The report, Subscription Economy Market: 2025-2030, identifies digital video services as the leading driver, expected to account for over 33% of global subscription spending by 2030. An extract from the report, Subscription Economy Market: 2025-2030, is available as a free download.

Mobility-as-a-Service to Lead Subscription Growth

The study highlights Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS) as the fastest-growing subscription model, with an anticipated 540% growth between 2025 and 2030. MaaS subscriptions allow users to access multimodal transport services through a single, seamless payment model.

Subscription Fatigue Demands Value & Innovation

Despite the rapid growth, the report warns of subscription fatigue among consumers. Nick Maynard, VP of Fintech Market Research at Juniper Research, emphasized that raising prices or relying solely on ad-supported hybrid models is not sustainable.

“Providers must deliver distinctive value to retain customers. Failure to innovate risks alienating already weary consumers,” Maynard explained.

Bundling and Flexible Management to Reduce Churn

The research stresses that subscription bundling and flexible subscription management will be key strategies for reducing churn and boosting customer satisfaction.

Bundling offers users a single view of multiple services, while flexible management gives them control over renewals, cancellations, and payment options.

“As the number of subscriptions increases, managing them becomes a challenge. Without innovative solutions, third-party apps will take over subscription management from providers,” Maynard added.
