Understanding the opportunity

Market size provides important context, but it does not show how individual services are promoted, which propositions are most visible or how customer journeys work in practice.

MCP helps close that gap by monitoring digital service advertising and following customer journeys from the initial promotion through to the payment and subscription stages.

This provides evidence of:

  • the services and providers visible within monitored traffic
  • how propositions are being presented
  • the price points and billing flows being used
  • differences between carriers and traffic sources
  • where customer journeys may require closer attention

Cameroon offers access to a mobile audience already engaging with entertainment, information and educational content.

Current market evidence can help you consider:

  • which categories and propositions are active
  • how comparable services are promoted
  • which providers are already visible
  • how customer journeys differ between carriers
  • which price points are being used
  • where there may be space for a stronger proposition

This supports better-informed decisions about service development, positioning and market entry.

Aggregators play an important role in connecting merchants and CSPs with carriers and enabling billing, distribution and service delivery.

Independent market intelligence can help you:

  • compare activity across carriers
  • understand the services and providers already visible
  • identify differences in customer journeys
  • assess potential partnership opportunities
  • recognise where traffic or compliance requires closer attention

This can support more informed conversations with carriers, merchants and content partners.

Digital services can help carriers extend their role beyond connectivity and develop additional sources of revenue.

Independent evidence provides greater visibility of:

  • how partner services are promoted
  • how subscription journeys operate
  • what consumers experience outside carrier-owned channels
  • which propositions and providers are most visible
  • where closer oversight may be needed

This can support digital service growth while maintaining customer care and confidence.
