Coverage
Our South Africa RDD sample connects with 41 million individuals for your research.
In South Africa, mobile phones are more frequently used than landline numbers. According to a report by the Independent Communications Authority of South Africa (ICASA), mobile penetration in the country reached 91.2% in 2020, while fixed-line penetration only reached 7.3%. This data clearly shows the dominance of mobile phones in South Africa. Mobile phones offer more flexibility and convenience compared to landline numbers. With the widespread availability of mobile networks and affordable smartphone options, more people are opting for mobile phones as their primary means of communication. Additionally, mobile phones allow for additional features such as internet access, messaging apps, and mobile banking services, making them more appealing to the majority of the population. While landline numbers are still used in some households and businesses in South Africa, the trend is shifting towards mobile phones. It is expected that mobile penetration will continue to grow in the coming years, further solidifying the dominance of mobile phones in the country’s telecommunications landscape.
