Abstract

Systems and methods for generating and responding to billing requests in a wireless subscriber billing system are disclosed. A billing request can be generated at a trusted service. The billing request including billing information is communicated to a wireless subscriber billing system. A validation response to the billing request is generated in the wireless subscriber billing system and the validation response is communicated to the trusted service.

18. The method claim 17, further comprising: associating the tracking ID to the at least one item in the group; and delivering the at least one item and the tracking ID from the group.
19. The method of claim 18, further comprising: generating second transaction data on the delivery of the at least one item including the tracking ID; and processing the second transaction data.
20. The method of claim 19, wherein processing the second transaction data further comprises: preventing billing a subscriber when processing the first transaction data includes generating a subscriber bill.
21. An apparatus comprising: a service value billing (SVB) (410) module in a wireless subscriber billing system configured to receive a billing request from a trusted service (490) and to authenticate the trusted service (490), the billing request being associated with a client device (300); validation logic configured to generate a validation response in response to the billing request; logic configured to create a group at the client device (300) from a main catalog, the group including at least one item; and logic configured to present the group including the at least one item to the client device (300).
22. The apparatus of claim 21 , further comprising: a transaction manager (TXN) (440) configured to receive transaction data related to the billing request and generate a billing event; a client billing module (450) configured to receive the billing event from the transaction manager (440) and generate a bill; and a settlement module (460) configured to receive the billing event from the transaction manager (440), to invoice a carrier, and to pay a provider.
23. The apparatus of claim 22, wherein the TXN (440) associates additional billing information with the billing request to generate the billing event.
