[0002] The following description of related art is intended to provide background information pertaining to the field of the disclosure. This section may include certain aspects of the art that may be related to various features of the present disclosure. However, it should be appreciated that this section be used only to enhance the understanding of the reader with respect to the present disclosure, and not as admissions of prior art.
[0003] Generally, various platforms may allow access to one or more services and products after a user account creation i.e., a user may have to create a unique username and a password. To create a user account on the platforms, the user may need to provide basic details such as a first name, a last name, a date of birth, a gender, and the like.
[0004] Currently, a process of Internet account creation or creating a unique internet Identity (ID) may include additional (frictional) steps, which may be inconvenient to an end consumer who may not be comfortable reading and/or typing the username and password. One of the additional step includes reading instructions to create the user account, as some of the users are not comfortable with the language of the instructions mentioned. Another additional step may include typing letters, in which the user may need to supposed to type details such as the first name, the last name, the date of birth, and the like. Choosing and creating a unique password may also be another additional step, where the users may struggle to successfully complete the internet account creation process.
[0005] Therefore, there is a need in the art to provide systems and methods that can overcome the shortcomings of the existing prior art, by providing a system and a method for creating automated internet account(s) using a telecommunication network.

[0045] In an embodiment, the One Time Password (OTP) transmitting/receiving engine (216) may transmit a One Time Password (OTP) to the SIM ID associated with the electronic device (104), upon determining the SIM ID. In an embodiment, the OTP may be transmitted and received by a subscriber Identity and Access Management (IDAM) module in the electronic device (104).
[0046] In an embodiment, the One Time Password (OTP) transmitting/receiving engine (216) may receive an OTP verification code with a Single Sign-On (SSO) token from the electronic device (104).
[0047] In an embodiment, the user information/electronic device identity identifying engine (218) may identify at least one of user information and an electronic device identity, from the SSO token. In an embodiment, the user information may be mapped to the SIM ID by the pre-defined network operator. In an embodiment, the user information includes, but are not limited to, at least one of a first name of the user, a last name of the user, a Date of Birth (DOB) of the user, gender of the user, Identification (ID) information of the user, and the like.

In an embodiment, the created internet account may be used for signing up for an internet service. In an embodiment, the created internet account using the SSO is used to sign up for one or more groups of the internet services using the created internet account identifier.
[0049] FIG. 3 illustrates an exemplary sequence diagram representation for creating automated internet account(s) using a telecommunication network, in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure.
[0050] As illustrated, the sequence may include interactions between the electronic device (104) having the SIM, a setup wizard (302) of the electronic device (104), and a subscriber Identity and Management (IDAM) module (304) of the electronic device (104).
[0051] At step (312), the electronic device (104) may be powered on for the first time, or the electronic device (104) may be factory reset. The setup wizard (302) may detect SIM card in the electronic device (104).
[0052] At step (314), the setup wizard (302) may check SIM Identifier (ID) from the subscriber Identity and Management (IDAM) module (304).
[0053] At step (316), the subscriber IDAM module (304) may respond to the setup wizard (302), regarding the availability of the SIM ID.
[0054] At step (318), the setup wizard (302) may transmit One Time Password (OTP) to the subscriber IDAM module (304).
[0055] At step (320), the subscriber IDAM module (304) may respond to the setup wizard (302), regarding the reception of the OTP.
[0056] At step (322), the setup wizard (302) may transmit an OTP verification request corresponding to the SIM ID, to the subscriber IDAM module (304).
[0057] At step (324), the subscriber IDAM module (304) may transmit back a success message with a Single Sign On (SSO) token to the setup wizard (302).
[0058] At step (326), the setup wizard (302) may transmit the request to obtain user information from the SSO token, to the subscriber IDAM module (304).
[0059] At step (328), the subscriber IDAM module (304) may extract user information from the SSO token and transmit a success message to the setup wizard (302).
[0060] At step (330), the setup wizard (302) may create a unique internet account using the user information. For example, the example format of the username is “commonname.identifier@mail.com”, more specifically, the username may be “ABBACC.91xxxxxxxxxx@XYZmail.com”.
[0061] In an exemplary embodiment, the subscriber IDAM module (304) may identify user information with a regular user Single Sign On (SSO) token. An Application Programming Interface (API) associated with the subscriber IDAM (304) may return the user information of the user identified by the SSO token. The API may be intended to expose via a Serialize and Compress (SECO) technique to fetch user information from the SIM and client applications.
[0062] In an exemplary embodiment, an identifier check at the subscriber IDAM module (304) may be provided in table 1 and table 2.

[0063] In a scenario, if a user is discontinuing with a subscribed subscriber identification module (SIM) card (e.g., the user is not recharging the the mobile number associated with the SIM card for long time), then the user may have an option to continue with an earlier created internet account after a two factor authentication. The user can change a first mobile number associated with the created internet account to a second mobile number after verifying an one-time password OTP sent to both the first mobile number and second mobile number. In case the first mobile number is not accessible or not active, the user may need to verify one or more know your customer (KYC) details such as Identity card, date of birth (DOB), address for both first mobile number and the second mobile number.– Further, the user can call from the first mobile number or the second mobile number to the customer care to register the second mobile number to the internet account which was created using the first number. Hence, the user may choose not to continue with the subscribed SIM forever, however may like to have an internet account to exist even if the user have changed their SIM card.
