Abstract

Methods and systems of enabling service consumption based on gamification level classification are described. A request to use a first service of a service provider may be received from a user. A usage measure for the user and a first usage measure requirement for the first service of the service provider may be determined. The usage measure may be a measure of how much the user has used services of the service provider. It may be determined if the usage measure satisfies the first usage measure requirement. The user may be enabled to use the first service of the service provider in response to a determination that the usage measure satisfies the first usage measure requirement. The stored usage measure may be increased by a first amount in response to the user using the first service. The usage measure may be a level classification or a number of points.
