摘要

A method, system and client service node is provided that rewards users with reduced cost or free wireless service that register onto the network for service and engage in certain predetermined activities available on the network. The network includes several service provider networks, for example, computer networks such as the Internet (102) and an Intranet (104), a public switched telephone network (106) and a wireless network (108). Also included in the network is a client service node (114). The client service node includes (i) providing user access to the service provider networks and value added services, (ii) a memory device for storing user information and (iii) a processor, which is responsive to certain predetermined actions by a user, such as utilization of services available on the service provider networks and other value added services as well as participation in a managed mutual fund, for enabling reduced cost or free wireless telephone service to the user.
