Gross gambling revenue in the regulated Dutch market remained level year-on-year at €4.3 billion ($5 billion) during 2024, despite continued decline within the land-based casino segment.
Revenue for the year was on par with 2023, data from national regulator Kansspelautoriteit (KSA) showed. The published figures cover both online and land-based gambling, including casinos, sports betting and lotteries.
It was bad news for land-based casinos, which have been in steady decline since the Covid-19 pandemic. Revenue for the sector as a whole was 5.5% lower at €1.30 billion but still represented 30% of the total market.
Physical slot machine revenue dropped 5.4% to €654.4 million. However, machines placed in Holland Casino venues also posted a rise, with revenue edging up 0.5% to €396.1 million.
