With license concessions in Macau are due up in 2022 but expected there will be extended till possibly 2025 as the COVID-19 pandemic has devastated casino operations it is thought amongst insiders that sports betting within casinos could help the recovery.
No official announcement has been made and it is understood officials are looking into the possibility at this time and not expected to announce anything this year but sports betting in Macau casinos is a strong possibility.
Sports betting has seen a huge increase since the pandemic started and the latest figures on global sports betting revenues in 2019 has the market valued at $85 billion. Macau operators know that sports betting itself would not generate huge incomes as they would most certainly have to work with a sports betting concession, but the attraction to customers and the length of time spent with their resorts adds the value to sports betting within their venues.
