Telcowatch shows Spark ahead in mobile
Spark
topped New Zealand’s mobile market share in the third
quarter of 2021. It has a 36 percent market share, a mere
sliver in front of Vodafone which is on 35 percent.
Adding in Spark’s Skinny subsidiary’s 7 percent market share gives Spark a clear lead. Meanwhile 2degrees remains in third place with a 22 percent market share.
Figures from Telcowatch show little in the way of quarter-on-quarter change. If there is any noticeable change it is that Spark has opened the gap with Vodafone.
Telcowatch is a quarterly snapshot of New Zealand’s mobile market based on numbers from Datamine. The company monitors 2.9 million active mobile devices. It does not include machine to machine devices or smart meters.
As noted last year, Telcowatch figures show the New Zealand mobile market is stable with little switching between carriers.
