ClickOut Media casts its sports betting predictions for 2025

As the sports betting industry continues to evolve, the year 2025 is poised to usher in a wave of innovation, technology and strategic growth. Advancements in technology and data analytics are reshaping the way bettors engage with their favourite sports.
ClickOut Media, the established multi-channel marketing company whose expertise cover multiple niches including the betting sphere, takes a closer look at what the new year holds for sports betting predictions and how players, operators and regulators can prepare for the upcoming changes.
Rise of AI-powered predictions
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has already made its mark on sports betting, and in 2025, its ever-present role is set to expand. At the heart of AI’s influence lies its predictive analytics. Machine learning algorithms are becoming more sophisticated, capable of analysing vast data sets to predict outcomes with greater accuracy. Considering variables such as player performance, team dynamics, historical data and even weather conditions, these systems are providing bettors with increased real-time, data-driven insights. For operators, integrating AI into their platforms will be a game-changer, ensuring that the personalised approach guarantees users recommendations that align with their preference and risk appetite, transforming every bet into a bespoke experience.
Expansion of micro-betting
Micro-betting, the ability to place bets on specific moments within a game, will also see its presence within the landscape grow over the next 12 months. This will be particularly true in markets such as the US where sports betting is maturing as a product. With the proliferation of 5G and faster internet speeds, real-time micro-betting is becoming increasingly seamless which aligns directly with younger bettors who favour a dynamic and engaging betting experience. AI again makes its mark within this forecasted shift, with an ever-growing number of analytics platforms using the phenomenon to provide real-time data and predictions, allowing bettors to make informed decisions as games are unfolding.
Emergence of esports
When we think of sports betting, traditional sports like football, basketball and horse racing usually dominate the conversation. However, esports is no longer a niche market, rather a mainstream betting category with its influence set to experience a continued upward trajectory in 2025. Millennials and Gen Z, the digital natives, are leading the charge in esports betting with both groups not just watching esports, but actively participating, placing bets and engaging in fantasy leagues. According to a 2023 report by the Esports Integrity Commission, more than 70% of esports bettors are under 35. As more betting options emerge, driven by technological innovations like AI, mobile apps and cryptocurrency, sportsbooks are likely to expand their esports betting options to cater for a vast tech-savvy, youthful audience.
Blockchain’s growing influence
Originally created for the financial sector and trading of digital currencies, blockchain has been growing its reach in recent years with the sports betting sphere a market of particular interest that is set to make considerable strides in 2025. Sports betting has always been surrounded by a layer of controversy and risk of corruption. Blockchain technology has the potential to revolutionise the industry by offering greater transparency, security and fairness to players. Smart contracts, which automate payouts based on match results, are expected to gain steady adoption. A greater number of betting platforms will continue to also accept cryptocurrencies, putting more trust in the hands of bettors with no sharing of personal data required like bank account numbers or credit card details. User safety will also be strengthened through the reduction of data breaches and identity thefts that are linked to standard payment channels.
Conclusion
The sports betting industry in 2025 is set to be more dynamic, data-driven and user-centric than ever before. With innovations like AI, blockchain and micro-betting leading the charge, both operators and bettors will benefit from a more engaging and transparent ecosystem. For operators looking to stay ahead, focusing on technology, user experience and responsible gambling will be key to success. ClickOut Media, in its role as a global marketing and content company, remains committed to providing invaluable insight and coverage on the evolving and exciting developments as 2025 unfolds.

Peru Reports 40% Drop in Illegal Online Gambling

Peru’s Ministry of Foreign Trade and Tourism (Mincetur) reported that, a little more than a year after having implemented the law that regulates the online sector, it has been able to reduce by 40% the offer of illegal games in digital platforms and applications.
In a public statement, the Executive portfolio in charge of regulating gambling also highlighted that, thanks to the inspection work, 15% of the illegal websites “have left the Peruvian market” and that “payment methods providers and financial entities have been contacted to block services to unauthorized operators”.
Based on this, Mincetur highlighted that “Peru has managed to position itself as a regional referent in the integral regulation of gambling” and that, through the normative framework, it was possible to “protect the consumer, guarantee transparency in the operations and promote the formal and sustainable economic development”.
The Ministry highlighted that with the implementation of Law No 31557, which regulates sports betting and online games, “the country became the third country in Latin America to establish clear regulations for this activity”.
“Since its entry into force in February 2024, 60 technological platforms have been authorized and 280 linked service providers have been registered, as well as the accreditation of nine international certification laboratories,” Mincetur said.
In this regard, the Ministry stated that “this regulation has made it possible to formalize the digital sector, promoting an environment of trust for both operators and users.” At the same time, it has allowed “new investment opportunities, boosting the digitalization of entertainment and strengthening the country’s tax collection”.
