Danes increasingly gamble online
The latest figures from the Danish Gambling Authority show that 54 percent of the Danes’ gambling in 2019 took place on online platforms. In comparison, the figure was 31 percent in 2012.
Thus, Danes increasingly choose virtual gaming machines and betting via mobile phones or computesr over the land-based casinos, gaming machines and paper pools coupons.
In the period from 2012–2019, the total gross gaming revenue (GGR) in Denmark increased from DKK 7.8 billion to DKK 9.8 billion. GGR is the international way of measuring the size of the gambling market. It is calculated based on the players’ stakes minus the winnings, and equals the amount that players have spent on gambling products.
“There is no doubt that the Danes’ preference to gamble online is reflected in the market development. The development in the gambling market seems to follow the general technological development, where an increasingly larger part of our everyday life takes place online”, says acting director of the Danish Gambling Authority Jan Madsen.
Danes gamble via their smart phones
The Danish Gambling Authority have examined the platforms used for online gambling. Here, the technologicaldevelopment is also clearly reflected, as more and more Danes prefer their mobile phones and tablets to computers.
Whereas only 11 percent of the spending on online casinos and online betting took place on mobile platforms in 2012, this share has increased to 61 percent in 2019.
“One of the Danish Gambling Authority’s most important tasks is to monitor the developments in the gambling market. Among other things, weu se the statistics to get an overview of where the market in heading, but also to organise our supervision of the gambling operators and thereby ensure that gambling in Denmark takes place fair and responsibly”, says acting director of the Danish Gambling Authority Jan Madsen.
Second place in Europe
Compared with other European countries, it is only Sweden that has a larger share of online gambling than Denmark. Here, 59 percent of the gambling market is online. The three Nordic countries, Sweden, Denmark and Norway are the only countries in which more than half of the spending on gambling products takes place online.
”There is a huge difference among the various gambling markets and the regulation in European countries. Some countries still have a monopoly on gambling, and in France, where online gambling only accounts for 24 percent of the market, there is still a strong tradition of lotto and betting on horse racing in bars instead of online”; says acting director of the Danish Gambling Authority Jan Madsen.

Altenar rolls out World Cup Lobby event hub for sportsbook operators
Altenar has launched a dedicated World Cup Lobby designed to help sportsbook operators package World Cup content in a single event hub during this summer’s tournament.
The company said the lobby is built for high-traffic periods, with a curated destination where operators can surface relevant markets, statistics, promotions and betting opportunities in one place. Altenar pointed to a “record 104 matches” across 16 cities as the context for simplifying tournament discovery and navigation.
The World Cup Lobby combines Altenar’s sportsbook with widgets and navigation built for major tournaments. Altenar said interactive team and player carousels surface BetCards, markets and promotions via swipeable feeds, with team and player pages providing access to statistics and related betting opportunities.
Other features include integrated standings, knockout trees and outright markets, aiming to keep users moving between matches, teams, players and selections without switching across multiple pages. Altenar said operators can localise the lobby by prioritising teams, competitions and markets for regional audiences, and use player behaviour to surface personalised recommendations.
Nikos Zygouris, Head of Sportsbook Product at Altenar, said: “Major tournaments such as this year’s World Cup create huge engagement and our goal with the new lobby is to build an environment where players can explore everything around the competition in one place.
“The World Cup Lobby brings together markets, statistics, teams and personalised recommendations into a single experience, helping operators to deliver a more intuitive and engaging sportsbook during the biggest moments in the sporting calendar.”

N1 Partners Drops Prediction Markets Vertical — Expand Your Traffic Strategy!
N1 Partners team has launched a new Prediction Markets vertical on the N1 Bet product, which is a new betting format for real events with simple yes/no mechanics. This is the first and so far the only SOFTSWISS product that works with this niche.
This vertical opens up expanded opportunities for partners: it provides access to a fresh audience, and also allows you to monetize and scale traffic from various sources — from politics and finance to entertainment and show business — as efficiently as possible.
What is the real benefit for partners and how does it work? Read all about the Prediction Markets vertical in the article.
Prediction Markets vertical: what is it?
Prediction Markets is a unique betting format for real non-sporting events, where the user chooses “yes” or “no” to the potential event outcome (for example, elections, the Eurovision Contest, the Oscar Awards).
Users can bet on topics in the following areas:
- politics (elections, geopolitical events)
- cryptocurrencies and financial markets
- technology and business
- social trends and global narratives
- entertainment and show business
The format is as simple as possible, does not require experience and knowledge in classic betting, therefore it may be of interest to a wide audience.
Why is the Prediction Markets format worth a test?
It is crucial to note that Prediction Markets is not just another feature; it is a unique vertical that gives access to a new, previously non-converting audience.
Reasons to test Prediction Markets:
- The threshold for the first conversion is lower than in betting;
- Works great with SEO and content traffic (news, trends, cryptosphere, politics, entertainment);
- High interest in the vertical during trending events;
- Opportunity to monetize an audience that doesn’t bet on sports or casinos.;
- It is possible to transfer users to the casino and vertical betting;
- Provides a smooth user path within the product.
Moreover, the format is as native as possible — real events constantly create new reasons for returning players, forming stable retention and LTV.
Thus, Prediction Markets is a great way to monetize an audience that has not made a profit before, and with N1 Partners you can do this as simply and efficiently as possible.
