Abstract
Presented herein are techniques to facilitate wireless authorization based on in-line assurance and tariffing information. In one example, a method may include obtaining, by a home network, a request to authorize access of a roaming subscriber for a visited network; determining whether the request includes visited network charging information and visited network metric information; based on determining that the request includes the visited network charging information and the visited network metric information, determining whether one or more visited network metrics satisfy one or more threshold metrics for the roaming subscriber; and based on determining that the one or more visited network metrics satisfy the one or more threshold metrics for the roaming subscriber, authorizing access of the roaming subscriber for the visited network.
