Football
Not only is football the biggest sport in the world but it is also the most bet-on sport in the world. With bookies making over £500 million (52,363,000,000 Indian Rupees) in profit last year, on just football alone previous year in just the UK, making it the highest by a few hundred million. The reason football is so big is that it is the biggest sport and is universally watched and loved by fans all around the world. It also has multiple different ways of vetting, whether you want to predict who will win a game or score a goal, or you are watching a game and think a player will get booked so you do some football in-play betting, the possibilities for football bettings are nearly endless and this is a massive factor as to why so many people enjoy betting on football.
Horse Racing
Another huge and universal sport is horse racing, this sport is played and watched all over the world, with multiple of the biggest horse racing festivals happening in different places around the world, from Australia, the UK and Saudi Arabia, it is massive. With all these events comes a lot of betting and betting fans. Some of the biggest horse racing events attract even non-horse racing fans as it is a sport that can give you quick wins or massive life-changing wins. With the newer updates to technology in the iGaming and betting industry you can see all the horse’s information, from the stable they are from to their previous races, to get the best possible bet possible and give you the best chance of winning.
Online Casinos
Another of the huge sectors is online casinos and slots. These two go hand in hand and are most likely the biggest form of betting in the world. Slots are universal, no language barriers or enjoyment of a sport can stop you from playing slots and this is why they are so loved. They have markets all over the world with apps being made specifically for slots and for people to get quick access to slots. The reason people love slots has a few factors: they have great music choices, are easy fun, and have niches that people are fans of. These are just a few reasons as to why they do so well. Also, casinos have more traditional games like Poker, bingo and baccarat which allows to satisfy every type of person who wants to play some games.
What Does This Do For the Future Of Betting?
In the United Kingdom, bookies generate around £13.5 billion(1,414,030,500,000 Indian Rupees) every year with this figure growing each year by a billion. The money that they make pays for their staff but it also goes into improving the services that they offer for their players. Deals like welcome bonuses are upgraded because of the success they make every year. All the statistics we use are only for online betting, the online betting side of gambling has gotten better and bigger over the last decade and even the last few years. This is a big sign for betting companies to focus on the online side rather than the in-person betting side.
This change is massive as it stops companies from needing to employ in-person cashiers, and workers and buy the stores in general which is massive for their profit, and less massive for the older bettors who like the in-person shops.
