Singtel’s new 5G+ tariffs in Singapore highlight how mobile operators could address one of their most persistent challenges: limited scope to grow consumer mobile revenue using their traditional connectivity plans.

Singtel is experimenting with a radical approach to selling connectivity to higher-spending customers. It has rolled out experience‑based plans, enabled by 5G standalone and network slicing.

The commercial success of this strategy is far from guaranteed. However, Singtel’s approach points to a potentially new way of packaging and monetising mobile connectivity that other operators could replicate or adapt, particularly as a means of targeting small, high‑value customer segments.
