The Evolution of Online Gambling Creates New Opportunities for All

Published

Reading Time: 3 minutes

 

The online gambling industry has evolved significantly since the likes of Microgaming and Playtech first gave people the ability to play for cash prizes via a computer. Today, from relatively humble beginnings, the industry is worth billions. Depending on the metrics analysed and the company producing a report, worldwide gross gaming revenue is in excess of £75 billion per year. In the UK alone, remote gambling has an annual yield in excess of £4 billion.

Growth Has Attracted New Types of Gamblers

The industry’s growth since the late nineties has been impressive but it’s not just on a financial level that things have changed. Becoming a multi-billion-pound behemoth requires people and not just people from a small cross-section of society. Although it might be too generous to say online gambling is mainstream, it’s certainly more popular with the masses today than it was 20 years ago. As such, the industry’s demographics have changed. Young men might still be the dominant demographic, but the market is more diverse than it once was.

UK Gambling Commission data shows that the number of women using online casinos, sportsbooks, poker and bingo sites increased by 8% from 2017 to 2021. Of all the people who gamble in the UK, 42% are women. Of that figure, the majority of women play lottery and bingo games online, with other casino games also being popular. We also know from the data that over 95% of people gamble at home, and the most popular mediums are mobile devices and computers. However, the data also shows that there’s a growing trend for gambling on other devices, including Smart TVs.

The evolving nature of the market has forced casino developers and operators to move with the times. We can see this in the games and bonuses available at the leading online casinos. For example, live dealer games were the new frontier 10 years ago. Combining RFID technology and webcams to create an interactive live gaming experience added another layer of entertainment to the industry. Developers such as Evolution initially focused on traditional casino games such as blackjack and roulette.

Clear Divides Appearing within the Market

However, as the market has changed, there’s been demand for so-called “casual” games. This has led to the creation of live game shows that feature elements of TV favourites such as Wheel of Fortune. These games cater to a broader audience who value fun as much as strategy and cash prizes.

The same is valid for bonuses. Today, there are more types of casino bonuses than ever before. A case in point is casino free spins no deposit bonus offers. It used to be the case that customers had to wager a certain amount to release any prize money they won from free spins.  That’s no longer the case. Modern no-deposit free spins bonuses can have no post-win wagering requirements. For example, at Casimba, new customers must deposit £20 to release their bonus winnings. That’s because the free spin prizes are paid in cash. Removing certain bonus restrictions makes them easier to claim which, in turn, fits into the trend of making online gambling more accessible to recreational players. The question now is where will we be in another ten years?

There are almost certainly going to be more innovations aimed at recreational players, but we could also see new content aimed at those who prefer something a little more traditional. This could lead to a divide within the industry. We may end up with casinos that angle themselves towards recreational players and others that focus on conventional forms of gambling. What’s most interesting is that there are options. Online gambling is more diverse than it’s ever been, and this gives developers and operators the ability to be creative and find their own niches.

Esports Charts, the leading esports viewership analytics provider, has partnered with StarLadder, a pioneering tournament organiser. The Budapest Major 2025 marks a highly anticipated comeback for StarLadder, as it is their first Counter-Strike Major since 2019 and a significant return to the top-tier esports arena.

As the official analytics partner of the StarLadder Budapest Major 2025, Esports Charts will provide comprehensive, real-time audience data and insights throughout the event. This will empower organisers, teams, sponsors and fans with unparalleled transparency and a deeper understanding of the tournament’s global reach.

Artyom Odintsov, Co-founder and CEO of Esports Charts, said: “We are thrilled and proud to provide viewership analytics for StarLadder for the Budapest Major 2025.

Superbet Becomes New Main Sponsor of Jagiellonia Białystok

Superbet has become the new main sponsor of Jagiellonia Białystok. The logo of one of Poland’s leading bookmakers will appear on the front of the Podlasie team’s match jerseys. This is the fourth Ekstraklasa club, alongside Lech Poznań, Górnik Zabrze and GKS Katowice, to join the bookmaker’s extensive sponsorship portfolio.

The new partnership is more than just a logo on a jersey – the collaboration between Jagiellonia and Superbet is intended to have a particularly fan-focused nature. The brand is announcing numerous dedicated campaigns, events and surprises aimed at fans of the yellow and reds. The first of these has already launched with the announcement of the partnership – and will undoubtedly delight anyone planning to purchase the new jersey.

Superbet will pay a 100 PLN bonus towards the purchase of an official Jagiellonia match jersey. A total of 1920 jerseys will be available as part of the promotion – a number symbolically related to the year the club was founded. The promotion is valid both in-store and online and is open to all Superbet app users.

“When making a purchase in a stationary store, all you need to do is show the installed application, and for online customers, verification will take place via the email address: [email protected], to which you can simply send a short message, and in response, fans will receive a unique code entitling them to purchase a T-shirt at a discount,” explains Bartosz Malaka, Head of Marketing & Sponsoring at Superbet.

However, this is not the end of surprises for fans of the Białystok club, because if they register using the special code “JAGA,” they will also receive a welcome bonus.

“Jagiellonia fits perfectly into our sponsorship strategy – it’s a club with ambition, a strong identity, and enormous potential that combines modernity with local character. W’’re thrilled to be embarking on this journey together. Our logo will now appear on the fronts of the jerseys of four Ekstraklasa clubs, confirming our continued leadership in sports sponsorship,” said Łukasz Seweryniak, General Manager of Superbet Polska.

“Jaga is the perfect partner for us – with a great history and a huge, loyal community of fans who live and breathe this club every day. With them in mind, we’re preparing a whole package of activations, surprises, and events designed to build even stronger bonds. We want to show that just as Jaga is a super club, Superbet is a super sponsor,” Malaka said.

“I am extremely proud and happy to have entered into a partnership with such a renowned and recognizable brand as Superbet. I would like to emphasize that this is the highest-ever sponsorship agreement in the club’s history, which further underscores the importance of this partnership. I believe the word ‘partnership’ is key in the context of our agreement. I am most pleased that we are not just gaining a sponsor, but a true partner with whom we will achieve great things together,” said Ziemowit Deptuła, President of the Management Board of Jagiellonia Białystok SSA.

The partnership with Superbet is another important step in Jagiellonia’s development – not only in terms of sporting activities, but also in terms of modern marketing and fan engagement. Both parties emphasize that this will be a collaboration based on genuine commitment and closeness to fans.
