Take up of gambling on mobile phones is increasing as more phones offering high data speeds become available. Juniper Research, which is predicting that mobile phone gambling worldwide will be worth nearly $12bn globally by 2010, attributes this surge to the increasing deployment of multiple mobile payment technologies, as well as the liberalisation of remote gambling legislation in key markets, but they also expect lottery operators to play a huge part in driving growth.
