Definitions

  • This invention relates, in general, to prepaid services industries such as but not limited to communication, entertainment, transportation, utility where the consumers have to pay before the service usage and then can consume the service until their balance amount does not allow them for further usage.
  • Prepaid services are becoming more and more preferred then the usual postpaid models.
  • the prepaid consumption model was currently leaded by the mobile telecom industry, and immediately followed by gaming, debit cards and utility sectors. Considering another factor which is the half of the global adult consumers are unbanked (do not prefer current financial industry electronic payment service nor do not have a banking account) the prepaid consumption is a proven channel preferred by the consumers of various industries in an increasing pattern.
  • service providers In a prepaid consumption, service providers usually allocate one (or sometimes more) account for each of their consumers having a balance amount of zero units in the beginning.
  • the balance unit can be in variety form like currency, time, duration, volume etc. depending on the nature of the consumed service.
  • the service providers present their consumers various ways of increasing their balance such as prepaid cards, electronic transfer, bonuses, cash-in in Point of sales.
  • a consumer obtaining the unit via the conventional ways then transfer (or recharge) these units into his/her balance of his/her account in the service provider via various ways including but not limited to electronic devices (telephone short messages, internet, kiosks, Point of Sales [POS] devices). His/her account balance is being recharged, and then the consumer may start using the offered service.
  • electronic devices telephone short messages, internet, kiosks, Point of Sales [POS] devices
  • the usage of the service is converted to the units and consumed through the balance of the consumer, which results a decrease in the amount of his/her/its balance.
  • the balance unit amaunt is less than the minimum allowed unit for the further usage of the service, then the consumers are not allowed to continue, and they are expected to repeat the recharge activity to increase their balance to the minimum amount required for the consumption.
  • the invention relates to a method for enabling the consumers of a prepaid service including but not limited to communication networks (mobile telephony, land telephony, internet usage), toll gates (roads, bridges, ferries etc.) , utility meters (electric, gas, water, etc.), payments (loyalty cards, subscription cards) to use the service for some defined extended appropriate measure (time, unit, pass, money etc.) when their balances does not allow them to use the desired service and/or there is no other way of increasing their account balances through the conventional methods (top-up, recharge, refill etc), with either further recollection with some extension fee after the moment of balance increase through the conventional methods, or the front collection of the extension fee while the consumer is using the conventional methods of the service provider to increase the service balance.
  • the goal of this invention is among other goals to increase the benefits of the used service by giving the consumer an opportunity to continue using the service when either the existing conditions do not allow the consumers to increase the related balance or as convenience when the conditions of increasing the balance less preferable with the conventional methods or an opportunity to use the service in emergency situations when there is no possibility to increase the balance.
  • the requests or subscriptions are then converted in to the digital format when required and then are processed through the invented device whose outputs are the extension amounts and the optional extra information to the responder regarding result of the process.

  • per diem rate customers are incentivized to cure a negative balance as the fee amount increases as time elapses through the balance exception cycle.
  • customers can be notified of balance exception situations. The notifications can sent based upon policies, preferences, rules or interfaces.
  • a bad debt balance (acquired under a post-paid regime) is storied in a bad debt database associated with the customer who accumulated the bad debt. Deposits by the customer into a pre-paid account are then accepted and the balance tracked in a pre-paid account database. Requests for service by the customer, e.g. pre-paid telephone service, are tracked by the prepaid application server and the services rendered while debiting the pre-paid service database according to the services used. Such requests for pre-paid service also serve to trigger an automatic withdrawal of an additional amount from the pre-paid account which is then applied to the bad debt balance.
  • the said method mainly covers the post-paid services to pre-paid when the post-paid account has bad debt, by accumulating some amount of the payments in the consumers balance to use it in the pre-paid phase.
