The Story | |||||
Figures from gaming news outlet Agimeg showed that Italian sports betting operators had a combined retail and online revenue of €114.3m in July, up 32.4% from the same month last year. |
|||||
The sports betting growth in Italy could soon be just a fond memory. |
|||||
For the year-to-date, overall betting revenue is up 43.3% to €852m, while online betting is up 43.5% to €361.5m. Virtual betting brought in revenue of €21m while online casino revenue grew 26.7% year-on-year to €56m. The government’s share of this bounty totaled nearly €168m. All these growth will soon be erased once the new prohibition on all forms of gambling advertising kicks in on January 1, 2019. |
