Gambling Trends to Follow in 2020

Published

One of the key success factors of any industry is the ability to adapt to the new era. This has become truer in recent years when technology introduces hundreds of new possibilities every day. We have already seen many successful companies that refuse to adapt to change, and we all know how that ended for Blockbuster or Kodak.

Of course, the casino industry, which has benefited significantly from the Internet, is constantly reinventing, and new trends emerge every year that are worth checking out:

Safer Games

Although casino scams are becoming less common, new technologies like Fair Go Casino Login are deployed by the gambling industry to avoid any issue. The main focus of improvements in this area are:

  • Two-factor authentication and advanced login that includes facial recognition;
  • Faster withdrawals;
  • KYC (Known Your Customer) Processes;
  • Legal compliance.

A safer industry works in many ways: new customers check positive reviews online, and current players have more confidence to play even higher.

Cryptocurrencies

Cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin or Ethereum have been among us for more than ten years, and their technological advances can be used in many industries.

Many casinos, especially those that operate in “gray” markets, have added Bitcoin to their cashiers and process deposit and withdrawals in cryptos around the world. Another great benefit, besides anonymity, is that the transaction fee is meager, which saves money for both players and casinos.

The backbone of cryptos, the blockchain, is also used to develop new casino technologies that make the entire betting process more transparent and secure.

Live Dealer and Exclusive Games

Offering exclusive perks is a global trend, used by many industries, from clothing to gaming. Exclusive games can include unique designs, added prize pools, or even branded games with movies or rock bands.

And there is a trend for those players who like betting but don’t trust online software: live dealer games. The name is very explanatory: casinos organize a location with live cameras and different games (Blackjack, Roulette, Baccarat, etc.), and gamblers can bet from their place watching the action live.

In 2020, more and more casinos will continue to add live games and more features that will bring casino emotions to players’ homes.

Mobile Gaming

Today it’s common to buy any good from a gadget. No matter what you need, it’s possible to get it using one of many apps available.

Now, virtually all casinos have a mobile client, or at least and HTML5 version, friendly with web browsers. Betting from a smartphone in sports or any casino game is a revolution that has just begun. The challenges are to successfully adapt the games to smaller screens without losing any essential visual element and develop interfaces for touch screens.

Mobile payments are also a dominant trend, so in the short term, casinos can strengthen their relationship with e-wallets to improve the payment speed.

Surely in 2020 and the following years, we’ll witness more changes in the casino industry: new trends will emerge with new tech developments that the casino industry will adapt immediately to enhance the user experience.

CreedRoomz has brought footballer Ronaldinho to its headquarters in Yerevan, where the company filmed an “exclusive interview” with the former player in connection with two new live casino game shows, Marble Cup and Kickoff Roulette. CreedRoomz said Ronaldinho is the global ambassador for both titles.

In the interview, Ronaldinho said: “For me, it’s a great joy to be a part of this partnership. Since arriving here at the office, everyone has treated me with great affection. I already feel at home, very happy.” Asked to choose between the two games, he added: “Honestly, it’s difficult to choose one, both are wonderful, I loved them, so it’s very difficult to choose one, I think everyone will really like them, I think the whole world will really enjoy them.”

Ronaldinho also described his first impressions of the studio and gameplay: “I was surprised and very happy, everything is very beautiful, everything is very innovative, so I believe that’s why everyone will really like them, so I’m looking forward to everyone starting to enjoy them a lot.”

On why CreedRoomz expects the titles to gain traction, he said: “These are different games. I think that will attract attention, the fact that football is a global passion also helps, so I believe everyone will like it for those reasons.. and for the innovation of everything that is happening.”

CreedRoomz linked the interview to upcoming “World Cup and R10 Tournaments,” with Ronaldinho closing by telling fans: “A message of gratitude for the continued affection. I’m very happy and excited. for the next competitions for the next games, the games are all ready, I hope everyone enjoys them and everyone be very happy and have good times together.”

Soft2Bet has launched MEGA Shoot, a football-themed gamification engine designed around the 2026 FIFA World Cup, aimed at helping sportsbook operators retain players during the tournament.

The product will be deployed across selected Soft2Bet brands including Betinia, Swiper, Campobet, ToonieBet and Elabet, with availability spanning markets including Denmark, Greece, Mexico, New Jersey, Ontario, Romania, and the rest of Canada, according to the company.

MEGA Shoot uses a player-versus-player best-of-five penalty shootout format. Players alternate between striker and goalkeeper, with the striker selecting where to shoot and the goalkeeper selecting where to defend. Each round resolves as a goal or a save before roles switch.

Soft2Bet said early internal results show 31.9% engagement among active players across selected brands, with 71.2% of MEGA Shoot players going on to play a second match. The company also claims a 13.5% player retention uplift.

Yoel Zuckerberg, Chief Product Officer at Soft2Bet, said: “The World Cup runs from 11 June to 19 July, so retention has to work across the full tournament calendar. MEGA Shoot gives operators a football game that players can understand quickly, with head-to-head competition tied to the sport they already follow. With almost 32% engagement among active players and about 71% converting into a second match, the early data shows how tournament-led gamification can strengthen sportsbook engagement during major football events.”
