The future of the industry
Until 2030, the industry in the CAR will evolve around smartphones and mobile wallets (Orange Money, Airtel Money): online betting and instant games will become the main driver, and offline points will turn into "hybrid" hubs for cashouts and account support.
More uniform rules for online and offline are expected: electronic reporting GGR, eKYC, AML/CFT strengthening, advertising standards and national self-control tools (limits, self-exclusion).
Predictable fees are important to the state - therefore, transparent tax regimes and the fight against the "gray" segment will become a priority.
Key risks - communication, energy savings and low payment depth; mitigating factors - easy interfaces, offline support, localization in French and targeted promos around football events.
The result is a compact but more robust mobile-first market with increased user confidence.
