KZN Provincial Treasury - Africa Prepaid Mobile Price Index 2012: South Africa

2014-03-11

South Africa compares poorly to 46 other African countries for prepaid mobile affordability.  Ranked only 32, South Africa is now way behind countries where the regulator has enabled competition by enforcing cost based mobile termination rates that have resulted in falling prices for consumers. Only a couple of years ago South Africa and Namibia shared the same termination prices and similar end users prices. Namibia is now enjoys amongst the cheapest mobile prepaid prices in Africa following the slashing of its termination rates which are now close to cost, enabling real pricing pressure on incumbents.
