The global online gambling market size is expected to reach USD 153.6 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 11.7% from 2022 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The growing consumer inclination toward betting apps and the introduction of the freemium model in online gambling are the major factors expected to drive market growth in the upcoming years.

Moreover, the availability of cost-effective betting applications is expected to favor the market growth over the forecast period. According to the data published by the New York state government, over 650,000 individual accounts were created on mobile betting apps in 2021.
Electronic Gambling Devices (EGDs), equipped with in-built software mimicking the local casino experience, are creating lucrative opportunities for the market. For instance, the Video Lottery Terminals (VLT) are powered by advanced technologies. They can be customized to electronic poker games, video slot machines, spinning reel slot machines, and electronic slot machines. The burgeoning demand for VLTs is opening ample growth opportunities for the market players. To illustrate, in April 2022, IGT Canada Solutions ULC, a subsidiary of International Game Technology PLC, inked a contract with the Atlantic Lottery Corporation to provide 1,375 CrystalDual 27 VLTs throughout the remaining year.
The COVID-19 pandemic played a crucial role in expediting the online gambling demand as people spent most of their time indoors and opted for online games for their leisure. Besides, the availability of secure options for digital payment is also stimulating the adoption of online gambling apps. The market growth will be further accelerated by the increased adoption of digital currency and websites provided by betting and gambling companies.
