OVERVIEW The amended gaming regulations (SpielV) in Germany in 2006 have enabled new AWPs to enter the market including multiplayers which are now proving very popular. New technical directives came into play in 2009 which means that all AWPs must now be converted or replaced by January 2011 to correspond with the new TR4.1. Maximum win is now €1,000 and the AWPs must have a game pause of five minutes after one hour of uninterrupted play.
Turnover for the German industry in 2009 for all three sectors came to €4.52bn, an increase of 2.5 per cent compared to 2008. Of this €3.43bn was from the operating sector with the majority €3.34bn from the AWP sector. The number of AWPs has increased over the last few years from 207,000 in 2007 to 212,000 last year.
More than 70,000 people are employed in the German gambling industry. All casinos in the 16 German states pay a casino gambling tax of around €400m and employ around 5,000 people. Gross revenue for the casino sector last year was €618m. The expectation for the online gaming market is that individual states will break rank in 2011 and offer regulated Internet gaming before the inevitable law change in 2012, which will allow each state to offer online gaming following the ban in 2009.
