Network API Monetization

New monetization opportunities

Communications Service Providers (CSPs) are now able to drive new revenue opportunities by opening their networks to third party developers via standardized APIs.  

GSMA’s Open Gateway initiative  offers a framework of standardized network APIs developed by the Linux Foundation’s CAMARA project and TM Forum’s Open API project. These APIs make it easy for developers to integrate network functions and data into their applications.

With these APIs, developers can create new monetizable services, and CSPs can take a share of the revenues. TM Forum’s Open Gateway Operate APIs enable the CAMARA Service APIs to be monetized via global aggregator platforms and marketplaces, while our Zero Touch Partnering frameworks enable automation of partner onboarding and lifecycle management. 

TM Forum Operate APIs and Zero Touch Partnering help CSPs to:

  • Accelerate delivery of new services 
  • Offer flexible billing and service models
  • Package APIs as products
  • Build and extend partner ecosystems
