Download account with shared data plan

摘要

A device is configured to create an account including a plurality of members and a shared data plan. The device stores a content associated with the account and the shared data plan is set up to be charged for data used on an operating network to provide the content to the plurality of members associated with a plurality of operator networks. Further, the device provides the content to a user device associated with a member of the plurality of members. The content is provided through the operator network. The device charges the shared data plan for the amount of data used by the operator network to provide the content to the user device without causing a data plan between the member and the operator network to be charged for the amount of data.
