Global Mobile Value Added Services Market Size study & Forecast, by Type, Product, Store, Verticals and Regional Forecasts 2025-2035

Description

The Global Mobile Value Added Services (MVAS) Market is valued approximately at USD 376.16 billion in 2024 and is anticipated to grow with a robust CAGR of 14.30% over the forecast period 2025-2035. Mobile Value Added Services have evolved from being peripheral extras into core business enablers that not only enhance user engagement but also open diversified revenue streams for operators, content providers, and developers. Fueled by the rapid proliferation of smartphones and the relentless rollout of high-speed mobile networks, MVAS now embodies a confluence of entertainment, utility, and commerce-reshaping how consumers interact with their devices daily. These services are no longer mere add-ons; they are woven into the fabric of mobile experience, enabling everything from streaming music, gaming, and personalized messaging to mobile banking and contextual marketing.

As digital lifestyles continue to dominate consumer behavior, the convergence of AI, IoT, and edge computing is propelling MVAS into a new era of contextual relevance and personalization. The rise of mobile commerce, app-based financial services, and gamified user interfaces are transforming user expectations, while subscription-based revenue models are redefining monetization strategies across app ecosystems. Notably, segments like mobile advertising and mobile wallets are gaining explosive traction, driven by the demand for real-time, location-aware services. Enterprises, especially in retail and BFSI, are leveraging these platforms for customer acquisition, loyalty management, and precision marketing. Additionally, the continuous innovation in mobile entertainment-including AR games and interactive media-is creating a paradigm shift in content consumption.

Geographically, North America holds a commanding position in the Mobile VAS market owing to its advanced telecom infrastructure, high smartphone penetration, and mature digital payment ecosystem. The region's early adoption of 5G and emphasis on data privacy have further bolstered MVAS growth. Meanwhile, Asia Pacific is emerging as the fastest-growing region, underpinned by rapid urbanization, surging mobile subscriber base, and growing middle-class demographics. Countries like India and China are spearheading this expansion, supported by low-cost data plans, government-backed digital initiatives, and a thriving app developer community. Europe continues to grow steadily, benefitting from regulatory support for mobile payments and increased demand for multilingual and localized content offerings across media and entertainment verticals.
