HOW WE HELP
With over 15 years of experience tracking telecom plans and prices globally, Tarifica has been a trusted partner to many of the leading and most well-known services providers (both mobile and fixed broadband), regulatory authorities, transnational NGOs, consultancies, device manufacturers, and financial institutions. Our solutions cater to industry participants seeking enhanced market visibility, and we specialize in addressing business challenges related to the capture, review, notification, and analysis of telecom plans and prices worldwide.
The telecommunications market is a fast-paced environment that is constantly evolving. The introduction of technologies like 5G, the rise of immersive experiences such as AR/VR and the metaverse, the advent of specialized devices, targeted promotions, and other emerging trends all keep the industry in a perpetual state of change and fiercely competitive.
Having access to reliable plan and pricing data is crucial for telecom professionals in business intelligence, marketing, sales, finance, regulatory affairs, and the C Suite, as understanding market trends and competitive developments is essential for navigating this fast-paced environment.
We offer a suite of tools, platforms, and data tailored to meet the specific needs of each department within a telecom company. Our comprehensive data and SaaS solutions empower clients to navigate the competitive landscape effectively and with confidence.
Regulators play a vital role in ensuring a fair market by monitoring prices and the availability of telecom offers. Tarifica supports regulators in benchmarking telecom prices, identifying gaps in offerings, targeting new regulations, tracking emergent technologies, and visualizing services and costs over time. Our extensive experience includes providing regulators with comprehensive datasets, digital analytical tools, benchmarking solutions, and industry expertise.
We also collaborate closely with regulators to help bring transparency and consumer satisfaction to markets through our PlanScout comparison engine. This online tool serves as a central information hub where consumers can view on their computers or mobile devices the mobile and fixed broadband plans in the market that best meet their individual needs and budget requirements.
When consumers can compare options and choose economically appropriate plans, it not only fosters goodwill but also naturally applies downward pricing pressure to the market, enhancing competitiveness without the need for top-down regulations. Click here for more information on PlanScout

The price of mobile plans and devices is a critical input in the GSMA Mobile Connectivity Index, which measures the performance of 170 countries against the key enablers of mobile internet adoption. To measure and compare prices across markets, Tarifica has supplied pricing data for the Index since 2016 and the dataset they have developed is one of the most comprehensive available on mobile pricing in terms of the number of operators and countries included and the number of baskets considered.
