The future of the industry
Until 2030, the Georgian market is likely to grow moderately and "qualitatively": operators will strengthen responsible practices (limits, self-exclusion, behavioral analytics), and the regulator - requirements for advertising and verification.
The mobile segment will remain the driver: live betting, personal selections and in-game statistics will become the standard.
Instant transfers and local e-wallet solutions will be strengthened in payments; cryptocurrencies, if they will be used, then within the framework of strictly compliance-controlled onramps.
The product will shift focus to live-casino, fast gaming and esports, with classic slots and sports still providing the main revenue.
Offline casinos will be more integrated with tourism (Batumi/Tbilisi), developing the "resort-light" format with events and gastronomy.
Compliance costs will increase, but due to technologization (risk-scoring, anti-fraud, LTV models), operators will maintain margins and increase business stability.
