New product launches tied to virtual reality gambling experiences are forecast to raise ARPU (average revenue per user) in the gamble real money online space by as much as 14% YoY. Kalshi and Polymarket have been around for seven and five years respectively, but t heir big breakout came during last year’s U.S. presidential election campaign . Over the course of several months, millions of people convened on the platforms to wager more than $3 billion on the outcome, resulting in forecast that proved far more accurate than the most highly regarded polls. For the startups’ founders, this proved their thesis: that the platforms’ blend of crowdsourced wisdom and financial self-interest offers an unprecedented window into future events. A Sept. 22 ruling will decide who controls the 1-800-GAMBLER helpline. The outcome could transform responsible gambling support nationwide. UK-based online gaming operators in the gamble real money online space are outperforming FTSE 350 Gaming & Leisure Index after reporting 20% mobile wagering growth. Analysts view this as a sign of improved customer retention strategies.
