The European Patent Office has recently granted a patent to Mastercard for a billing system based on IOTA's Tangle. The patent application, titled "Method and System for Device Micropayment Aggregation based on Tangle Network," was submitted by the payments platform back in February 2019. 

Mastercard's patented method includes an approach for billing device usage using a transparent storage system. For instance, the approach could be used for devices like computer printers, 3D printers or photocopiers.
