Dublin, Feb. 15, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Prepaid Wireless in the United States: Market Analysis and Forecast 2017 - 2022" report to their offering. No longer carrying the sigma it once had as a service mostly for the credit-challenged, a large number of customers choose prepaid over post-paid. The reasons are many and varied including lower costs for many of the same features and benefits as post-paid plans such as smartphones and advanced feature/functionality. Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) is another important driver for prepaid wireless as evidenced by an estimated 28 million consumers that own an unlocked device in the USA market. BYOD is a significant trend as end-users demand flexibility and brand loyalty has evolved to the extent that many customers identify more with their smartphone provider and OTT applications than the cellular service provider. The future of prepaid wireless is very bright as it becomes more fully integrated with mobile commerce by way of stored value and converged services involving next generation technologies such as WebRTC. This research evaluates the prepaid wireless market in the United States including major provider analysis and service assessment. The report analyzes major MVNO companies and offerings. The report also provides a view into the future of prepaid wireless and market forecasts through 2021 including subscribers and Revenue by Voice vs. Data vs. VAS and by Connectivity Type.
