2030 Development Forecast (Grenada)
Full article
1) Starting point 2025
Profile: chamber play areas at hotels, social formats (bingo, mini-tournaments), a strong connection with F&B, music and events.
Calls: online leakage to offshore, seasonality of tourist flow, limited personnel pool for evening shifts, payment refusals from tourists.
Opportunities: MICE and cruisers, mobile payments and e-wallets, trained youth, B2B cluster (support, risk analytics, content).
2) Three scenarios until 2030
A) Conservative ("offline core")
What happens: maintaining the current offline model, point improvements to UX, without legalizing online.
Bottom line by 2030: the evening economy is growing at the pace of tourism; the gambling share is stable, the online leak persists; social risks are low, but the shortfall is fiscal and employment.
B) Managed growth (baseline forecast)
What happens: offline standardization, B2B pilot (anti-fraud/support), limited pool of B2C online licenses with RG backbone, co-marketing with hotels and cruises.
Result by 2030: a noticeable contribution of the evening economy and moderate fiscal returns from online; a new layer of digital workplaces; high level of trust in a tough RG policy.
C) Accelerated digital ("export services")
What happens: B2B scaling (support, risk, content operations), online travel mode for non-residents, omnichannel loyalty, crypto option with stablecoins and strict KYC.
Bottom line by 2030: Grenada as a niche hub for Caribbean iGaming services; substantial off-season employment; surveillance and cybersecurity requirements are higher than in the baseline scenario.
3) Key growth drivers (in any scenario)
1. Tourism and evening demand: slots/board games + live music, bingo, mini-events 30-45 min; Stay & Spin/Dine & Deal packages.
2. Cruises and MICE: express formats for "windows" 4-8 hours, corporate evenings.
3. Mobile and payments: NFC/wallets, fair fees/rate screen, "deposit = withdrawal method" rule.
4. Personnel: dealer/cashier/technician academies, short iGaming courses (KYC, support, risk).
5. Responsible game: limits/timeout/self-exclusion "in one tap," night code of communications, hotline.
6. Transparency: public register of licenses/suppliers, SLA for payments, ADR/ombudsman.
4) Expected changes by segment by 2030
5) Politics and regulation: the skeleton of the baseline forecast
Licenses: B2B (suppliers/services) limited to B2C (5-10) with annual revision.
Fiscally: GGR-tax moderate (range 10-15%), annual fee stepwise, RG-levy 0.5-1% for the aid fund, compliance-fee for IT supervision.
KYC/AML: ID + selfie, POP/sank checks, transaction monitoring, "deposit = withdrawal."
Data: daily/hourly aggregates to the regulator; RNG/live audit; SLA payments and complaints channel.
Ad: "easy money" ban, 18 +, night code, UGC zones without shooting bets.
6) Roadmap 2025-2030 (managed growth)
2025 - Offline Standards
Guest UX (navigation, "quiet/bright" zones), mobile showcase and schedules, RG limits of 1 click.
Co-marketing with cruises ("Port-to-Play"), the start of the academy of dealers/cashiers/technicians.
2026 - B2B sandbox
Licenses to suppliers (support, anti-fraud, content), public KPIs for tickets and payments.
Uniform T&C and advertising ethics templates, RG hotline.
2027 - B2C Pilot (cap)
5-10 licenses, data-feed to regulator, ADR/ombudsman, SLA by conclusions.
A single offlayn↔onlayn comcard, missions/quests without stimulating the volume of bets.
2028 - Scaling
Integration of MICE packages, events for carnival/regattas, publication of the regulator's report (fiscal, RG, complaints).
Stablecoin pilots (under strict KYC/AML and "deposit = withdrawal").
2029 - Optimization
Adjustment of rates/fees by KPI, expansion of the B2B cluster, cyber audits, bug-bounty.
Retention programs (end-to-end career maps, certification).
2030 - Ecosystem
Stable evening product + online service layer, export of B2B services, high confidence index and RG metrics.
7) KPIs worth counting annually
Evening economy: Evening spend per guest, 8pm-1am download, Stay & Spin/Dine & Deal package conversion.
Market: share of turnover through licensed channels vs offshore valuation; median withdrawal time, NPS.
Fiscal: GGR-tax, annual fees, RG-levy, corporate and salary taxes.
Employment: direct (hall) and digital (support/CUS/risk/content) jobs.
RG/social block: share of accounts with limits, self-exclusion, response time, complaints and their SLAs.
Security: incidents/1000 users, average closure time, audit results.
8) Risks and Countermeasures
9) Early Success Signals (2025-2027)
An increase in the share of guests interacting with evening events and mobile showcases.
Reducing the median withdrawal and the number of payment refusals.
100% coverage of personnel with annual RG training and appraisals.
Launch of 2-3 B2B licensees with published KPIs and stable recruitment for support/analytics.
10) Mini-FAQ
Can you do without online and still grow?
Yes, but growth will be limited by tourist flow. The online frame with RG delivers fiscal impact and digital jobs.
Are crypto payments required?
No, it isn't. This is an option for mature control: only with stablecoins, on-chain screening and the "deposit = withdrawal" rule.
Will gambling addiction grow?
Risk managed: default limits, self-exclusion, hotline, ad restriction and trained staff.
11) Withdrawal
By 2030, Grenada can turn today's "evening scene at hotels" into a sustainable gambling and entertainment ecosystem: with transparent offline, moderately legalized online, understandable payments and tight protection for players. The basic path is managed growth: UX standards, B2B sandbox, limited B2C with RG, co-marketing with tourism and system KPIs. This approach will add to the tax base, create digital jobs and enhance Spice Island's reputation as a safe, welcoming and technological destination.
