  • Systems and methods of split billing
    Patent number: 10686944
    Abstract: A method includes receiving input during execution of a first application at an electronic device. The input indicates that data usage of the electronic device is to be billed to a first data usage account of a plurality of data usage accounts associated with the electronic device. The method further includes generating a request during execution of a second application at the electronic device. The method also includes, based on the input, encapsulating, by the electronic device, the request to generate an encapsulated request that identifies a destination endpoint provisioned for the first data usage account. The method further includes transmitting the encapsulated request from the electronic device to a network element.
