (eg, cellular) service providers and device manufacturers are continually challenged to deliver value and convenience to consumers (eg, by offering compelling services, applications, and content). Service providers and device manufacturers are making a range of more optional services (eg, music, games, video, navigation, products, etc.) available to consumers in addition to the sophisticated functionality already included in many devices. However, this increased variety may conflict with the goal of delivering convenience to consumers because it is often more difficult for consumers to manage (e.g., discover, select, access, purchase, participate, activate, modify, bill) etc.) a large number of services. Therefore, in order to be competitive and promote greater discovery and use of available services, service providers and manufacturers need to address the growing demand for more methods for efficient and convenient management of services....
