The Biggest Upcoming Changes in the Online Gambling Industry

The online gambling industry has undergone some major changes in the last few years, but it seems like it’s been a while since we saw the introduction of any game-changing features. That could be set to change though, as there are some promising features on the horizon.

More Cryptocurrencies

Cryptocurrencies are set to dominate the online gambling industry. Not only are they quicker, easier, and more accessible, but they don’t have any merchant fees, either.

This might not sound like a big deal considering they don’t typically charge you to deposit, but it could have a knock-on effect. It means sites will be able to offer bigger and better bonuses, such as the massive BetMGM casino bonus code or the many loyalty promotions available elsewhere.

It could also reduce the minimum deposit and withdrawal size.

Choose a Bet/Request-a-Bet Features

Live betting was a huge innovation for the sports betting industry but choose/request-a-bet features could be even better.

These features are already common throughout Europe and have been utilized effectively by many of the betting brands now operating in the US, including William Hill.

Simply put, these features allow you to request bets through email, contact forms, and social media. You can also use them to create your own in-game Parlay wagers. We’re not seeing these features in the US just yet, but that should change pretty soon.

More Immersion

Live Casino gaming is huge right now and its growth has been steady and certain for a number of years. It’s something that seems to attract most players and keeps them immersed, engaged, and happy.

As a result, it’s still growing and casinos are sinking huge sums of money into it. Live Casino gaming pits players against real dealers on real tables. They still play from the comfort of their own homes, but everything happens virtually.

Not only will we continue to see growth in this sector, but it may also incorporate virtual reality and/or augmented reality.

In other words, you could slip on a headset and enter a virtual casino. You can turn over cards with your hands, move chips around, and even engage with the dealers and other players. We have the technology to make this happen, it’s just a little clunky and requires heavy headsets.

The Online Takeover

Despite the prevalence of online casino and sportsbook gambling, the offline gambling industry is still much bigger. In fact, the difference is pretty immense, although it’s getting much smaller with each passing year.

Within the next decade or so, that should change. Many players are moving from offline casinos to online casinos. They prefer the convenience of playing at home or on their commute and as they tend to play more often and spend more freely, operators also prefer them.

That doesn’t mean that offline casinos will go away, but that they will become more online-focused, such as by giving players access to mobile casino apps as soon as they walk through the doors.

More transparency, better tools, a brighter future: MiglioriCasinoItalia revolutionizes the market with new features

 

MiglioriCasinoItalia is evolving, introducing a new suite of features set to transform how users choose where to play online. Already a benchmark in the Italian comparison space, the platform is now doubling down on transparency, responsibility, and advanced tools to help users make more informed decisions.

There are four key new features introduced to the platform. The License Comparator allows users to compare operator licenses instantly, clearly distinguishing between those regulated by ADM and those operating without Italian official authorization. Alongside it, the License Checker enables users to verify the status of an operator’s license in real time.

Soon to be released is the Casino Comparator, a feature that will allow users to compare multiple casinos side-by-side, based on key factors such as welcome bonuses, payment methods, and game selections. With an intuitive interface and customizable filters, users can view platform differences in seconds, making the selection process faster and more efficient.

Rounding up the update is the Playtest Report section, which adds depth to each casino review by showing the team’s hands-on experience with each operator — tested games and achieved outcomes—to ensure an even greater level of transparency.

These innovations come at a pivotal time for the industry. While Italy’s online gaming market is growing, it is also facing increasing regulatory pressure. The new online gambling reform is expected to fully take effect in September, after a deadline extension. This change signals a radical shift on the horizon: higher licensing costs, fewer authorized operators, and a more competitive market. In this changing landscape, MiglioriCasinoItalia positions itself as the go-to, trustworthy guide users can always rely on, providing tools designed to simplify their decision-making.

“Our mission has always been clear: to provide users with concrete, accessible, and up-to-date tools to help them choose where to play — empowering informed decisions,” says Angelo Vecchione, Website Manager of MiglioriCasinoItalia. “These features were developed through close observation of user behavior and from a strong vision for the industry’s future.”

“As the number of licensed operators decreases and their individual market share rises, having a clear and trustworthy go-to resource becomes crucial,” Adds Paolo Strano, Affiliate Manager and market expert at MiglioriCasinoItalia.

MiglioriCasinoItalia has evolved beyond a simple comparison tool: today, it guides, informs, and empowers.

The future of gambling won’t wait. With MiglioriCasinoItalia, users are already part of the next generation of casino comparison.
