Methods and apparatus are provided for automatically subscribing to a web-based service or resource based on reading a physical tag (e.g., an RFID tag) placed within range of a network device (e.g., a home network router) in a smart home network. The tag may store basic information about the web-based service or resource. When the tag is read, the network device may automatically contact the service or resource provider in an effort to subscribe a user to that service or resource, such that the service or resource may be enabled at that network device. In this manner, the user may quickly and easily subscribe to web-based services and/or resources, without having to configure anything, select any menu choices, type in any information, etc.
