Sportsbook Report 2026: Trends, Performance, and a Guide for Operators

DATA.BET, a trusted sportsbook solution supplier, has published its annual Sportsbook Report, an in-depth look at its performance in 2025, and the key trends shaping the European iGaming industry heading into 2026. The reports reflect the company's commitment to transparency and giving operators a clear view of what's working and how to capitalize on it.

The 2025 Sportsbook Report goes beyond the numbers as it unpacks the thinking behind DATA.BET's performance to date. The company saw an average of 23% increase in their clients' turnover, demonstrating a clear picture of what's working in the iGaming space today. The report covers:   

• Industry trends that defined iGaming in 2025 and continue to influence the market in 2026
• Rising tax & regulation across European markets, pushing operators to reassess where and how they run their business
• The demand of low-tier esports tournaments and high-engagement disciplines such as Valorant semi-pro matches has proven growth.
• Key metrics and business results across the company's three verticals: esports, sports, and virtuals. 
• A practical guide for casino brands planning to add a sportsbook to their projects in 2026, backed by proof of existing client base.

We believe that transparency builds trust and moves the whole industry forward. At DATA.BET sits at the core of everything we do, and this report reflects that. With the addition of sports betting last year, we want to show how our product continues to evolve and improve, and how we help operators grow their revenue through betting that works," commented Yurii Berest, CEO of DATA.BET.

The DATA.BET Sportsbook Report is available on the website.
