<p>An advertising subsidized communication service is provided that can be utilized by eligible subscribers in instances designated by mobile operators or advertisers. An eligible subscriber that meets certain criteria, such as having a low pre-paid balance, can opt-in to an advertising subsidized service initiated through an SCP proxy for the advertising service platform. The subscriber receives advertising through selected channels, such as voice injection, text messaging or other media, which advertising subsidizes subscriber communication service. The subsidized service may be limited in some regard to number of calls, call duration or incoming calls, as examples. The subscriber may be automatically opted-out of the subsidized service upon payment being applied to a pre-paid for post-paid service account. The opt-in process for subsidized service occurs in real-time and may be prompted through a number of channels, such as voice or text messages.</p> |
