Dublin, Feb. 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The “Lottery Market Report 2026” has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.
The global lottery market is on a growth trajectory, expanding steadily over the years. The market, valued at $331.89 billion in 2025, is projected to reach $346.35 billion in 2026, marking a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.4%. This growth has been driven by the expansion of state-regulated lottery programs, increased consumer participation, and advancements in digital entertainment and retail lottery infrastructure.
Looking ahead, the lottery market is expected to experience robust growth, aiming for a valuation of $421.68 billion by 2030, with a CAGR of 5%. Key drivers of this upward trend include a shift towards digital lottery ecosystems, the rising demand for immersive experiences, and the expansion of mobile-first gaming platforms. Additionally, there is a growing integration of blockchain-based transparency tools and a heightened focus on responsible gaming technologies, which are anticipated to shape the industry’s future.
Online lotteries are pivotal to the sector’s expansion, becoming increasingly popular due to the widespread adoption of smartphones and high-speed internet. These platforms offer a secure and convenient way for participants to engage with lottery games, especially among younger demographics. The UK Gambling Commission reported that, as of November 2024, 2% of young people used their own money on lotteries in the previous year, signaling rising engagement among tech-savvy consumers.
Innovation within the lottery market is also apparent in the development of new scratch games. These interactive games introduce modern elements and engaging gameplay. A notable launch in October 2023 saw a US-based gambling products provider release Punch N’ Play in North America. This game combines traditional scratch-off elements with folded card formats and coordinate-based gameplay, promising additional winning opportunities through novel mechanisms.
Mergers and acquisitions continue to reshape the landscape. In March 2023, Allwyn, a UK-based lottery service provider, acquired Camelot Lottery Solutions. This strategic acquisition is set to bolster Allwyn’s business operations in Illinois by making it the sole shareholder of Camelot Lottery Solutions, known for its comprehensive range of lottery-supporting solutions.
The lottery market is populated by key players such as the UK National Lottery, New York Lottery, Singapore Pools Limited, and many others. North America emerged as the largest region in the lottery market in 2025. The report also covers regions including Asia-Pacific, Western and Eastern Europe, South America, and more, alongside countries like Australia, Brazil, China, and India.
Market revenue encompasses the earnings from providing services such as gaming systems, retail technology, and digital betting solutions. It reflects the value of goods and services traded between entities or sold to end consumers within the market and geographical specifications.
