2021 Tariff Trend Report: Relationship between e-services and the Mobile Network Operator (MNO) - An analysis of 30 operators' e-services
Telecomspricing examines the relationship between e-services and the mobile network operator (MNO). It starts by examining the types of e-services that are on offer, how they are being integrated with existing plans, the development of new e-services as part of a new ecosystem.
Additionally, selected MNOs are offering a wide range of non-telecom services as they seek to diversify away from their core business of calls, SMS and mobile data.

As some MNOs diversify from “core” telecoms services other MNOs have been quietly winding down their non-core services.
Telecomspricing finds that e-services are being used by the MNO in one of the following four ways:
- MNOs offer e-services as part of an additional usage bundle or plan
- MNOs offer e-services as a new stand-alone product or ecosystem
- MNOs offer e-services as part of a loyalty programme
- MNOs are developing their own e-service (whether wholly or in partnership with an e-service provider)

Examples of e-services and the categories used by an MNO
The integration of an e-service with an existing MNO service plan
