Online casino in Denmark outperformed sports betting for the first time since the partial liberalisation of the country's gambling market in 2012. The GGR for online casino reached DKK 2,453 million (27% market share) last year, whereas betting took 25%. The Covid pandemic had a big bearing on this outcome, as it led to a greatly reduced sports calendar in Q2 2020. Social responsibility controls brought in as of 1 January 2020 made monthly, weekly or daily player deposit limits mandatory. The combined G GR for lotteries, online casinos, betting, gaming machines and land-based casinos in 2020 was DK 9.173 billion.
