For instance, CELL C (South African mobile network provider) announced 61% of its network had migrated to partner towers, as a part of its network migration strategy. The strategy involves eliminating spending money on infrastructure, and a telecom provider operating as a wholesale buyer of capacity and services. This strategy enables telecom providers to permanently offer roaming services via other networks. The company has achieved tremendous success in implementing this strategy which has enabled 100% migration in six provinces. Companies in the roaming tariff industry are also undertaking various mutually beneficial initiatives for themselves and the market alike.

Additionally, owing to intense competition among key players, companies are engaged in introducing international roaming packages to maintain their customer base since customers switch from one service provider to the other due to price differentiation. These factors are expected to fuel market growth. Roaming enables users to use their mobile devices outside the geographical coverage that home network operators provide. Roaming tariffs are the extra charges roamers pay when entering a foreign network. The additional charges are paid for various roaming services, such as SMS, data, and voice. Multiple factors are anticipated to fuel the growth of the roaming tariff industry. The rising development of mobile phone users, the growing popularity of 3G and 4G-enabled smartphones increasing unique subscribers, and mobile internet penetration are anticipated to positively impact the market growth over the forecast period. Although international tourism has been a major contributor to the growth of the roaming tariff industry, a free trade agreement between various countries across the globe is expected to decelerate the growth of the roaming tariff industry. For instance, in January 2023, Brazil announced the scrapping of roaming charges for visitors to Chile by end of January 2023. This move comes as promised by a free trade agreement between the 2 countries. The mobile operators and MVNOs which offer international roaming services to users who are passing through Chile will be compelled to supply with the same tariff price as offered in Brazil. Faster modes of transportation, which are also cost-effective, have paved the way for an increase in tourism, especially internationally. According to the United Nations World Tourism Organization (UNWTO), international tourist arrivals had tripled from January to July 2022, by 172%, compared to the same period in 2021. Increased tourism is a direct fuel to accelerating the growth of the market. Roaming Tariff Market Report Scope
The companies in the roaming tariff industry are also coming up with initiatives targeting the tourist audience, which has also been able to drive the growth of the market.

The plan will be valid in 184 countries, with several international roaming plans.

With the increase in purchasing power, the public will adopt new/better services, enabling the growth of all markets in general. Increased purchasing power, combined with increased smartphone availability and a wide variety of network services, will drive the development of the market during the forecast period.
