Approach For Managing Package-Based Subscriptions For Service Providers

An apparatus for managing computer-implemented applications using packages, the apparatus comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• a memory storing instructions which, when processed by the one or more processors, causes:
• generating and transmitting to a client device, first graphical user interface object data which, when processed at the client device, causes a first graphical user interface object to be displayed at the client device, wherein the first graphical user interface object identifies a package to which computer-implemented applications may be assigned;
• generating and transmitting to the client device second graphical user interface object data which, when processed at the client device, causes a plurality of graphical user interface objects to be displayed at the client device, wherein the plurality of graphical user interface objects are associated with, and identify, a plurality of computer-implemented applications that implement a plurality of computer-implemented services, and that are available for the user to assign to the package;
• receiving, from the client device, first user selection data that indicates a user selection for assignment, to the package, of two or more computer-implemented applications from the plurality of computer-implemented applications;
• in response to receiving, from the client device, the first user selection data that indicates the user selection for assignment, to the package, of the two or more computer-implemented applications from the plurality computer-implemented applications, generating first assignment data that designates an assignment of the two or more computer-implemented applications to the package;
• generating and transmitting to the client device third graphical user interface object data which, when processed at the client device, causes a second plurality of graphical user interface objects to be displayed at the client device, wherein the second plurality of graphical user interface objects identify a plurality of pricing models that are available for the user to assign to the package;
• receiving, from the client device, second user selection data that indicates a user selection for assignment, to the package, of a particular pricing model, from the plurality pricing models;
• and
• in response to receiving, from the client device, the second user selection data that indicates, for assignment to the package, of the particular pricing model, from the plurality of pricing models, generating second assignment data that designates an assignment of the particular pricing model to the package.
