Mexico's internet user base has grown to 110 million in January 2025, marking a significant increase from previous years. This represents an internet penetration rate of 83.3% of the total population. The country's digital landscape is evolving rapidly, driven by increased mobile connectivity and e-commerce adoption.
Mobile devices dominate internet access, with 96.6% of users accessing the internet via smartphones. Mexicans spend an average of 7 hours and 32 minutes online daily, with 4 hours and 20 minutes on smartphones and 3 hours and 13 minutes on computers and tablets. This highlights the importance of mobile-friendly websites and secure payment options for businesses.
Despite the growth in internet usage, a digital divide persists. Small telcos are offering help in closing the digital divide. Addressing this divide is crucial for ensuring equitable access to services and opportunities in Mexico.
