On its own Africa’s gaming space is projected to be the biggest by 2050 as the continent will be home to the youngest population in the world and by then it will be close to 80% developed. Some of the key factors propelling the rampant growth in the continent include; the rampant internet penetration of the continent. Even the great billionaire Elon Musk has his internet-providing company, Star link now venturing into the African continent. There is a massive smartphone penetration in Africa as well. It’s estimated that close to 75% of the 1.4 billion Africans now have access to a smartphone. Actually, 95% of African gamers use their mobile phones to gamble or play games. Digitalization and modernization in Africa are at their peak and the number of gamers with it. When it comes to the sports betting arena, the continent is open to online retail and casino betting which are seeing incredible returns from the massive players here. The continent has a median age of 19.7 years and young adults provide an amble market for sports betting. This can be well identified in countries like South Africa, Kenya and Nigeria where researchers have found out that almost all the adults in the country have in one way or another other placed a bet in the last six months or so.
