Mobile Dashboard – October 2018

H2 Gambling Capital and iGaming Business are pleased to bring you the October 2018 Mobile Dashboard.

The Mobile Dashboard is your monthly overview of the mobile sector in numbers and enables you to follow the evolution of mobile from 2003 with projections up to 2023.

As the charts show, mobile gross win has not only grown aggressively since 2003, but its percentage of overall igaming win has also risen rapidly, particularly over the past five years.

H2 predicts mobile will account for more than 51% of igaming gross win by 2023, although many operators are already reporting that more than 50% of their revenues come from the mobile channel, particularly when it comes to sports betting. As the doughnut graph shows, 68% of mobile revenues come from betting.

Interestingly, while by region Europe takes the bulk of global mobile revenues, Asia/Middle East has a higher percentage of its region's gross win coming from mobile. This is likely to be due to the fact that in some countries, particularly those in Asia, fixed line broadband was slow to develop and many users skipped desktop altogether and adopted mobile as their first internet device.

H2 Gambling Capital is the gambling industry's leading consulting, market intelligence and data team. The company has a track record of nearly 15 years focused on the global gambling industry, its projections have been influential in shaping legislators'  and investors’ views of the gambling sector across the globe.
