After the launch of the remote game mode, the market shifted to the licensed online segment, which increased the sewerage of players and the predictability of the tax base.
Revenues are generated by GGR taxation, licensing fees and fines, and strict advertising and player protection rules curb aggressive growth, but increase LTV and revenue quality.
The economic footprint includes jobs for operators and providers (IT, risk/AML, support), as well as in payment infrastructure and marketing.

Tighter compliance and tax burdens raise costs, leading to consolidation and a focus on efficiency, transparency, and long-term market sustainability.
