The global mobile marketing market size is estimated to reach USD 337.8 billion by 2027, registering a CAGR of 22.9% over the forecast period, according to a new study conducted by Grand View Research, Inc. Mobile marketing is a promotional activity that helps connect advertisers to end users through push notifications and emails, among other communications sent directly to customers. Increasing use of smartphones to access online content coupled with the growing trend of location-based mobile marketing are expected to drive the market. Moreover, rising number of social media platforms and users accessing internet and popular multimedia content, such as videos, audio, and text is anticipated to drive the market.

Global Positioning Systems (GPS) and the Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technologies are used by enterprises to acquire consumer preference data, which is further analyzed to target nearby consumers by sending them notifications about relevant products and services. Mobile device is the largest source of digital data and most of the data is accessed through social media platforms, web browsers, and mobile applications.

Consumers are increasingly preferring online shopping owing to the increasing penetration of smartphones. Companies are highly focused on advertising their products and services through e-commerce channels. This helped the retail segment capture a significant revenue share in 2020. Key players focus on mergers and acquisitions that will help them gain greater regional presence and target new consumers. However, growing privacy concerns coupled with the rapidly increasing use of ad blockers to avoid unwanted content may hamper the growth of the market.

Mobile marketing is a multi-channel digital promotional activity to reach the target audience through their mobile devices, such as smartphones and tablets, via email, SMS and MMS, social media, websites, and apps. Based on research conducted by the Global System for Mobile Communications Association (GSMA) research, approximately 75% of the total number of mobile users would be using smartphones by the end of 2027. The rapidly growing adoption of smartphones and tablets coupled with robust internet penetration in developing countries, such as China and India would significantly drive the market.
