2019 Pricing Strategies for Data | Consumer Mobile, Broadband, and Fixed Wireless Propositions from 20 MNOs - ResearchAndMarkets.com

The "Pricing Strategies for Data" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Annual data usage continues to grow while MNO revenue growth stagnates. Data connectivity income has grown too slowly to offset falling voice revenue. Meanwhile, volumes grow exponentially, enabled by ever more generous (sometimes unlimited) allowances, driven by apps and services that feed revenue to OTT players.

In that context, this report reviews a range of consumer mobile, broadband and fixed wireless propositions from 20 MNOs - 18 of which have launched 5G in 2019.

Inspirations

• Data volume growth with static revenues
• Decreasing viability of pure connectivity as a sole revenue source
• Rush of launches (40+) of 5G networks by August

Issues

• Disintermediation reducing connectivity as a percentage of service revenues
• Need for 5G capital investment prior to 4G payback for operators
• Danger of relegation of connectivity to utility status as 5G deploys

Implications

• MNOs risk becoming wholesale providers by default
• Urgent need to collaborate with OTT/app providers
• 5G offers opportunity for new business models for innovative MNOs innovators
