YouGov unveils US bettor research report, which highlights that 43% of sports bettors use three or more sportsbook apps

YouGov has released its US bettor research report, which provides detailed insights into the preferences of US sports bettors.
Utilizing YouGov Custom Research, the report uncovers the impact that ESPN BET has had on the market, which in-app sportsbook features drive bettor engagement, and much more.
The report finds that:
- 71% of 25-44 year-old bettors find the ability to live stream sporting events that they bet on in their sportsbook app important (vs 65% all ages)
- bet365 is the most used sportsbook by 21-34 year-olds and DraftKings is used most by all other ages
- 67% of 21-24 year-old current and prospective bettors are likely to create a sportsbook account with a sportsbook that is associated with a streaming service (vs 57% of all ages)
- 51% of sports bettors are using ESPN BET more than they used to (vs 15% using it less)
“The US sports betting industry is a very competitive marketplace and maintaining loyalty from customers has proven to be difficult for sportsbooks, especially when new sportsbooks enter the market,” said Jeff Morris, VP at YouGov.
“Our research shows that the sportsbooks that incorporate key in-app features like live streaming sporting events can provide an advantage for driving interaction from current sports bettors and attracting prospective sports bettors.”
The report highlights key factors that would influence prospective sports bettors to create their first sportsbook account and provides an in-depth look at how sports bettor preferences vary across age groups.

Mobile iGaming isn’t a trend anymore—it’s the new default.

- Smartphones & 5G: Affordable devices and low-latency connections make betting and live casino seamless.
- Mobile-first UX: Fingerprint login, in-game wallets, and scrollable lobbies remove friction.
- New market regulations: Markets like Brazil are now opening to licensed apps, unlocking millions of players.
- Frictionless payments: From Apple Pay to Brazil’s Biometric Pix, fast deposits are now a mobile-native feature.

Embrace the Mayhem with BGaming’s Joker vs Joker

Rapidly expanding content provider pits two Jokers against one another in the all-new Joker vs Joker slot
Popular iGaming content provider BGaming invites players to enter a multiverse of mayhem in the Joker vs Joker slot. This daring new title puts a spin on the classic Joker theme by leaning into the popular multiverse trend and pitting two Jokers against one another.
Joker vs Joker combines a nostalgic 1950s comic book aesthetic with modern and innovative slot mechanics to create a unique gaming experience. The slot is a prime example of BGaming’s publishing efforts — the result of collaboration with the Golden Goat Gaming studio, bringing a completely original creative vision to life.
In the game, two different Jokers battle it out for supremacy on the reels thanks to the innovative Versus feature. Players are tasked with spinning the reels and landing wins of up to 7,500x their stake. Of course, the Jokers have several tricks up their sleeves to help players along the way, awarding mystery multipliers as a result of their fights. The game comes loaded with an exciting Free Spins feature where VS symbols appear every spin, as well as the increased possibility of triggering the Multiplier Wild showdowns with the No Joke Spin mode.
Joker vs Joker serves up a robust math model, featuring medium-volatility gameplay and the strong RTP of 95.50%. Players can also skip the queue and trigger the Free Spins bonus by using the game’s Buy Bonus feature.
Nikita Zavadsky, Custom Games Product Owner at BGaming, said: “Multiversal action is everywhere you look these days, and we decided to get the online slot world in on the action.
Joker vs Joker has allowed our team to express ourselves creatively and put a new spin on the iconic Joker theme. We are also very proud of the game’s retro visuals and design, and are delighted to have worked alongside Golden Goat Gaming in developing the slot.”
