Wi-Fi hotspots are internet access points that enable users to connect their mobile devices, such as smartphones or laptops, to a Wi-Fi network. They are highly convenient and allow users to get strong internet connections away from the office or home. They assist service providers or operators in increasing customer retention, building brand awareness, making pay-as-you-go transactions, and creating partnerships with mobile operators for offload. At present, they are available in public places, such as coffee shops, libraries, retail stores, hotels, and airports, across the globe.

Wi-Fi Hotspot Market Trends:
Increasing digitization, along with the deployment of smart infrastructure systems around the world, represents one of the key factors bolstering the growth of the market. Wi-fi hotspots help small, large, and medium enterprises manage their networks at a relatively lower cost. They also enhance data transmission, provide access to various applications, and offer seamless results. Apart from this, enterprises worldwide are implementing the trend of Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) that allows employees to work using their personal devices and accessing corporate network data and resources like email and applications. This can also be attributed to a considerable rise in the need for offering flexibility to employees on account of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak, which is contributing to market growth. Furthermore, due to the boosting sales of smartphones, the growing presence of high-end network infrastructure and the rising deployment of 5G networks, there is a significant reliance on Wi-Fi hotspots in public spaces. In addition, leading market players are focusing on increasing speeds, quality of services, mobility, capacities and reducing latencies, which is anticipated to create a favorable market outlook.
