Abstract: A network device receives first signaling from a first parent device that assigns a first task for completion by a first child, and includes a first task allotment designated by the parent for the first child's completion of the first task. The network device receives second signaling, from a first child device, indicating that the first child has completed the first task. The network device sends third signaling to the first parent device requesting approval of the completion of the first task, and receives, responsive to the third signaling, an indicator of an approval, or a rejection, from the first parent device. The network device initiates provision of the first task allotment to the first child based on receipt of the indicator of approval from the first parent device.

Abstract: An exemplary method includes a subsidized access management system detecting a request provided by a user of an access device for the user to receive subsidized access to network content, identifying a plurality of user parameters provided by the user and that define a plurality of conditions associated with the subsidized access to the network content and that the user is willing to experience in order to receive the subsidized access to the network content, selecting a sponsor from a pool of potential sponsors and that is willing to sponsor the subsidized access to the network content in accordance with the plurality of user parameters, and providing the user with the subsidized access to the network content by way of the access device in accordance with a subsidized access arrangement between a subsidized access provider and the sponsor. Corresponding systems and methods are also described.
