Developments in online casinos in 2025

Watch out for these developments in online casinos in the coming year:

Mobile first gaming allows players to access casino games anywhere, on the go. Mobile apps allow casino gaming to become an integral part of daily routines e.g. coffee breaks or whilst commuting on public transport etc.

Mobile apps also allow for mobile specific bonuses and special features, meaning gamers can win instantly as well as being satisfying to play.

For a totally immersive experience, players can use a VR headset to enter a virtual casino. 

This technology allows gamers to interact with other gamers, bringing a social element to online gaming, and also with dealers such as at blackjack tales or in slot rooms.

The advent of AI and data analytics will allow online casinos to adopt a high level of personalisation in order to engage and create individual experiences for gamers.

Algorithms will allow online casinos to make game suggestions to suit individual players, offer promotions based on a gamers previous gameplay, and adjust gameplay to increase a gamers enjoyment of the game.

Cryptocurrency (or crypto) is digital currency that exists digitally or virtually. Transactions are recorded and verified using blockchain technology. Bitcoin is probably the most widely known form of cryptocurrency.

Using crypto and blockchain allows for verified transactions, lower transaction fees, and enhanced privacy for gamers. It also offers global accessibility without withdrawal exchange rates, for example. The use of crypto is largely unregulated in Ireland at present.

Gamification of online casinos introduces incentives such as achievements, missions, and leaderboards such as those found in popular video and online games.

These features keep players engaged in games and also adds a competitive angle, with bonus rewards built into the casino games, for example.

Gamification also introduces social features to casino games, such as chat features, or tournaments.

Cybercrime and data breaches is a growing issue and additional security features such as enhanced identity verification may be more prevalent in online casinos in 2025.

In terms of promoting responsible gambling, AI may offer opportunities to intervene in risky game play and safeguard vulnerable players from significant losses. Responsible gambling measures such as spending trackers and limits also aim to promote responsible gambling.

Increased Gambling regulation

Premier Casinos is a 3rd generation family run business with a long tradition of well run casinos and welcomes measures to promote responsible gambling.

The Gambling Regulation Act 2024 in Ireland now brings a statutory requirement for licensing and regulation of gambling in Ireland, including in person and online casinos. The Gambling Regulatory Authority of Ireland (GRAI) has been set up to oversee this.

This legislation also aims to protect consumers, especially problem gamblers and under 18’s. The act includes provision for a national gambling exclusion register, where problem gamblers can voluntarily exclude themselves from GRAI licensed gambling bodies, and a Social Impact Fund. There are also new restrictions on gambling advertising and sponsorship.
