Systems and methods are provided for determining precedence between Radio Access Network (RAN) rules and Access Network Discovery and Selection Function (ANDSF) rules when a mobile communication device has access to more than one set of rules for offloading data. Systems and methods for transmitting an offloadable Access Point Name (APN) to a mobile communication device when RAN rules are used. Embodiments of the present disclosure combine the advantages of signaling methods when offloading information to a mobile communication device after a RAN rule has been satisfied such that a base station is able to broadcast a signal that enables all devices camped on an serving cell to offload to the APN.
