Overview

Our new Carrier Billing research suite provides an in-depth analysis on how this payment technology is developing in both mature and evolving markets. Its utility across key market verticals, including digital content (music, video, games, lifestyle, and ePublishing), is quantified in our accompanying market forecasts. Additionally, emerging market opportunities across developing verticals, including digital ticketing, gambling, and physical goods, are also discussed.

The report assesses how other established payment methods, including digital wallets, credit cards, BNPL (Buy Now, Pay Later), and A2A (Account-to-Account) payments, are impacting the penetration of carrier billing across multiple markets. Furthermore, Juniper Research leverages its expertise to hypothesise the impact of the anticipated PSD3 (Payment Service Directory 3) on carrier billing payments.

The carrier billing research reports provide a detailed analysis on how evolving technologies, including the standardisation of APIs, will impact the future of carrier billing; enabling stakeholders from networks operators, merchants, regulators and aggregators to understand the major factors, trends and investment opportunities available.
