PT XL Axiata's revenue from SMS (short messages) decreased by 14.39 percent during the 2013-2015 period. In 2015 alone, it fell by more than 17 percent compared to 2014. The emergence of social media offering messaging applications has led people to abandon SMS services on their mobile phones.

Meanwhile, Indosat and Telkomsel still recorded increased revenue from short messages. During the 2013-2015 period, Telkomsel's SMS revenue grew by 8.25 percent, and Indosat's also increased by 7.21 percent. The large number of mobile phone users who have not yet used data services means that the demand for short message services in Indonesia remains high.
