Mobile gambling is finally taking off in a big way around the world. We have seen plenty of casino operators offer up games that can be played on smartphones and tablet computers, and industry experts predict that the market will rake in billions over the next five years. Juniper Research recently carried out a study called Mobile Gambling: Casinos, Lotteries & Betting 2013-2018.

In it, the research team outlined a number of predictions for the mobile gambling market, estimating that 100 million more users will start gambling on their mobile devices by 2018. The report also stated that mobile gambling wagers would increase to $62 during the next five years. The researchers found that many gamblers are making the switch to mobile devices because they are more convenient.

For example, punters who want to make in-game wagers on sports can simply take out their phone and place their bet – a much more convenient option than logging on to their computer. It also allows for a dual-screen experience, as players can continue carrying on other tasks while they wager on mobile pokies and other casino games.

Since more players are making the shift to mobile gambling, more operators are interested in offering mobile-capable services. We are seeing a huge increase in the number of online casino firms launching mobile casino apps, which allow customers to play games, conduct banking and manage their accounts from their mobile phones and tablet computers. Now, is certainly the perfect time to get involved in the mobile gambling market.

While there is plenty of competition, we are still very much on the ground floor. It is best to get started now and secure a spot before the mobile gambling market becomes oversaturated.
