Spillemyndigheden: Danes’ Gambling Spend Increased in August

Recent data from the Danish Gambling Authority has revealed a notable increase in overall gambling expenditure for August 2024.
In August, the Danes’ total spending on betting, online casino, gaming machines and land-based casino amounted to DKK 571 million. This is an increase of 4.3% compared with August 2023.
The total increase can be attributed to an increase in the spending on online casino. Meanwhile, the spending on betting, gaming machines and land-based casino in August 2024 decreased compared with August 2023.
The subdivision of game types is amended
In the monthly statistics for August 2024, poker now appears as a separate category under online casino. This amendment has been made in all monthly statistics since 2012 and causes minor changes to the gross gaming revenue (GGR) for the additional game types under online casino.
Previously, poker was part of the categories “Commission games” and “Other”. The change means that the category “Commission games” is removed and the commission games that are not poker will appear under the category “Other”.
Thereby, online casino will be subdivided into the following game types:
Gaming machines
Roulette
Blackjack
Poker
Bingo
Other
The update has not caused any retrospective amendments of the total GGR for the entire online casino market.
