It uses mobile apps, mobile websites, social networking platforms, SMS/MMS, in-app ads, push notifications, and location-based services to reach users on their devices. It is a type of digital advertising that focuses on mobile users and frequently use features like geo-targeting, customization, and real-time engagement to maximize efficacy. The mobile advertising market is driven by the growing smartphone and internet penetration, surge in social media & app usage, advancement in 4G/5G & mobile technology and growth in mobile e-commerce. However, the increasing competition & ad fatigue is expected to hamper the market growth.

Key Trends & Drivers

  • Increasing regulatory changes and privacy concerns: The rise of the industry is being driven by the passage of many consumer privacy laws that push marketers and tech companies to use more honest and open advertising strategies. Also, the end of third-party cookies is causing the usage of new advertising technologies and ways that protect privacy, which is helping the market grow. The industry is also likely to grow as more and more firms move toward first-party data strategies, which use data that customers give them directly with their permission. Also, as more people learn about and care about data privacy, advertisers are being pushed to find a balance between effective targeting and user privacy, which is helping the market flourish.
  • Expansion in 5G technology: 5G technology being deployed around the world is a tremendous opportunity for the mobile marketing industry. 5G lets one move data quicker and make connections more stable. This opens up new opportunities for creative advertising. This makes the medium more fascinating and engaging. This technology helps it make high-quality videos, augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and interactive ads that can connect with viewers on a deeper level. For example, Qualcomm and Verizon have already worked together to show how 5G can make streaming and interactive experiences smooth and high-definition. Interactive video commercials are one of the most common usages. Companies like Pepsi can make live-streaming video commercials with 5G that let people change their minds about what they want to buy while they are watching. 5G provides less latency and quicker throughput, which makes this level of interactivity possible. More and more people are also like ads that incorporate augmented reality. For example, IKEA lets visitors see how things would look in their homes by using mobile phones. 5G makes these experiences considerably smoother since it lets it interact in real time and at a high resolution, which was hard to do with 4G.
