Abstract

As described herein, a system, method, and computer program are provided for using artificial intelligence for online charging. A request for use of a network service by an entity is identified. Account allowances/balances to which the requested use of the network service can be charged are determined. Insights generated by an artificial intelligence system are accessed, where the insights predict future use of the network service (e.g. that will be charged to each account allowance/balance). A quota size to be requested in association with a select account allowance/balance is determined, based on the request for the use of the network service and the insights. A reservation request to reserve the quota size from the select account allowance/balance is generated. The use of the network service is authorized, when the quota size is reserved from the select account allowance/balance for the use of the network service.
