The service reaches around 85% of urban Australia, using commercial FM broadcasters in seven cities, as well as via XML for online and smartphone applications. The service is available on GPS navigation systems including [[Navman]], [[Mio Technology|Mio]], [[Uniden]], [[iPhone]] ([[Navigon]] & [[Sygic]]), [[Eclipse (Fujitsu)|Eclipse]], [[Pioneer Corporation|Pioneer]], [[Alpine Electronics|Alpine]] and [[Clarion (company)|Clarion]].

=== United Kingdom ===

The INRIX<ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.trafficguard.net/newsandresources/radio-data-system-traffic-message-channel/ | title = TMC }}</ref> provides a commercial TMC service, iTMC in the United Kingdom. It is broadcast nationally on [[Classic FM (UK)|Classic FM]] and other commercial radio stations.  The [[BBC Charter]] prohibits it from carrying a commercial service. ITIS provides traffic data on RDS-TMC to major automotive companies (BMW, Mercedes, Toyota, Ford, Renault, Jaguar Land Rover and others). The price of the service is included in the price of the car or navigation system.

This system uses Floating Vehicle Data, which include positional information from over 160,000 fleet vehicles fitted. The data is complemented by journalistic or "Incident" data provided by Trafficlink. Trafficlink is owned by ITIS and provides traffic and travel bulletins to BBC Radio and to over 95% of the UK commercial radio stations. Incident data includes road works, accidents and closures.

Trafficmaster, a Teletrac Navman brand, operated a national service using local and regional radio broadcaster [[Global Radio]] which provided reception across mainland Britain. This system used road-side infrastructure to measure vehicle travel time between sensors placed a few miles apart, and used number plate recognition technology. Data sources used by Teletrac Navman included Floating Vehicle data from fitted telematics devices, 8500 under-road inductance loops, over 1800 CCTV cameras, Congestion Zone charging cameras, Police control rooms plus a proprietary network of ANPR and IR sensors cameras across the road network. Teletrac Navman provided traffic data on RDS-TMC to major automotive OEM brands including VW, Audi, Skoda, Mazda, Chrysler, Honda, Seat and Vauxhall. Teletrac Navman also supplies the Department for Transport with historical traffic data for modelling purposes which is used by central and local governments and their sub-contractors when analyzing road network improvement opportunities.  The Trafficmaster service via RDS-TMC was withdrawin at the end of March 2023.

The TomTom RDS-TMC Traffic Receiver acquires information through an FM signal broadcast by Clear Channel's regional providers. By connecting a compatible TomTom navigation device to the RDS-TMC Traffic Receiver, users receive traffic information via the TMC connection. Traffic alerts appear in the traffic bar on the right side of the screen. Tapping the traffic bar reveals further information, such as accident or traffic delays. The RDS-TMC Traffic Receiver is compatible with the TomTom VIA series, GO 920, TomTom GO 720, TomTom ONE XL and TomTom ONE 3rd edition. It integrates RDS-TMC Traffic information with TomTom GO and ONE products.

In addition to these after-market services, six major motor manufacturers offer RDS-TMC as standard in their U.S. vehicles, including [[Volvo]] and [[BMW]].

[[Ibiquity|iBiquity]] [[HD Radio]] provides a TMC service based on RDS-TMC.
