The Gaming Authority achieved total revenues of 38,773,668.42 euros in the first nine months of 2026, representing an increase of 24.36% compared to the same period last year. Revenue from online gambling amounted to 15,798,333.07 euros, with an increase of 38.62%, while revenue from automatic clubs was 9,162,023.01 euros, a growth of 51.82%. Revenue from betting games was 8,369,130.72 euros, with an increase of 8.73%, and revenue from casino games was 4,899,939.10 euros. The continuous growth reflects the effects of improved regulatory and supervisory frameworks, as well as more efficient collection of legal obligations. The full functionality of the monitoring information system enables stable and reliable oversight of operators and financial flows, further strengthening control and transparency. The observed trends confirm the justification for enhancing the regulatory framework and implementing the new Gambling Law, as well as the importance of ongoing government policies in this area, in coordination with the Ministry of Finance.
