Patent attributes
A user subscription profile for a subscription-based mobile application in a wireless mobile device is established with a first mobile application service provider. The wireless device requests service for the mobile application from a second mobile application service provider. The user's subscription profile for the mobile application service is either communicated to the second mobile application service provider, or the mobile application required and allowed service information is accessed from the second mobile application service provider to enable the mobile application service to function with the second mobile application service provider as though the mobile application service were operating within the service area of the first mobile application service provider consistent with the requirements of the second mobile application service provider.
