Examples are disclosed for fractional wireless broadband usage. In some examples, a portal managed by a usage manager may be accessed to enable a user of a wireless device to establish an agreement with the usage manager for the use of an application via a wireless wide area network (WWAN). The agreement may include policies associated with limits to data bandwidth utilized while the application is used via the WWAN. For these examples, access may be obtained to the WWAN through an operator of the WWAN. The access may be obtained via presentation of credentials to authenticate the wireless device to the operator of the WWAN. Also, other credentials may be presented to authenticate the wireless device or a user of the wireless device for use the application via the WWAN. The application may then be executed at the wireless device according to the agreement. Also, for these examples, the application may be provided by an application service provider having a service level agreement with the usage manager and/or the operator of the WWAN for providing the application for use via the WWAN.
