Wmode's ClearMode, which facilitates m-commerce payment capabilities, will allow the dozen or more wireless carriers of Airborne's PocketBoxOffice, billed as the world’s first Micro Entertainment Network, to implement new payment methods including micro-billing (pay-per-play), subscription-based and license-based.

PocketBoxOffice’s wireless carriers located across North America offer their subscribers a subscription to 12 different channels comprising of 83 programs specifically designed for handheld devices.

Once a subscriber selects any one of PocketBoxOffice features such as Buzztime Trivia, Backstreet Betting, Doonesbury or Dear Abby, they will be charged for the service via their phone bill, which in the industry is referred to as a Bill-to-Phone payment model.

ClearMode serves as the payment processing component of Airborne’s RUNWAY platform, which is the Web- based open-architecture system built to handle the flow and scheduling of Micro-Entertainment content. This additional component allows Airborne to customized payment models, providing more options for subscribers.

According to Garner Bornstein, CEO of Airborne, "The new payment solution will allow us to be more efficient, open up new revenue streams for both carriers and our content partners and scale to manage the significant volume of transactions that Airborne’s network experiences."
