Abstract: Edge-driven network provisioning can include receiving, from a customer premises equipment located at an installation site, a configuration request that identifies the customer premises equipment and a location associated with the installation site. Available connections can be identified for data communication services that are available at the installation site for the customer premises equipment. Provisioning options that are based on the available connections can be generated and a user device associated with the customer premises equipment can be identified. The provisioning options can be provided to the user device and the user device can present the provisioning options in a user interface presented at the user device. A provisioning selection corresponding to a selection of one of the provisioning options can be received and a provisioning command can be sent to one or more recipients to cause a service to be provisioned to the customer premises equipment.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for allowing a reseller to securely access and manage scratch cards at a recharge card management system that is maintained by the service provider. The service provider and reseller users of the recharge card management system can create a scratch card batch that is associated with the reseller account identification. The service provider and reseller users can search, view and modify scratch card data based on security and accessibility. Advantageously, the reseller or distributor can only manage and sell scratch card only to its own account identification, thus protecting such transactions against fraud.
