Despite the intense hype, 5G finds itself in a precarious position. The heavy investment in networks and spectrum has yet to show signs of delivering a sustainable return in revenue and margin. A new monetization strategy is needed.
Estimates suggest that FWA connections can generate 80-90 times the traffic that a normal smartphone connection does for only 1-2 times ARPU uplift. This can quickly result in mobile networks becoming overloaded, with some operators forecasting that FWA-derived traffic could be responsible for generating 30-50% of their entire network traffic.
MATRIXX digital monetization is a unique alternative to legacy billing approaches. Transparency, accuracy and trust become the new bywords for telco revenue management.
MATRIXX is the only platform that enables CSPs to overcome the limitations of traditional billing systems, delivering increased agility and a foundation for cost-efficient and seamless digital transformation.
A Connectivity Marketplace is a hub where various stakeholders can purchase, manage and integrate connectivity for a diverse array of devices. It operates in symbiosis with 5G’s speed, low latency and expanded capacity, facilitating a proliferation of opportunities for businesses to capitalize on the Internet of Things (IoT) and other cutting-edge technologies.
Sharing plans and allowances across any enterprise size is an approach to managing thousands of employees and their plans that gives real-time visibility of consumption at a company, department and employee level, and provides controls to manage thresholds and limits by the enterprise themselves.
With bold and progressive thinking, providing and monetizing network APIs could be a major growth catalyst for telcos. The revenue opportunity has been forecast at $20 billion by 2028, making this is an opportunity that cannot be ignored.
The advent of 5G, the recent rise in telecommuting (including work-from-home flexibility), and the swelling tsunami of digital experiences are critical change agents in the consumer market. What CSPs need is a creative portfolio and service delivery mix to entice consumers to pay CSPs to deliver these experiences.
Change agents are bold, radical, creative innovators who do things differently. Different because legacy BSS approaches are taxing growth and innovation in telco. There is a better way.
MATRIXX CTO Marc Price discusses advances in 5G technology and evolving business models that are creating new monetization opportunities for service providers.

If CSPs are to capitalize on the overall edge opportunity, they must pivot from the “network-out” model of service delivery that has served them for the last 20+ years to a customer-focused, “value-in” model. New edge services are driven by a new monetization model.
Leading with an inherently transport-centric portfolio leaves wholesale operators struggling for differentiation, resulting in margin & revenue challenges.
CSPs are evolving their monetization platform so that they can unlock the full potential of 5G, and evolve from pure voice and data providers into leaders of the digital economy. This eBook uses real life use cases and examples to describes how this is happening, and the essential technical and functional requirements behind it.
Join CTO Marc Price in this TM Forum webinar to understand how CSPs are moving beyond selling traditional connectivity to providing customers with platform-based products and services as part of a wide digital ecosystem.
