According to figures from the regulator Spelinspektionen, revenue from online casino games and sports betting increased 13.9 per cent year-on-year to SEK4.11bn, making up the bulk of revenue. State lottery and land-based slots revenue rose 9.3 per cent to SEK1.41bn.
Revenue from charitable lotteries remained very much steady at SEK939m, while revenue from charity bingo games rose by 15.8 per cent to SEK44m.

The land-based Casino Cosmopol chain generated no revenue at all for a fifth consecutive quarter due to Covid-19 restrictions. The state-controlled monopoly only began to reopen venues in July.
