There is provided a method to enable mobile devices to rendezvous on a shared communication service. The method includes steps for creating, via a device, a shared username and a shared password for a private channel in a communication network, determining a unique channel identification (ID) for the private channel based on the shared username and the shared password, and configuring the device with the shared username and the shared password. The method further includes steps for subscribing the device to the private channel using the unique channel ID, transmitting, in response to a discovery request, a self-identification discovery response over the private channel, and broadcasting data between the device and each additional device connected to the private channel.
