Systems and methods are disclosed for providing temporary QoS upgrades as loyalty awards. In one embodiment, an Online Charging System (OCS) stores account information for end users that access data services provided by a packet core network. The OCS receives a request involving a data service of an end user from the packet core network. In response to the request, the OCS determines that the end user qualifies for a loyalty award based on the account information for the end user. The OCS then grants a temporary QoS upgrade for the end user as the loyalty award, and transmits an indication of the temporary QoS upgrade to the packet core network. Based on the indication of the temporary QoS upgrade, the packet core network is able to enforce the temporary QoS upgrade as the end user accesses one or more data services.
