This statistic displays the SMS (Short Message Service) messaging revenues in Spain from 2004 to 2020. From 2016, the source added the traffic related to messaging A2P* (application to person) to the total figures, but this combination of P2P (person to person) and A2P was not reflected in the turnover, which continued its downward trend. Between 2004 and 2020 the national SMS messaging revenue decreased around 85 percent, from 1.4 billion euros to 180 million euros.

(in million euros)
* A2P traffic added in 2016. A2P is the process of sending mobile messages from an application to a mobile user. Businesses can use it in several technical modes to communicate with consumers, authenticate users of online services, or deliver time-sensitive alerts. In all the cases, communication is initiated from a business application, and not an individual’s mobile phone, as is the case with P2P SMS.
Typical examples of A2P SMS include banking notifications, critical alerts, SMS-based two factor authentication, automatic booking confirmations, loyalty programs and marketing notifications etc.
