The traditional Communication Service Providers (CSPs) are losing their presence in the market due to the on-going disruptiveness in MVAS offerings along with the increasing role of third-party OTT players. Thus, the users are moving toward Digital Service Providers (DSPs), which has reached a pivotal position in the industry digitization. Several telecom companies have started offering DSP services to provide better and improved experience to their customers.

The mobile value-added services in cloud market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 21.9% during the forecast period 2017–2023.

Value chain players are focusing on offering sophisticated services due to increasing demand for cloud MVAS. The increasing smartphones and Internet penetration, high network services, and enterprises’ strategies toward the mobile platform have brought a bundle of business opportunities for network providers. In addition, network providers are enhancing the partnership with content providers, technology enablers, and content aggregators.

In recent years, governments have increased their adoption rate of cloud-MVAS to improve citizen-centric services and e-governance services. Furthermore, they are investing in offering public Wi-Fi services, which is helping service providers to enhance their customer base.

MVAS is classified into two major services: consumer VAS and enterprise VAS. The adoption and usage of these services are majorly driven by increasing Internet penetration and smartphones user base. Currently, the consumer cloud VAS segment is expected to contribute a higher share to the cloud VAS market when compared to enterprise VAS. These segments are largely driven by the growing economies that are primarily dependent on traditional value-added services via SMS, IVR, USSD, and others due to the lack of connectivity and lower Internet penetration. The consumer VAS market revenue is estimated to be $48.4 billion in 2017 and is expected to reach $171.7 billion by 2023, growing at a CAGR of 23.5% during the forecast period 2017–2023.

Cloud-based mobile value-added services are accessible via delivery platforms such as SMS, voice, video, digital platforms, and others. The SMS market revenue is estimated to reach $111.74 billion by 2023, growing at a CAGR of 21.5% during the forecast period 2017–2023. SMS is an effective delivery platform since all kinds of mobile phones support SMS services. The transaction business SMS and bulk message services are expected to drive the SMS market, followed by A2P SMS delivery platforms that reach billions of customers in brief time and less investment; and moreover, urban area users prefer instant message application.

Cloud MVAS is expected to be adopted at a higher rate across various regions. The Americas and European regions are the leading acquirers of cloud MVAS, and APAC and Middle East & Africa are expected to be the fast-growing regions due to the less penetration of cloud VAS. The Latin American and Middle East countries are expected to post a huge demand for cloud MVAS due to the enormous potential for such services. The US, Brazil, Mexico, the UK, Germany, China, and Israel are expected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period.

The mobile VAS in cloud market is expected to become an alternative revenue source for telecom companies as the revenue is declining from the major revenue contributor, i.e., calls. The market is expected to become highly competitive due to the increasing interest and entry of technology companies, start-ups, and others to the MVAS market.” Srujan, Research Analyst at Infoholic Research
