Minimum Deposit Casinos Reveals: Gen Z and Global Players Are Moving On From Credit Cards
WATERFORD, Ireland, July 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Minimum Deposit Casinos (MDC), the global casino review platform operated by the OneTwenty Group, has published new findings showing that traditional credit cards are no longer the go-to for online casino players. The change is being led by Gen Z, who are choosing secure, wallet-based payment options like Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Trustly.
The data shows that credit card use among new online casino players dropped by 31% since 2023. At the same time, digital wallet deposits have increased by 118% among players aged 18 to 34. Apple Pay now accounts for 19% of first-time deposits at MDC’s top-rated mobile casinos. Skrill and Google Pay have also seen strong year-over-year growth, rising a combined 87%. Among Gen Z users, 63% say they trust e-wallets more than traditional card entry due to enhanced security, while 54% say they prefer payment methods that don’t expose their banking information directly to the casino. Tools like Trustly, which offer bank-verified payments with no separate sign-up, now account for over 40% of instant withdrawals in Sweden and Finland, often completing in under 5 minutes.
“This shift is about more than just technology,” said a lead analyst at MDC. “It reflects a real change in player expectations. They want payment methods that match the speed and privacy of their everyday digital lives.”
The trend is consistent across global markets. In Canada, Interac is the preferred method due to its direct bank access. In Finland and Sweden, Trustly with BankID sets the standard. UK players still favor debit cards and PayPal, while in New Zealand, Visa and Mastercard remain common, though POLi is becoming more popular.
MDC has published a full country-by-country guide comparing the best casino payment methods for 2025. It includes rankings, speed comparisons, and tips on which options work best depending on where players live.

WATERFORD, Ireland, June 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Minimum Deposit Casinos (MDC), a global iGaming review hub and division of the OneTwenty Group, has released a new report analyzing Macau’s record-breaking gaming revenue in May 2025.
According to the Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau, Macau’s gross gaming revenue (GGR) reached MOP 21.19 billion (US$2.62 billion) in May, marking the highest monthly total since January 2020. This figure represents a 12.4% increase from April and a 5% rise compared to May 2024.
The surge was largely driven by the Labor Day Golden Week holiday from May 1-5, which attracted over 850,000 visitors to Macau. The mass market segment contributed 75% of the total revenue, highlighting a shift towards broader, non-VIP gaming activities.
“This rebound underscores the resilience of the global gaming industry,” said a senior analyst at MDC. “For players seeking low-deposit options, the thriving mass market in Macau presents new opportunities for accessible gaming experiences.”
MDC’s report also notes that May’s revenue reached 81.7% of the levels seen in May 2019, indicating a strong recovery trajectory. Analysts are optimistic about continued growth, with some revising their forecasts upward for the remainder of 2025.

Minimum Deposit Casinos Analyzes Ohio’s Proposed Online Casino Bill and the Rising Push to Ban Sweepstakes Gambling
WATERFORD, Ireland, May 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Minimum Deposit Casinos (MDC), a global iGaming review hub and division of the OneTwenty Group, has released a new report analyzing the implications of House Bill 298 — a proposed piece of legislation that could reshape the online gambling landscape in Ohio.
The bill, introduced by Rep. Jay Edwards, seeks to legalize online casino gambling in the state but includes strict provisions. Only land-based casinos and racino operators would be eligible to hold licenses. In a bold move, the bill also proposes a complete ban on sweepstakes-style online gaming, a model that has grown rapidly in states where traditional online casinos remain illegal.
“What’s happening in Ohio is part of a much larger national trend,” said a senior analyst at MDC. “We’re seeing more states move to eliminate unregulated sweepstakes platforms in favor of licensing structured, taxed, and consumer-protected online casinos.”
If passed, the bill would place Ohio among the growing list of states — including Montana, Louisiana, and New York — taking aim at dual-currency sweepstakes sites. These sites often operate in legal grey areas, offering virtual currencies that can be exchanged for real cash prizes without formal gambling licenses.
MDC’s report outlines the potential market impact, including shifts in affiliate marketing models, player migration to regulated platforms, and increased scrutiny across the U.S. gambling ecosystem.

Minimum Deposit Casinos Releases Analysis on How the US-China Trade War Could Impact Global Online Gambling
WATERFORD, Ireland, April 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Minimum Deposit Casinos (MDC), a leading global casino resource portal and division of the OneTwenty Group, has released a new analysis highlighting the potential impact of the US-China trade war on the global online casino industry.
As tensions escalate between the two economic giants, MDC warns that the effects may reach far beyond Asian casino stocks — affecting the infrastructure that powers online gambling platforms worldwide.
Casino operators with heavy exposure to Asia, such as Melco Resorts and Las Vegas Sands, have seen share prices drop by as much as 9.8%. Meanwhile, U.S.-based companies like Wynn Resorts and MGM International have also experienced notable declines. But MDC’s expert analysis suggests this could be just the tip of the iceberg.
“The first impacts won’t come from gambling laws but from tech and finance disruptions,” says a leading analyst at MDC. “Online casinos rely on international payment networks, cloud hosting, and fintech tools. If those start getting caught in the crossfire, players and operators everywhere will feel it.”
MDC’s report outlines potential risks including delayed payouts, currency volatility, tighter financial regulations, and increased costs for cloud-based operations. While land-based casino stocks face short-term dips, the digital gambling world could be facing a longer-term restructuring.
Despite the uncertainty, MDC remains committed to monitoring trends and keeping players informed as the industry adapts to a shifting global economy.
