Bright future for mobile gambling

Boosted by growth in the UK and other key markets, mobile gambling is set to claim an even bigger slice of the gambling pie by 2017, says the latest report by independent market assessment specialist Juniper Research.

Juniper says the value of mobile gambling could reach $100 billion by 2017, fuelled by growth from an expansion in mobile lottery games in international markets and an increase in sports betting and social gaming in the UK and elsewhere – a development that many major sports betting company financial results continue to confirm.
