Economics and statistics

Liberia's gambling industry is compact and skewed toward lotteries and sports betting; the casino niche is limited, the online segment is forming.

Budget revenues are provided by licenses, turnover/profit taxes and fixed fees; employment is concentrated in PPP, lotto distribution and support services (cash desks, security, IT).

Payment base - cash and mobile wallets; bank cards are used pointwise.

Demand is sensitive to household income and the sporting calendar (peaks during major tournaments).

Growth drivers: rule codification, digital payments, mobile internet and responsible play programs.

Risks: low solvency, gray turnover, cybersecurity and vulnerability to match fixing.
