North America has established itself as the dominant region in the global online gambling and betting market. The region is expected to account for 39.8% of the market share in 2024. With countries like the U.S. slowly removing restrictions at state levels, more and more consumers now have access to legal and regulated online betting platforms. This growing liberalization of laws has attracted major industry players to invest heavily in expanding and customizing their offerings for the North American audience. Large population bases especially in the U.S. present a highly lucrative customer segment for operators. Further, the region has a highly developed digital payment infrastructure which facilitates easy deposit and withdrawal options, thus providing consumers a seamless experience contributing to their rising participation rates.
A key factor for the dominance of North America has been legal certainty offered to businesses. Major operators, confident about long term prospects, have set up regional headquarters and created many local jobs. This, in turn, is strengthening the domestic supply chains in service capabilities and technology supporting the industry. North American companies are also actively investing in innovation to develop new products. The increased commercialization is boosting ancillary industries such as data analytics, web hosting, and software development in the region.
Africa has emerged as the fastest growing market for online gambling and betting globally. Underdeveloped land-based markets as well as rising smartphone and internet penetration have made the region highly attractive for new online customer additions. Countries across East, West and South Africa are seeing a surge in new real-money gambling platforms targeting their populations. While regulations still need improving, many governments are supporting job creation and investments from established operators. The youthful demographics and growing digitalization of payment solutions are aiding the regional online volumes. Some nations have implemented taxation frameworks specifically aimed at benefiting from the budding internet gambling space. With several African markets still in initial growth phases, stronger regulations could further spur industry scale and formalization.
