Meanwhile, bingo revenue increased marginally by 0.5% to \u00a3176.8 million.<\/p>\n<p>Shifting to land-based gambling, gaming machine revenue plummeted by 25.6% annually to \u00a32.09 billion, following the reduction of the maximum wager on B2 category gaming machines from \u00a3100 to \u00a32 in April 2019.<\/p>\n<p>This led to a substantial drop in gaming machine profits to \u00a312.1 million, a decline of 99.0%. <\/p>\n<p>Enhanced income somewhat counteracted this pattern, especially for B3 machines, where GGY increased by 39.5% to \u00a31.54 billion.<\/p>\n<p>Expansion was slower for B1 machines, with a maximum wager of \u00a35, with earnings rising to \u00a3214.8 million, while B4, C and D terminals all experienced a decrease in profits.<\/p>\n<p>Overall betting shop income declined by 26.4% to \u00a32.4 billion due to a reduction in B2 stakes, while the number of shops operating at the end of the year decreased by 7.7% to 7,681.<\/p>\n<p>Bingo halls also reported a year-over-year decline in revenue, down 5.7% to \u00a3636 million, while casino revenue fell by 4.0% to \u00a31.02 billion. This signifies that arcades were the only land-based venues to report an increase in income for the year, with revenue rising by 8.8% to \u00a34.773 billion.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, the lottery sector witnessed growth in both the large society lotteries and the National Lottery. Excluding the lottery operated by Camelot, revenue rose by 13.3% to \u00a3611.6 million, but the total raised for charitable causes decreased by 10.7% to \u00a33.668 billion.<\/p>\n<p>Conversely, National Lottery sales totaled \u00a37.9 billion, of which \u00a35.45 billion was retail sales and \u00a32.46 billion was online sales. This generated total revenue of \u00a33.4 billion, an increase of 10.4%.<\/p>\n<p>Sign up for the iGaming newsletter <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The UK Gaming Commission&#8217;s statistics for the fiscal year concluding on March 31, 2020, reveal&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.8 (Yoast SEO v22.8) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>UK Gambling Revenue Drops After FOBT Limit<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"UK gambling revenue dipped slightly in 2019-20, largely due to a decrease in B2 gaming machine earnings following the \u00a32 FOBT wager limit.\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/spindimensioncasinonodepositbonuscodes.icu\/2024\/06\/28\/uk-gambling-revenue-declines-in-2019-20\/\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_GB\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"UK Gambling Revenue Declines in 2019-20\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"UK gambling revenue dipped slightly in 2019-20, largely due to a decrease in B2 gaming machine earnings following the \u00a32 FOBT wager limit.\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/spindimensioncasinonodepositbonuscodes.icu\/2024\/06\/28\/uk-gambling-revenue-declines-in-2019-20\/\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Discover the Latest Casino Trends &amp; News | Licensed Platform\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2024-06-28T01:59:38+00:00\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"admin\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"admin\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Estimated reading time\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/spindimensioncasinonodepositbonuscodes.icu\/2024\/06\/28\/uk-gambling-revenue-declines-in-2019-20\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/spindimensioncasinonodepositbonuscodes.icu\/2024\/06\/28\/uk-gambling-revenue-declines-in-2019-20\/\",\"name\":\"UK Gambling Revenue Drops After FOBT Limit\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/spindimensioncasinonodepositbonuscodes.icu\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2024-06-28T01:59:38+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2024-06-28T01:59:38+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/spindimensioncasinonodepositbonuscodes.icu\/#\/schema\/person\/7fe3f8540cfe191b1464d5c1c2f0a7f0\"},\"description\":\"UK gambling revenue dipped slightly in 2019-20, largely due to a decrease in B2 gaming machine earnings following the \u00a32 FOBT wager limit.\",\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/spindimensioncasinonodepositbonuscodes.icu\/2024\/06\/28\/uk-gambling-revenue-declines-in-2019-20\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-GB\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/spindimensioncasinonodepositbonuscodes.icu\/2024\/06\/28\/uk-gambling-revenue-declines-in-2019-20\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/spindimensioncasinonodepositbonuscodes.icu\/2024\/06\/28\/uk-gambling-revenue-declines-in-2019-20\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Homepage\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/spindimensioncasinonodepositbonuscodes.icu\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"UK Gambling Revenue Declines in 2019-20\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/spindimensioncasinonodepositbonuscodes.icu\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/spindimensioncasinonodepositbonuscodes.icu\/\",\"name\":\"Discover the Latest Casino Trends &amp; News | Licensed Platform\",\"description\":\"Discover the dynamic world of online gambling through our fresh casino news, honest game reviews, and informative insights.
