Online Gambling Platforms Gained Larger User Base With Pandemic As A Driver Of The Global Online Gaming Market 2020Reading Time: 3 minutes

 

Due to the social distancing restrictions imposed because of the coronavirus outbreak, brick and mortar gambling places remained closed, due to which online gambling platforms gained a larger user base. People were forced to sit at home during the lockdown and this increased internet traffic on all fronts. More people frequently visited gambling websites and thousands of new users registered every day. According to research firm Global Poker, the US has witnessed an increase of first-time online poker players by 255% since the coronavirus lockdowns began. Overall, the poker industry has experienced a 43% growth since April 2020. Some countries saw such increases as an opportunity and modified their online-gambling laws. For example, Belarus legalized online casinos and Armenia made some changes to its existing laws. The increasing popularity of gambling apps and social gambling will propel the growth of the mobile gambling market in the forecast period, and several online-gambling platforms increased their marketing and promotional activities in the form of extra tournaments and bonuses to attract more players as well.

With these drivers and the current situation of the world, the online gambling market size is expected to grow from $58.96 billion in 2019 to $92.86 billion in 2023 at a rate of 12.0%. The market is expected to then grow to $113.12 billion in 2025 at a CAGR of 10.4%.

The Business Research Company’s report titled Online Gambling Market Global Report 2020-30: COVID-19 Growth and Change covers major online gambling companies, online gambling market share by company, online gambling manufacturers, online gambling infrastructure market size, and online gambling market forecasts. The report also covers the global online gambling market and its segments. The online gambling market is segmented by game type into betting, casino, lottery, poker, online bingo, others and by device into desktop, mobile, others.

With increasing apps and social gambling, online gambling companies are investing in building mobile platforms for their games to increase accessibility and convenience for users. The availability of smartphones with high-end features such as extended storage, high-end graphics and faster processing speeds at reasonable prices incentivize online gambling companies to make mobile-based applications. Also, mobile gambling offers significant benefits, including more deposit options, loyalty programs, and the option to play with anyone anywhere across the globe. According to App Annie, in 2020, 70% of total gambling revenue is expected to come from mobile gambling.

Along with the ease of mobile apps, companies in the online gambling market are increasingly investing in Artificial Intelligence (AI) for improving the overall experience for customers. With the help of AI, personalization for each user is possible as the technology can analyze the preference of the user in terms of game selection and offer a customized welcome page accordingly, helping the user to save time spent on looking for the right game. AI also helps in providing customer support in the form of chat-bots for resolving queries. Behavior patterns and gaming frauds can also be checked, which helps in preventing frauds and locks out scammers. Technologies such as augmented reality and virtual reality are being implemented as well, giving a more immersive and realistic experience to their users.

Beyond such high-tech updates, online gambling companies are using several tactics to gain more users. Some provide F2P (free to play) types of game products, commonly referred to as freemium. These games do not make any money for the company directly, but revenues are made through upgrades and additions of certain features and improvements by the user. The user pays a minimal amount for different kinds of virtual offerings and other game products to improve the gaming experience. This model allows online gambling companies to increase their user base and have more active players on their platforms who would eventually make a purchase. Currently, many online casinos are offering a free play version of some of their games. Companies innovating their platforms according to the increasing number of customers and their preferences will allow the online gambling market to continue to grow.

Reading Time: 2 minutes

SYNOT Group has installed its premium gaming systems, Firebird Red and Firebird Blue, in the most prestigious gaming venues in central Dublin. Specifically, the luxury casinos Amusement City and Playland, both icons of the gaming business in the Irish capital.

Six UP2-32 cabinets featuring the Firebird systems and the Mystery Jackpot have been installed at the premium Amusement City Casino, located in the famous Temple Bar district of Dublin.

“Our goal is to provide players with top-notch entertainment and a vibrant yet cosy atmosphere. Amusement City offers an experience reminiscent of Las Vegas, with hundreds of gaming machines from traditional reels to interactive video terminals,” said Antoinette Kennedy, owner of Amusement City, one of Ireland’s leading gaming clubs.

At Playland Casino, located right in the heart of Dublin, four UP2-32 cabinets have been newly installed. These are also equipped with the popular Firebird Red and Firebird Blue systems and complemented by the Mystery Jackpot, which enhances the excitement and overall gaming experience.

Not Just Data: A Record of RocketPlay Player Voices

Published

on

In iGaming, reports often highlight numbers — deposits, conversion rates, retention, and other performance indicators. But behind these figures lies another equally important story: how players experience fun, form habits, and integrate games into their daily lives. This article looks at that side of gaming, with RocketPlay’s recent community project offering an example.

This year, RocketPlay Casino launched a project to better understand how players approach online gaming and add fun to their daily life. The goal was to explore the perception of online gaming not through statistics alone, but by hearing directly from the community.

The starting point was a gap the team noticed in existing industry reports: while numbers and performance metrics are widely available, there was little data on how players themselves describe their habits and approaches to fun. To address this, RocketPlay prepared a survey and shared it with its community.

Within several weeks, approximately 1500 responses were collected. The input varied in form: some participants wrote just a few lines about how they like spending evenings playing, while others submitted long, structured notes of their gameplay experience — almost like personal guides.

Some respondents swore by the particular time of spinning during the day. Many tied their approach to personal rituals, favorite slots, or small traditions. No two answers were the same, and together they showed how many ways there are to approach fun through games.

“We were amazed by how open and thoughtful our community was,” says Alex Martin, PR Manager at RocketPlay. “The honesty and detail went far beyond what we expected, and we’re grateful for their openness. I believe this gave us an even deeper connection with our community, turning stories into insights we can measure.”

Each answer felt like a depiction of the modern gaming experience  — how different people add fun, mix it with luck, and turn play into enjoyment. Having such a wealth of insights, the team realized they had created something like a collective and warm memory of the fun time – dozens of tips, hundreds of personal stories, and countless small details were taken together.

At the start, RocketPlay did not intend to publish anything from the dialogue with players. But the team decided to keep these warm reflections for themselves and friends, so the answers were brought together in one collection — the RocketWisdom book.

At this stage, RocketPlay does not plan to make the book publicly available. Still, the team is considering different ways to keep the material connected to the community — perhaps through future collaborations or special projects. For now, the collection remains an exclusive record of how players themselves describe their play, leaving space for new formats and ideas ahead.

For RocketPlay, the key insight was clear: talk with your players — they сould bring inspiration behind every activity you launch. Ask questions, listen to their stories, and you’ll discover more than numbers can show. This dialogue became a record of how people enjoy gaming — their stories and habits will inspire future community projects. Because behind every device there is always a person.

For some, gaming is like a quiet morning coffee, a walk with their dog, or the joy of planting something new in the garden. For others, it’s a way to unwind after work, connect with friends across the world, or simply add a small spark of joy to the day. Data and numbers give the industry direction, but it’s emotions and everyday rituals that make it truly meaningful and alive.
