System and method for contextual service delivery via mobile communication devices

In a computer automated system comprising a processor, a memory, and encoded instructions stored in the memory and implemented by the processor, a method comprising:

• authenticating a pre-configured mobile device, wherein the pre-configuration comprises invoking a contextual service application at a contextual service delivery device;
• wherein the invoked contextual service application sends a collected user credential, a read short range communication tag ID comprised in a passive short range communication tag and a context service point code to the computer automated system;
• based on the sent user credential, the short range communication tag ID and the context service point code, authenticating the contextual service delivery device by the authenticated pre-configured mobile device;
• based on the authentication of the contextual service delivery device, retrieving an IP address associated with the contextual service delivery device;
• and
• releasing a requested service at the contextual service delivery device.

A wireless communication device configured to:

• authenticate itself to a computer automated system via a network, based on a pre-configuration wherein the pre-configuration comprises invoking a contextual service application at a contextual service delivery device;
• wherein the invoked contextual service application sends a collected user credential, a read short range communication tag ID comprised in a passive short range communication tag and a context service point code to the computer automated system;
• based on the sent user credential, the short range communication tag ID and the context service point code, authenticate the contextual service delivery device;
• based on the authentication of the contextual service delivery device, cause the computer automated system to retrieve an IP address associated with the contextual service delivery device;
• and
• trigger the release of a requested service via the computer automated system, at the contextual service delivery device.
