Gross gambling revenue (GGR) in Europe hit €123.4 billion ($133.4 billion) in 2024, a 5% year-on-year increase, according to data from the European Gaming and Betting Association (EGBA) and H2 Gambling Capital.

Published [Monday], “European Gambling Market – Key Figures 2025 Edition” covers all European Union member states, plus the UK. It includes analysis of provisional data for both the online and land-based gambling markets during 2024.

Growth was evident across online and land-based gambling activities, but the former saw the steepest increase in GGR. In total, provisional online GGR climbed 11.7% year-on-year to €47.9 billion, or 39% of total GGR for the year.

Gaming accounted for €24.6 billion of this figure, with €23.2 billion attributed to casino-type games, including slots.
