Service provisioning utilizing near field communication

1. An article of manufacture comprising:

a non-transitory computer readable medium;

a plurality of programming instructions stored on the computer readable medium and executable by a processor to enable an electronic device to:

create a near radio frequency field around the electronic device,

detect and receive provisioning data provided by a near field communication device, via a first communication link, responsive to the radio frequency field; and

request, from a secure source, via a second communication link coupling the electronic device and the secure source, a service associated with the provisioning data

wherein the second communication link is different from the first communication link.

2. The article of manufacture of claim 1 , wherein the programming instructions are further executable by the processor to enable the electronic device to:

receive, in response to the request, application installation data associated with the requested service.

3. The article of manufacture of claim 2 , wherein the programming instructions are further executable by the processor to enable the electronic device to:

perform a validity verification of the application installation data.

4. The article of manufacture of claim 2 , wherein the programming instructions are further executable by the processor to enable the electronic device to execute the application installation data in an isolated partition of the electronic device.

5. The article of manufacture of claim 2 , wherein the programming instructions are further executable by the processor to enable the electronic device to install the application installation data into an isolated partition of the device.

6. The article of manufacture of claim 2 , wherein the programming instructions are further executable by the processor to enable the electronic device to receive application installation data associated with at least one of internet access, voice over internet protocol service, or downloadable software.

7. The article of manufacture of claim 1 , wherein the programming instructions are executable by the processor to enable the electronic device to receive provisioning data including at least one of a unique user identity, an account identity, an application identity, an installation uniform resource locator, or security information.

8. A method, comprising:

creating, by an electronic device, a radio frequency field around the electronic device;

detecting and receiving, by the electronic device, via a first communication link, provisioning data configured to facilitate the electronic device to receive a service associated with the provisioning data, the provisioning data being provided by a near field communication device responsive to the radio frequency field; and

requesting, by the electronic device from a source, via a second communication link coupling the electronic device and the source, a service associated with the provisioning data,

wherein the second communication link is different from the first communication link.

9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising receiving, by the electronic device in response to the request, application installation data associated with the requested service.

10. The method of claim 9 , further comprising performing, by the electronic device, a validity verification of the application installation data.

11. The method of claim 9 , further comprising executing or installing, by the electronic device, the application installation data in an isolated partition of the device.

12. The method of claim 9 , wherein the application installation data is associated with at least one of internet access, voice over internet protocol service, or downloadable software.

13. The method of claim 8 , wherein the provisioning data includes at least one of a unique user identity, an account identity, an application identity, an installation uniform resource locator, or security information.
