The Growing Penetration of Smartphones and Mobile Devices

The growing penetration of smartphones and mobile devices is a key driver of the proximity marketing market. As smartphone adoption continues to grow worldwide, consumers increasingly depend on their devices for shopping, navigation, and social interactions. For example, in 2025, the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI) conducted a survey showing that about 85.5% of Indian households had at least one smartphone. This widespread usage provides marketers with an ideal platform to deliver location-based, real-time promotions and personalized content. Modern smartphones feature advanced connectivity options like Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, NFC, and GPS, enabling smooth communication with proximity marketing tools such as beacons and geofencing. Moreover, the increase in mobile app use and digital payment adoption further boosts customer engagement opportunities. Industries in the retail, healthcare, and entertainment sectors use mobile campaigns to improve user experience and boost sales, thereby driving the growth of the market. With the expansion of 5G networks and the growth of the digital ecosystem, smartphone penetration is expected to boost the adoption of proximity marketing strategies, making it a key element of modern customer engagement.
