Revamped Online Gaming Market to Witness Expansion as NetEnt Enters Portugal
Stockholm-based Net Entertainment, a leading provider of gaming content for the global online industry, is set to bolster its presence in the regulated gaming market of Portugal. This expansion move, according to NetEnt's management, represents another significant step in their mission to offer their innovative products on a worldwide scale, particularly in regulated markets [1].
Portugal's online gambling sector has exhibited robust growth, with a record quarterly revenue of over €323 million ($366 million) by the end of 2024. This expansion was fueled by a surge in online sports betting and casino-style games such as slots and roulette. The number of registered online players increased to nearly 4.72 million, with approximately 1.23 million players actively placing bets - marking a significant 12% year-on-year increase [2].
Given Betclic's prominent position in Portugal's gambling industry, NetEnt's entry into this lucrative market is eagerly anticipated by online casino players. The preference for playing real-money games in NetEnt casinos is already well established [3].
In addition to Portugal, NetEnt also plans to supply live dealer content to VegasMobileCasino in the near future. Specifically, the contract involves making blackjack and a variety of table games with live dealers available on both desktop and mobile devices for users of the British online casino [3]. Vegas Mobile recognizes NetEnt's strengths in delivering high-speed data, premium graphics, and sound quality, and anticipates a long-term collaboration with the Swedish supplier [4].
Net Entertainment has been a pioneer in the global gaming market for over a decade, supplying high-quality products to operators worldwide. With around 750 highly skilled professionals employed across offices in Stockholm, Malta, Kiev, Krakow, and Gothenburg, the company continually works on incorporating innovative technologies to enhance service quality for its clients [4].
The focus on expanding NetEnt's footprint involves targeting key regulated online gambling markets, such as Portugal and the UK, through strategic partnerships and adherence to local regulations. In the UK, NetEnt maintains strategic partnerships with leading British online casinos like William Hill, Ladbrokes Coral, and Bet365, among others, ensuring their games are playable on popular casino platforms [5].
By leveraging regulated markets where online gambling is legal and rapidly growing, NetEnt aims to create opportunities for sustainable growth and further cement its position as a leading provider in the global online gaming landscape.
