Telecom API Market Size 2023 to 2032

A telecom application programming interface (API) is used to manage web-based services such as cloud-based, banking, and identity management telecom software by arranging programming instructions and standard protocols. The market provides cost-effective solutions by enhancing the system performance of existing web-based applications. These device and communication protocols facilitate agility in mobile application development as it enables the developers to focus on developing primary functions without the need to develop them from scratch.

Growing penetration of the Internet of Things (IoT), wearable, and device integration in the telecom sector is anticipated to positively impact the market over the forecast period. Telecom APIs allow end-to-end IoT solutions as they act as a singular point of interaction between several nodes within a network and hence reducing the multiple third-party service providers for system integration. With growing IoT penetration, the market for telecom API is anticipated to grow at a phenomenal rate. For instance, according to The State of Mobile 2021 report, a research study published by the GSMA, the total number of global IoT connections is expected to reach USD 25.2 billion by 2025 supporting the telecom API market growth over the forecast period.

Telecom API has prominent applications in all areas involving mobile applications and services such as location tracking apps, messaging apps, online mobile payments, and voice & video calls, among others. With the raising number of mobile service subscribers, the demand for mobile-based technologies has increased significantly in past years further increasing the demand for telecom APIs due to the scalability it offers. For instance, the data published by Global Systems for Mobile Communications Association (GSMA), by the end of 2021, 5.2 billion people subscribed to mobile services and is projected to reach 5.7 billion people by 2025. This may bring new opportunities for the telecom API in mobile-based applications.

The recent increasing number of start-ups launched in the field of telecom API in emerging markets such as the Asia Pacific and Africa are expected to open new opportunities areas for the telecom API service providers during the forecast year. Industry giants such as Google, Vodafone, and communications service providers (CSPs) and technology suppliers Group have developed partnerships with start-ups from these emerging markets to create a nurturing ecosystem for the growth of telecom startups by offering their APIs for application developments thus, propelling the market growth.
