Analyst Opinion

The Online Lottery market in Belgium has been experiencing steady growth in recent years, driven by a combination of customer preferences, market trends, local special circumstances, and underlying macroeconomic factors.

Customer preferences:
Belgian customers have shown a growing interest in online lottery games due to several factors. Firstly, the convenience of being able to play from the comfort of their own homes is a major draw. Online platforms provide easy access to a wide variety of lottery games, eliminating the need to visit physical lottery outlets. Additionally, the ability to play at any time and from anywhere using mobile devices has made online lottery games even more appealing to customers.

Trends in the market:
One of the key trends in the online lottery market in Belgium is the increasing popularity of international lottery games. Belgian customers are now able to participate in major global lotteries such as the EuroMillions, Powerball, and Mega Millions, thanks to online platforms. The opportunity to win huge jackpots from these international lotteries has attracted a significant number of Belgian players. Another trend in the market is the introduction of innovative features and game formats. Online lottery operators have been constantly innovating to keep customers engaged and excited. This includes features such as syndicate play, where players can join forces and increase their chances of winning, and instant win games that provide immediate gratification.

Local special circumstances:
Belgium has a well-regulated online gambling market, including online lottery games. The government has implemented strict regulations to ensure the safety and security of players. This has created a sense of trust among customers, leading to increased participation in online lottery games. Furthermore, the Belgian National Lottery, known as Loterie Nationale, plays a significant role in the online lottery market. Loterie Nationale offers a wide range of lottery games, including both national and international options. Its strong brand presence and reputation have contributed to the growth of the online lottery market in Belgium.

Underlying macroeconomic factors:
The overall economic stability and disposable income of the Belgian population have also played a role in the development of the online lottery market. Belgium has a relatively high per capita income, which allows individuals to spend on leisure activities such as online lottery games. Additionally, the growth of the digital economy and increasing internet penetration have provided a favorable environment for the expansion of the online lottery market. In conclusion, the Online Lottery market in Belgium is growing due to customer preferences for convenience and accessibility, the popularity of international lottery games, the introduction of innovative features, the trust in the well-regulated market, the strong presence of Loterie Nationale, and the underlying macroeconomic factors of economic stability and disposable income.

Methodology

Data coverage:

The data encompasses B2C enterprises. Figures are based on Gross Gambling Revenue (GGR) and represent what consumers pay for these products and services. The user metrics show the number of customers who have made at least one online purchase within the past 12 months.

Modeling approach / Market size:

Market sizes are determined through a bottom-up approach, building on predefined factors for each market segment. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use annual financial reports of the market-leading companies, third-party studies, and reports, as well as survey results from our primary research (e.g., the Statista Global Consumer Survey). In addition, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations, such as GDP, GDP per capita, and internet connection speed. This data helps us estimate the market size for each country individually.

Forecasts:

In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the relevant market. For example, the S-curve function and exponential trend smoothing. The main drivers are internet users, the urban population, the usage of key players, and attitudes toward online services.

Additional notes:

The market is updated twice a year in case market dynamics change. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war are considered at a country-specific level. GCS data is reweighted for representativeness.
