Abstract:

A system and method for activating a wireless services account while requiring only numeric data from a user, such as a social security number, date of birth and/or telephone number. The numeric data, which can be provided by the user through a telephone keypad, can be used to obtain additional information about the user through demographic and credit databases. A business rule and information about the user can be utilized to determine a characteristic of a wireless service plan for the user. A wireless service account can thus be established while requiring only numeric data from the user.
