GR8 Tech, the award-winning high-performance Sportsbook and iGaming platform, in partnership with iGB, offers a deep dive into the real opportunities—and real challenges—of India’s iGaming market.

With 1.4 billion people, 954 million internet users, and 448 million interested in gaming, India offers massive potential. But it’s not a market where global strategies can simply be copied and pasted. Success here demands a profound understanding of local player behavior, payment preferences, mobile-first user experience, and cricket’s dominance—insights all explored in GR8 Tech’s “2025 India Report: How to take advantage of the opportunity.”

Produced with the involvement of both local independent market experts and GR8 Tech professionals, the report examines everything from player behavior regarding sports betting and casinos to regulatory and taxation nuances. Some notable insights include:

  • Cricket Dominance: The IPL attracts more betting activity than any match involving the national team. Cricket accounts for a massive share of sports betting in India, with 20 players betting on cricket for every 2 on football and 1 on kabaddi.
  • Mobile-first audience: With 77% of online traffic coming from mobile devices, operators must optimize for mobile-first experiences to effectively engage players.
  • Live casino & slots lead revenue: While live casino games drive the most revenue (56.4%), slots make up 47.5% of the total volume of bets. Instant games like Aviator and JetX are gaining ground, with Aviator alone accounting for 21% of one operator’s GGR.
  • Skill-based games on the rise: Indian players are moving beyond luck-based games to more interactive, skill-based experiences. Games like Teen Patti, Andar Bahar, and crash games appeal to players looking for an active, strategic role in gameplay.
  • Fantasy Sports Boom: Fantasy sports, particularly fantasy cricket, are on the rise and are expected to generate ₹388 billion in revenue by 2026.
  • Localized Payment Preferences: Over 90% of deposits are made via the Unified Payments Interface, making it the dominant payment method for Indian players.

India’s iGaming market is incredibly complex and offers immense opportunities, and we cannot underestimate the value of local expertise for understanding it. This report is grounded in insights from people who live the dynamics daily and have immense experience to share. It is not about shortcuts or immediate wins, but about building a realistic, informed perspective so that when the moment comes, you are ready to act with clarity and purpose,” said Yevhen Krazhan, CSO at GR8 Tech.

With a mobile-first audience, a deep cultural connection to cricket, and rising demand for interactive, skill-based games, success in India requires local insight. From understanding player behavior to optimizing payments and product mix, the opportunity is real—but so is the need to get it right.

To help you navigate, GR8 Tech is sharing “India Report: How to Take Advantage of the Opportunity”—an essential guide to thriving in one of the world’s most promising markets.

Reading Time: 2 minutes

QTech Games, the leading game aggregator across all emerging markets, has continued to maintain the momentum in its premium pipeline, as evidenced by its latest deal with BEON, an emerging force in the slots space, whose first raft of games is crash games-focussed.

Integrating a progressive portfolio from one of the most productive and innovative developers in the sector adds more muscle to QTech Games’ proprietary platform, which is leading the way across growth markets like LatAm and Africa. In a progressive production line that will span different slots genres, BEON is also committed to launching games tailored to specific partner requests, while simultaneously growing its portfolio with a new wave of titles in development.

As a result BEON is building a reputation for creating high-quality, immersive games with standout features that set them apart in any igaming domain, thanks to a smooth performance running off agile mechanics which are dedicated to gameplay precision and optimal retention. Its first five games to be released comprise Skydot, Fury Flight, Redy, Nomad and Orizon, while BEON’s unique Crash Game Generator tool allows operator partners to launch customised content inside 24 hours.

This collaboration delivers a targeted range of localized content, enabling QTech Games to continue to meet the varied preferences of players across emerging markets, while supporting both companies’ ambitions for global growth.

Philip Doftvik, QTech Games’ CEO, said: “BEON’s initial rollout of eye-catching crash games is premised on clever mechanics, easily intelligible gameplay, high payouts and colourful graphics, which are breaking up an often-copycat environment. This kind of content is well-suited to LatAm and African markets, which directly tracks our ongoing expansion throughout these territories. These games are robust, scalable, and future-ready – so, we look forward to seeing what’s next. ”

Saba Chkheidze, Managing Partner at BEON, added: “Partnering with QTech Games constitutes the perfect opportunity for us to bolster our product distribution across emerging markets and deliver our fantastic crash games to more and more top-tier operators.

“It’s a collaboration which marks a step-change in BEON’s growth strategy across untapped markets like Latin America and Africa, where we hope our games will connect with many new players. Aside from crash games, our roadmap is packed with fresh concepts and slots titles that aim to combine engaging gameplay with solid technical performance, ensuring that our partners and players always have something new to look forward to.”
