Australia experiences rise in two-year remote gambling rate

A new two-year investigation has revealed that more Australians than ever before have been turning to their telephones and computers in order to enjoy some form of gambling entertainment.

Conducted by researchers from Central Queensland University with funding from the Gambling Research Australia partnership, the Second National Study of Interactive Gambling in Australia surveyed more than 15,000 people from across the length and breadth of the giant nation and found that 17.5% of respondents had placed a remote wager over the course of the previous two years. The examination furthermore showed that this percentage represented a two-year rise of 8.1% after the overall gambling participation rate had decreased from 64.3% eleven years ago to 56.9% in 2019.
