Convergent Billing Market Size

Convergent Billing Market is projected to witness substantial growth from 2024 to 2032, due to robust advancements in the telecommunication sector and 5G technology. The growing popularity of real-time billing is leading to the incessant need to limit the time spent on advertising new services. The increasing penetration of digital technologies in business environments and the higher complexities of new service architectures will also positively shape the industry outlook.
 

The strong focus on cost-cutting in the manufacturing and maintenance processes is driving the increasing incorporation of single-window billing solutions. For instance, in May 2022, Ericsson and Orange France agreed upon a five-year agreement, with Ericsson Charging as the primary monetization platform for the latter’s 5G subscribers.
 

The use of telecommunication systems has also grown considerably over recent years, further influencing the demand for convergent billing solutions. According to the International Telecommunication Union report, in 2022, mobile cellular subscriptions in U.S. reached 110 subscriptions per 100 people.
 

The ongoing crisis between Ukraine and Russia rattled the global telecom sector as several regulators across Russia focused on impeding the internet services in the country. As per CNBC reports, Roscosmos denied launching over 30 satellites for OneWeb due the sanctions imposed by the U.K. for its invasion. Furthermore, smartphone companies like Apple Inc. halted their operations, sales, and exports to Russia. These factors, in tandem, have negatively impacted the telecom industry and may continue to do so in the coming years as well, consequently limiting the market growth.
