The entire global sports betting market in 2025 is estimated at $111.9 billion (IMARC Group report). The esports betting market is $2.4 billion (IMARC Group report). Even considering only betting, esports accounts for about 2% of the total volume.
It’s easier to grow from zero, meaning it’s simpler to increase by a percentage on one billion than to grow by the same percentage on a turnover of one hundred billion. Therefore, there hasn’t been explosive growth in the esports betting sector. This growth does not change the revenue structure of major operators. For large brands, esports remains just a tool to attract a young audience, but it’s still too early to place significant hopes on this direction.
2% is the real estimate for esports.
