At the time (Q1 and Q2 2019) it was indicated that the Swedish market had a 91 per cent channelisation figure according to data provided by the SGA. However, this was later lowered to around 85-87 per cent with renewed data from H2GC for the third quarter period.


In March of 2020, it was estimated that Sweden’s channelisation could be as low as 70 per cent according to research conducted by BonusFinder using Google Trends, suggesting a third of Swedish players are searching for unregulated online gambling sites.


Research has shown that searches for ‘casino utan licens’ (casino without licence) increased by 710 per cent compared to 173 per cent for ‘online casino.’


BOS estimates that between 22 and 28 per cent of gambling for the online casino sector takes place outside of the licensed system and between 15 and 20 per cent within the sports betting sector, meaning a drop in turnover for licenced operators. Licenced providers within the sports betting sector lost 16.8 per cent of their revenue during 2019 compared to 2018.


Horse betting, lotteries and bingo remains mostly unaffected mainly because unlicensed operators are unable to offer the same service and ATG and Svenska Spel are strong legal entities.


SVENSKA SPEL Svenska Spel was formed officially in 1997 after


a merger between Tipstjanst and Penninglotteriet, which had existed since the 1930s as lottery companies. Te Lotto was launched in 1980 and subsidiary Casino Cosmopol began operations in 2001.


Today, its gaming business is divided into three separate business areas. Te largest revenue sector is Tur (number games and lotteries), which has a 55 per cent share of Svenska Spel GGR. Tis includes number games such as the Lotto, Eurojackpot, Keno, Joker and Vickinglotto plus lotteries Triss, Penning and SkrapSpel.

Casino games such as online poker, online casino and bingo were launched in January 2019.


Te Casino Cosmopol and Vegas sector has a 20 per cent GGR share and the exclusive right to operate casino games in Sweden via three casinos. Vegas VLTs is the only slot game permitted in Sweden and there are currently 4,299 Vegas VLTs in 1,419 restaurant and bingo
