The Business Research Company’s Policy and Charging Control Global Market Report 2026 - Market Size, Trends, And Global Forecast 2026-2035
LONDON, GREATER LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM, February 24, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The policy and charging control market is becoming increasingly vital as telecommunications networks evolve to meet growing data demands and advanced connectivity needs. This market plays a key role in managing network policies and charging mechanisms, helping operators deliver efficient and flexible services. Let’s explore its current size, growth drivers, regional insights, and emerging trends shaping its future.
Rapid Expansion of the Policy and Charging Control Market Size by 2026
The market for policy and charging control has experienced significant growth recently. It is projected to climb from $4.9 billion in 2025 to $5.65 billion in 2026, demonstrating a robust compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.4%. This upward trajectory in previous years can be linked to the surge in mobile data usage, expansion of 4G LTE infrastructure, the critical need for precise real-time billing, heightened demand for quality of service (QoS) management, and the expanding number of telecom subscribers.

Forecasting Strong Market Growth through 2030 in Policy and Charging Control
Looking ahead, the policy and charging control market is expected to maintain its rapid growth momentum, reaching $10.1 billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 15.6%. This expansion is driven by the swift deployment of 5G networks, the increasing requirement for managing network slicing, the proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT) devices, a transition toward cloud-native telecom architectures, and the rising necessity for adaptable service monetization models. Key trends anticipated during this period include converged policy and charging across multiple services, real-time QoS and bandwidth management, enhanced integration of subscriber data with policy enforcement, dynamic monetization strategies, and migration from legacy PCRF systems to cloud-native PCF frameworks.
Understanding the Role of Policy and Charging Control in Telecom Networks
Policy and charging control serves as an essential framework within telecommunications networks, responsible for overseeing subscriber policies and real-time billing for data, voice, and multimedia services. It enables network operators to define, enforce, and adjust policies dynamically, ensuring quality of service (QoS) standards and billing accuracy. By integrating policy decision-making with charging functions, it helps optimize network performance, guarantee fair usage, and support flexible real-time monetization of services.

How 5G Standalone Networks Are Propelling Market Growth
The rise of 5G standalone networks is a major factor propelling the policy and charging control market forward. These networks operate independently on a dedicated 5G core, delivering ultra-low latency, higher speeds, and advanced capabilities such as network slicing without relying on 4G infrastructure. The efficiency benefits of 5G standalone networks stem from their ability to create customized virtual networks tailored to specific applications like IoT, autonomous vehicles, and ultra-reliable low-latency communications. Policy and charging control systems play a crucial role here by dynamically enforcing service-specific policies, QoS, and charging rules to ensure optimal performance and resource usage for each network slice. For example, in March 2024, 5G Americas reported that by the end of 2023, there were 1.76 billion 5G connections worldwide, an increase of 700 million connections or 66% growth over 2022. The number of global 5G connections is expected to soar to 7.9 billion by 2028, clearly underlining how expanding 5G standalone networks drive the demand for advanced policy and charging control solutions.
Regional Landscape of the Policy and Charging Control Market
In terms of regional performance, North America held the largest share of the policy and charging control market in 2025. Meanwhile, the Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to be the fastest-growing market during the forecast period. The report covers a comprehensive geographic scope, including Asia-Pacific, South East Asia, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, North America, South America, the Middle East, and Africa, providing a broad perspective on the market’s global growth patterns.
