Beyond affordability, MVNOs excel in targeting niche demographics and underserved segments.

Others focus on younger audiences, bundling mobile data with streaming services or gaming perks to appeal to digital natives. In the business sector, MVNOs provide enterprise solutions such as machine-to-machine (M2M) connectivity for Internet of Things (IoT) devices, enabling industries like logistics, healthcare, and agriculture to monitor assets, track shipments, or manage remote equipment efficiently.

Another key application lies in branded mobile services. Retail chains, banks, and entertainment companies have launched MVNOs to strengthen customer loyalty and diversify revenue streams. For instance, a supermarket chain might offer a mobile plan with exclusive discounts for shoppers, while a media company could bundle subscriptions with data packages. These applications highlight the adaptability of the MVNO model, allowing it to serve individual consumers and specialized industries with tailored solutions.

The increasing use of digital public services and online transactions is another key factor contributing to market growth. In 2024, 70% of EU internet users interacted with public authorities online, highlighting the shift toward digital government services. MVNOs can benefit from this trend by offering specialized mobile plans catering to digital service users, ensuring seamless access to e-government platforms. Furthermore, with 72% of EU internet users engaging in e-commerce, MVNOs can introduce data plans that support seamless online shopping experiences, secure digital payments, and customer support for e-commerce platforms. Hence, the rapid digitalization of Europe’s economy and society is fuelling demand for reliable, affordable, and data-driven mobile services.
