METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR EMOTIVE AND CONTEXTUAL MESSAGING
Systems and methods provide mobile users with the ability to express themselves beyond their initial SMS or phone call. Automated systems and messages enable user devices to select and send an emoji, message, quote, or joke to send to a second mobile device following a disconnected call or other trigger event. After a triggering event occurs, the SIM Card will communicate with a cloud server using the mobile network. Intelligence within the cloud server determines what type of message, such as an emoji or uplifting phrase, to present to the mobile device. The cloud server has the intelligence to determine the appropriate content based on the triggering event type.
H04L 51/02 - User-to-user messaging in packet-switching networks, transmitted according to store-and-forward or real-time protocols, e.g. e-mail using automatic reactions or user delegation, e.g. automatic replies or chatbot-generated messages

A mobile lottery service and system allows users to play a lottery on a mobile device using their available mobile airtime, eliminating the need for a credit card or a bank and expanding gameplay to a larger base. The mobile lottery service is frictionless to users because it is provided as an embedded solution on the SIM card within a mobile device. Because the software application that enables the mobile lottery service is embedded in the Mobile Operator Network, the user also does not need to have a data plan to play. By allowing users to play on a one-time or subscription basis in addition to prompting users with multiple different games and prices, the mobile lottery service offers a less expensive and more flexible solution when compared to existing market alternatives.
This disclosure provides methods, systems, and platforms for automatically prompting a mobile device user to download an application to their mobile device after a triggering event. Triggering events include calling a business, receiving a call from a business, and navigating to a website. In some embodiments, a business can run a targeted campaign to automatically prompt a mobile device user to download an application. In some embodiments, the platform interacts with an application installed on the mobile device. The prompt displayed on the mobile device includes an actionable option to download an application.

MOBILE-ORIGINATED SECURE MESSAGE TRANSMISSION BETWEEN A SUBSCRIBER IDENTITY MODULE APPLICATION AND A CLOUD SERVER
A method and system for providing secure message transmission of messages between a subscriber identity module and a cloud server is disclosed. A keyset (keyset number, ciphering algorithm name, ciphering key value and cryptographic checksum algorithm name and key value, counter) is created in order to secure mobile-originated messages. An application on a SIM module of a mobile device receives the keyset via SMS message or via another data channel. The SIM module is triggered to send a mobile-originated message to the cloud server from the mobile device. Counter values are incremented, and cryptographic checksums are calculated if either process is used to secure the mobile-originated messages. Once the mobile-originated message is sent to the cloud server, the server uses the keyset to secure the message.
This disclosure provides systems, methods, services, and platforms for automatically prompting a user of a mobile device to send feedback after a triggering event. This disclosure enables Mobile Network Operators to immediately solicit timely feedback from a mobile user after an interaction with the user. When a business, group, or other entity has an active survey campaign, a survey message comprising one or more response options is automatically sent to a mobile device after a triggering event occurs. Based on the user's selected response option, subsequent, follow-up survey messages can be automatically sent to the mobile device.
