Abstract

Methods and systems may provide for conducting an authentication of an external card associated with a borrower of a device, and tracking a usage of the device by the borrower if the authentication of the external card is successful. In addition, the usage may be reported to a billing service. The usage may be billed according to a fee based policy so that payment for the usage may be obtained from the borrower of the device rather than the owner of the device.
