Various systems and methods for providing a policy realization framework for a communications network are disclosed. The policy realization framework can be an application and service layer policy framework that is separate and distinct from the network layer policy framework. As such, policy decisions can be made remote from the network layer, and common policies across multiple networks are possible. A policy intelligence rules system for a policy realization framework, and methods of implementing the same, are also disclosed. The policy intelligence rules system can receive a policy request associated with a request for a network resource and policies pertaining to the policy request, which can include operator policies and subscriber specific policies. In response to determining that a policy conflict exists between the policies, the policy intelligence rules system can resolve the policy conflict and generate a rule for the communications network to use in response to the request.

Systems, devices, and methods for providing a dynamic subscription update feature in a wireless communications network are disclosed herein. An exemplary system for providing a dynamic subscription update feature in a wireless communications network is configured to receive offline data and in-call data from a plurality of network entities for use in determining, in accordance with one or more rules, whether at least one subscriber is eligible to receive a subscription update offer and receive a response message indicating whether the at least one subscriber accepts or declines the offer. A device configured to receive a subscription update offer and respond with an acceptance or decline message is disclosed. Methods for operating the aforementioned system and device are also disclosed.
