Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2004072832A1] The invention relates to the managing of user rights to digital applications in a telecommunications system comprising a mobile network, a service provider's server, and a mobile station. Applications can be downloaded from the network to the mobile station, in which they have to be activated before use. According to the invention, information is maintained in the service provider's server about subscribers to whom user rights to an application have been granted. The subscriber's user rights are checked (4-2) before the application is activated in the mobile station. If the subscriber has the rights, an application activation key specific to the subscriber terminal and to the subscriber is generated (4-5, 4-10). The activation key is transmitted (4-7, 4-11) to the mobile station and the application is activated (4-8, 4-12) in the mobile station with the activation key. The application can then be used in the mobile station.
