In accordance with the system and method, the mobile terminals are connected via the communication network to any of a plurality of information providing servers for receiving information. A settlement server is provided for performing electronic settlements of communication connection charges for the mobile terminals. An internet interface unit is provided for enabling the mobile terminals to be connected to the communication network and for charging the users of the mobile terminals for the usage of the internet interface service system.
