New Survey Finds Three-quarters of Swedes Engaged in Money Gambling Over the Past Year
A new survey by the Swedish Gambling Authority has found that three-quarters of Swedes have engaged in money gambling over the past year.
The Public Opinion Survey is the annual survey conducted by the Swedish Gambling Authority to map the gambling habits of Swedes. The survey was conducted in November 2024 in collaboration with the research company Enkätfabriken. A total of just over 1600 respondents participated in the survey.
The survey shows, among other things, that:
• 71% of all Swedes have gambled for money in the past 12 months. The proportion is stable compared to previous surveys.
• 33% of all players play every week, which is unchanged from the previous year.
• 84% of players have participated in lotteries and number games, which remains the most common form of gambling.
• 71% of players answer yes, absolutely or yes, to some extent when asked whether they think gaming companies take responsibility for gambling problems.
• 66% know that it is possible to disconnect from gambling via Spelpaus.se, but awareness is slightly lower among women.
