Mobile Identities and Derived Credentials by Application

The starting point for forecasts is the determination of the installed base of smartphones in the regions shown, based on existing ABI Research knowledge bases. Then, using primary and secondary data, the number of users of any mobile credential program in countries within a particular region are used to drive out a total number of mobile identities in each region. This is then divided down into individual mobile credential applications to provide additional detail.
